From one moment to another, a trembling rumble roars throughout the space. Earth splits open, land is torn, trees burst apart. The world is shattered into pieces. A gleam of light shines through the darkest depths of the Abyss. Midst the chaos, fractures of the past, reborn as islands, rise high into the sky. Entering the Shatterlands, you have become Fableborne.

Hello everyone! Finally, the time has come to unveil our very special project that we have been working on over the past year — welcome to Fableborne!

ENTERING THE SHATTERLANDS

Fableborne is an isometric free-to-play and play-to-own multiplayer game, combining Action RPG and Base Building with a lot of unique twists, redefining accessibility in mobile games and challenging what competition in short snackable sessions means.

While you explore the rich story and venture into the vast world of the Shatterlands, a realm broken into pieces by a mysterious event that tore the world into chaos, you are challenged to compete against other players for gold and glory.

In the game you scout for new and bigger islands while building and fortifying your base against your foes. As the Fableborne you unlock and upgrade the Echoes of slumbering Heroes as playable characters to raid other player’s islands for resources in asynchronous PvP battles, or hone your skills during challenging PvE boss battles.

VIRTUES THAT THRIVE US

Mobile First Accessibility — With Fableborne we wanted to create a game that is easy to learn and play. You actively move your character with twin-stick control, which will bring an immersive gaming experience in the most accessible way possible to mobile.

Added Values, Not Requirements — You will be able to fully enjoy the game’s experience regardless whether or not you own Fableborne NFTs. Rather than being required to purchase them to play, you will be able to use your well earned rewards through playing to claim the NFT that would previously be out of reach.

Player Governance — You as the community will be empowered and will work closely with us in a collective process to develop the game. Community votes will be held to shape the future of the game and the ever-growing world of Fableborne.

LUNCHTIME ESPORT

We believe most multiplayer games are too hard to master without a significant time investment. With Fableborne we are building a new category competitive games that everyone can enjoy at their own pace in snackable short sessions, we call it Lunchtime esports

Pixion League — In-game leagues or tournaments that repeat constantly in short intervals where players can climb the ladder or progress to the next round in a real-time competition. Pixion League is an asynchronous system, meaning no waiting around for competitors to play.

Multiplayer — Games are better when played together. Whether with a friend or stranger, feel the interactive social features within Fableborne. Play and compete in fair and fun competitions and enjoy the depth complexity core loop.

Play-To-Own — It disrupts the usual ‘Pay to Win’ and ‘Play to Earn’ models in mobile and blockchain gaming. In Fableborne, you can acquire digital assets through accumulating token rewards in Pixion League. This is giving players the option to truly own their in-game character and progression. Protecting player’s investment on a whole other level.

A BETTER APPROACH TO WEB3 GAMES

The Vision — While developing Fableborne, we found that blockchain technology provides many advantages, however we do not believe that restricting access to the game by forcing players to purchase NFTs (or ‘Non Fungible Tokens’) is the right way to approach Web3 games.

Rest Assured — Purchasing Echoes of Heroes, and other types of NFTs that we will announce in the future, is not a requirement to play Fableborne. We believe in an open and fair economy — every player has the chance to own NFTs whether through their well-earned rewards, or directly through the marketplace.

Truth be Told — Blockchain technology will allow us to enable players to own their progression. We believe that the time players spend in the game also counts as investment. With true ownership of their Echoes of Heroes and other NFTs, any time investment a player has spent on the game will be protected, furthermore creating value over time. It will also help us empower the community, which will be closely involved in the development process of Fableborne.

THE TEAM BEHIND FABLEBORNE

We are Pixion Games, a London-based studio that was formed by veterans from Konami, Blizzard, Riot, King, Sony, Wargaming, Pixonic, Ubisoft, NCSOFT, and many other world’s most formidable game studios to develop competitive Web3 mobile game experiences.

BE PREPARED FOR WHAT’S AHEAD

Now that we’ve unveiled Fableborne to the public, we will start talking about the game in detail by releasing a series of blog articles detailing the game lore, game design, our approach to NFTs, and many more topics in the coming days.

In the meanwhile, we have worked on a roadmap to detail our plans for the next months. We will be updating our roadmap along the way, so please head over to the Fableborne website to check out the latest version of the road ahead.
