The fantasy role-playing game RavenQuest, developed by Tavernlight Games, is set to launch its native QUEST token on Immutable zkEVM, a gaming-optimized Ethereum layer-2 network. This move solidifies the game’s commitment to integrating blockchain technology into its live MMORPG ecosystem.
RavenQuest: A Live MMORPG with Real Utility
Unlike many blockchain games that launch tokens before establishing gameplay, RavenQuest flipped the script by prioritizing a fully functional game first. Released on March 14 for PC, the free-to-play MMORPG has already built an engaged player base over eight years of development.
“We flipped the script: Game First, Token Second.
RavenQuest isn’t just a cinematic trailer or demo—it’s a live, content-rich MMORPG. $QUEST isn’t the product—it’s the fuel for this living economy.”
— RavenQuest Team
The QUEST token is designed with immediate utility, allowing players to:
- Earn rewards for in-game achievements.
- Enhance abilities and maintain land plots.
- Trade on the marketplace.
