Players spent an average of 8.6 hours in-game over just two days, with the top 2.6% of participants clocking in a remarkable 30 hours. The game boasted an 82% retention rate, and 76% of players were new to the Runiverse, showcasing its strong appeal even to first-time players.
This level of engagement propelled Forgotten Runiverse to the top spot on the Ronin blockchain for games, underscoring the excitement and momentum building around this project. Now, with the upcoming New Foundations Gameplay Event, everyone has the opportunity to explore this unique world.
