Fableborne

Fableborne is a video game that combines action role-playing (ARPG), base-building strategy, and Web3-native mechanics. Developed by Pixion Games, it stands out for delivering a free-to-play mobile experience with seasonal content packed with rewards and challenges, both at the individual and group level.

World, genre, and gameplay focus

Fableborne is set in the fictional universe of Shatterlands, a collection of fragmented floating islands that serve as stages for combat, defense, and strategic expansion. Players build and fortify their bases, recruit heroes, and launch raids against other kingdoms, blending combat, strategy, and progression.

The experience is defined by:

• Asynchronous combat, where players attack other users’ bases without requiring simultaneous online presence.
• A strong focus on construction, defense, and strategic planning.
• Gameplay sessions designed to be fast and accessible, optimized for mobile devices.

Core mechanics

Assault and defense

The core gameplay loop revolves around alternating between offense and defense. Players launch raids against other kingdoms to obtain resources, while reinforcing their own defenses to protect progress. Hero selection and base layout directly influence the outcome of each encounter.

Heroes and progression

Playable characters feature unique abilities and attributes that can be upgraded over time. Their progression impacts both the offensive power and defensive strength of the kingdom, enabling different strategic combinations.

Islands and structures

Each player manages a base that acts as the main stronghold. Within it, the defensive army is configured, and both units and heroes are upgraded. The proper distribution of these elements is essential to withstand attacks and maximize kingdom efficiency.

Additionally, players must strategically plan the layout of their base islands to prevent complete destruction during a raid.

Web3 integration and digital economy

Fableborne incorporates blockchain technology to enable digital ownership of in-game assets. Key components of its economy include:

• NFTs: digital assets such as islands (Kingdoms) and other ecosystem elements, with options for use, trading, or ownership.
• $POWER Token: the native asset of the Power Protocol ecosystem, used for rewards, internal transactions, and participation in on-chain activities.
• Staking and benefits: certain NFTs can unlock additional advantages or reward multipliers based on usage and rarity.

The game currently operates on the Ronin network, a blockchain infrastructure focused on gaming that prioritizes low transaction costs and scalability, following its migration from Avalanche during the project’s early stages.

Seasons, events, and ongoing progression

Fableborne structures its content around seasons, each with a defined duration and the introduction of new mechanics, balance adjustments, and competitive events.

• Season 3: recorded participation from more than 149,000 players, generating revenue through seasonal passes and related items.
• Season 4: launched on December 2, 2025, introducing new progression options, additional heroes, and deeper integration of the $POWER token into the rewards system.

This model allows the game experience to be refreshed regularly while maintaining a consistent flow of new content.

Current status and adoption metrics

During its open beta phase, Fableborne has surpassed hundreds of thousands of registered players, with strong daily activity levels within the mobile Web3 gaming segment.

The title is available on iOS and Android, with a technical focus on fast matches, short sessions, and accessibility for both traditional players and those familiar with blockchain technology.

Fableborne presents a hybrid proposal that combines ARPG action, base-building strategy, and a Web3 economy, designed specifically for mobile devices and seasonal progression. Its gradual integration of NFTs and tokens aims to complement the gameplay experience without imposing technical barriers, while its seasonal structure enables continuous evolution of content and mechanics.
