Axie Infinity just launched something big: the Axie Adoption Center. It’s a new way for players to start playing Axie games without spending any money. Now, instead of buying or borrowing Axies, new players can adopt them forever—just by playing.
This makes joining the Axie world easier than ever. The center is live now at adopt.axieinfinity.com.
What Is the Axie Adoption Center?
The Axie Adoption Center is a free-to-use onboarding tool. It helps new players get started in Axie Infinity. Before this, players had to buy Axie NFTs or join scholarship programs to borrow them. This system was great for experienced players but could feel complicated for newcomers.
With the Adoption Center, players don’t need to spend any money or rely on others. Instead, they can receive “delegated” Axies (temporary Axies) to start playing. By completing missions and earning points, they can eventually own these Axies forever. It’s a simple play-to-own system that gives anyone a chance to join Axie’s universe.
How It Works
Getting started is easy:
- Connect Your Ronin Wallet: Visit the Adoption Center site and link your wallet.
- Check Your Eligibility: The system checks if you already own Axies. If you do, you’re not eligible.
- Join Axie Discord: Connect your Discord account, where an Axie Care Specialist will guide you.
- Complete Missions: Use your delegated Axies to finish tasks and earn points.
- Adopt Your Axies: Hit the point target within 30 days, and the Axies are yours—forever!
This system ensures only new players who don’t own Axies get the chance to adopt. It’s a way to welcome fresh faces into the community.
Learning Through Missions
Missions are a fun way to learn the game. Players can use their delegated Axies to battle in arenas, explore the world of Lunacia, and complete challenges. These tasks teach the basics of Axie Infinity while helping players build skills.
The points earned through these missions decide if you can adopt the Axies. Play well, earn enough points, and the Axies you’ve been using become yours to keep.
Axie Care Specialists: Helping You Onboard
New players are supported by Axie Care Specialists. These are community members who guide players during the onboarding process. They answer questions and make sure players get started smoothly.
However, care specialists will never ask for private info like your wallet’s secret phrase or seed phrase. So always verify their roles in Axie’s Discord server.
Contests and Referral Rewards
The fun doesn’t stop with free Axies. Sky Mavis also launched three contests tied to the Adoption Center:
- Referral Contest: Invite friends to adopt Axies and earn up to 1,500 AXS tokens. Each successful adoption nets you 0.5 AXS.
- Education Contest: Content creators can post videos or threads explaining the Adoption Center for a chance to win a share of 250 AXS.
- 1,000 AXS Raffle: Complete missions or refer friends to earn raffle tickets. Winners will be drawn in early January 2025.
Why It Matters
The Axie Adoption Center removes a big hurdle for new players. Buying Axies or joining a scholarship program used to be the only way to start. Now, anyone can try the game for free and even own Axies without spending money.
This is a smart move for Axie Infinity. It makes the game more welcoming and accessible, especially for those who are new to web3 games. By lowering entry barriers, the Adoption Center is likely to bring in more players and grow the Axie community.
For Sky Mavis, this means more activity on the Ronin blockchain and more people joining their digital nation. It’s also a way to stay competitive, as the Ronin Network is set to go permissionless by Q1 2025.
The Axie Adoption Center is live now, and it’s never been easier to join Axie Infinity. If you’ve been curious about the game, this is your chance to dive in. Play missions, earn points, and make Axie NFTs your own—all without spending a penny.
