What do we know about the developers? The development team WeMade is known for the MMORPG MIR4, which already cracked the milestone of over 1 million simultaneous players in October. Legend of Ymir is seen by many as a Nordic version of MIR4, with deities like Thor, Loki and Odin.

A peculiarity of MIR4 is that players can mine an ore in the MMORPG, which can then be converted into crypto currency that can be sold for real money. For example, some players shouldn’t “play” at all, but rather be on the move to work in the MMORPG.

WeMade’s blockchain technology will also be used at Legend of Ymir.
