The update comes along with gameplay upgrades and a couple of major bugs fixed. For instance, Scry cancellation is not possible anymore, because players were able to see the upcoming cards drawn without spending any energy. Other important upgrades are Full HD graphic features in Settings and simultaneously run status and rune effects, which will make the gameplay faster.
AXS, Axie Infinity’s native token, has seen a 5.5% increase in the last 24 hours, which adds more reason for celebration. AXS is now trading at $21.64 with a massive trading volume of $960,867,747, according to CoinGecko.
