Post-apocalyptic survival game Resurgence joins ImmutableX

Quick Take

  • Emergent Games’ first game will debut on ImmutableX.
  • Resurgence is an open-world crafting survival game set 1,000 years after a global ecological disaster.

Emergent Games’ upcoming post-apocalyptic survival MMORPG Resurgence will launch on ImmutableX.

Resurgence is the first project from Emergent Games. In a Medium post earlier this week, the company said it was planning to release a gameplay demo later in the year. MMORPG refers to an acronym for "massively multiplayer online role-playing games," which is a type of video game that combines elements of role-playing games (RPGs) with many players.

The latest edition to ImmutableX comes following Tiny Colony’s announcement last week that it would join the chain from Solana.

An open-world crafting survival game, Resurgence is set 1,000 years after a global ecological disaster. Players are tasked with becoming Earth's new colonists on a radically altered planet to forge a new utopia.
