Immortal Rising 2 Turns Two: Inside the 30-Day Anniversary Event and What It Means for NFT Gamers

Immortal Rising 2 is turning two, and Planetarium Labs is marking the milestone with a 30-day anniversary celebration built around a 14-day attendance check, daily quests, an Anniversary Roulette and a special Event Shop.

By Imani Davis | September 30, 2026

The dark fantasy idle RPG, which runs on Immutable’s blockchain for asset ownership, launched on Android and iOS in September 2024 and has now stacked two full years of live operation — a genuine rarity in the play-to-earn space, where most titles quietly shut down long before their first birthday. For NFT gamers holding Immortal Rising 2 assets, the anniversary event is a fresh window of rewards, and for everyone else it is a useful checkpoint on one of the few blockchain games that actually survived its launch hype cycle. The broader market backdrop remains constructive, with Bitcoin trading around 84,024 USD, Ethereum near 2,681 USD and Solana around 119 USD at the time of writing.

The Hook: A Month of Rewards With No Token Pool Attached

The announcement came straight from the game’s official X account: “The 2nd Anniversary is here! Immortals, celebrate 2 years with a special event packed with rewards!” The post listed four pillars of the event — the 14-day Attendance Check, Daily Quests, an Anniversary Roulette and the Event Shop — and confirmed that “the event and shop run for 30 days.”

Notably, the announcement did not mention a token prize pool, specific rewards, drop rates or shop prices. It also did not say whether the rewards include the game’s IMT token or are limited to in-game items. That silence matters for players deciding how much time to invest. A previous Planetarium Labs competition on the Immutable Play leaderboard offered a 1 million IMT prize pool, so the absence of any similar figure here is a real signal, not an oversight.

On-Chain Evidence: What Immutable Ownership Actually Means Here

Immortal Rising 2 relies on Immutable’s chain for asset ownership. In plain terms, that means the items players earn and trade live on a blockchain record they control, rather than in a company database that could vanish if the studio shutters. Think of it like owning a physical trading card instead of renting one from a shop that can close overnight.

The token side of the economy has real history. The IMT token generation event went live on March 27, 2025, after which players could claim, stake and trade the token. Before the TGE, Planetarium Labs ran a play-to-airdrop campaign called “Path of Ascension,” starting in November 2024. Participants earned soulbound tokens — non-transferable badges tied to their wallets — by completing social and in-game missions, and the soulbound token tier they finished with determined their share of a 50 million IMT pool. A total of 107,419 players took part in Season 1, and Season 2 came with a separate 50 million IMT launchpool representing 5 percent of total supply.

The Core Conflict: A Surviving Game With a Scarred Token

Early trading was rough. IMT dropped 53 percent after trading began on March 28, 2025 — a bruising opener for a token players had spent months earning. JC Kim, CEO of Planetarium Labs, said he was surprised by the fall and responded by publishing a “Message from the CEO.” According to Kim, the team had anticipated some decline because Planetarium chose not to launch at a high fully diluted valuation, arguing that launches with inflated starting valuations are often engineered alongside exchanges and market makers to pump the price on day one at regular players’ expense.

IMT serves as a governance token: holders can vote on in-game decisions and unlock premium content, while players can earn in-game currency through staking and the ranking system. The tension is familiar to anyone who has played blockchain games — the game itself keeps shipping content and events, but the token’s price history reminds investors that play-to-earn economies are volatile and that airdrop rewards can lose most of their value quickly.

Market Implications: Why Two Years of Survival Counts

Planetarium Labs has raised 3 million USD from investors including The Spartan Group, Planetarium, MARBLEX, Immutable, comma3vc and notchvc. The studio’s staying power is the real story. The timing of the anniversary has stayed consistent year over year — version 1.4.3, dated September 25, 2025, appears in the game’s App Store update history as the “1st Anniversary Event and Bug Fix” release — evidence of a studio that plans in seasons rather than chasing one-off hype spikes.

Because the attendance check covers only about half of the event period, players will have extra time after the check-in rewards end to spend their event currency in the shop. That structure rewards consistent daily play more than a single marathon session, which fits the game’s idle-RPG design. For NFT collectors, anniversary events are typically when player counts and marketplace activity spike, which historically improves liquidity for in-game assets.

The Verdict: Play It, But Temper the Expectations

If you already play Immortal Rising 2, the 30-day event is low-hanging fruit: log in, run the daily quests, spin the roulette and see what lands in the Event Shop before the window closes. If you are eyeing it as an investment, remember the cautionary data — a 53 percent day-one token drop, no announced token pool for this event, and zero detail on reward values. Treat any in-game earning as a bonus, not a paycheck.

The healthiest read is this: a blockchain game reaching its second anniversary with a live token, functioning staking and a consistent event cadence is a survivor in a category littered with casualties. That resilience is worth more to the ecosystem than any single reward pool.

  1. been playing since the sept 2024 launch, wild that IR2 actually made it to year two. 14 day attendance check is free rewards if you already log in daily anyway

  2. The Anniversary Roulette is a nice touch but the Event Shop prices will tell you how generous this event really is. Planetarium has been decent about rewards so far

    1. agreed, Planetarium was generous with the last anniversary too. as long as the Roulette spins arent gated behind paid currency im happy with a 30 day event

    1. Two years in this genre is no small thing. I still remember month one when everyone said it would be abandoned by Christmas 2024

  3. 14-day attendance check for roulette spins is classic retention bait but damn if it doesnt work on me. played daily for months back in the day

    1. same, idle rpgs hook me every time. two years live on immutable without a shutdown notice is genuinely rare for this space

  4. dark fantasy idle rpg hitting year two while flashier 2024 launches are long dead. 30 day runway actually lets you grind it instead of a one weekend sprint
