Axie Infinity is a Pokemon-inspired digital pet universe where players use their cute characters called Axies in various games. The Axie Infinity Universe highlights the benefits of blockchain technology through "Free to Play to Earn" gameplay and a player-owned economy.
Terrariums V1.2 is live, adding new ways to boost Atia's Flame. Collectible evolved parts now grant more base Flame, and stacking multiple evolved parts on a single Axie multiplies the boost by up to 2.8×. Players can also connect adjacent Land plots into an Estate for an extra Flame boost.
One change that flew under the radar: Origins and MEO axies now generate higher base Flame after the update — Origins: 400 → 460, MEO: 200 → 240. The team also shared the Forest Theme track for Terrariums on YouTube alongside the V1.2 release, which went live August 19 at 3PM PHT.

Axie Infinity notes today there are 1,376 Mystic axies across 413 owners, and that with AOC Summoning live, new Mystics could finally be born. The team frames the redemption as a piece of Axie history, letting holders roll their crystals one final time for a shot at a Mystic.
