The popular turn-based blockchain RPG Devikins is gearing up for its third season, which is set to launch at the end of July. The new season will introduce a number of new features and changes, including the Momentum mechanic, a revamp of the speed system, and a new reward scheme. Momentum The Momentum mechanic is a new resource that players will accumulate when they are not playing Real-Time PvP. Momentum can then be spent to earn more points in Real-Time PvP matches. This will help to level the playing field and make it more rewarding for players who are not able to play as often. Speed Revamp The speed system in Devikins is also being revamped in Season 3.
