The most chaotic times are also the most beautiful times
Set in the 13th century Europe, Night Crows unfolds in an era filled with magic and alchemy, where substances can transform, and various intelligent races coexist with humans. With the invention of gliders, even the sky becomes a domain for humanity.
However, this world is amidst multiple conflicts of religious beliefs and ideologies, including territorial expansion, wealth disparity, and the rise of heretics. In the midst of impending chaos, a guild known as the Night Crows emerges, seemingly bringing a glimmer of hope to this tumultuous land.
Night Crows was initially formed by the Craftsmen's Alliance, specializing in armor crafting. Under the leadership of the first guild master, who actively embraced various technologies and initiatives, it evolved into a diverse guild with a wide range of skills. The true catalyst for the organization's growth occurred under the leadership of the third guild master, who actively expanded territories, strengthened the guild's influence, and successfully established multiple mercenary organizations. Additionally, offices and intelligence agencies were set up in various countries, making Night Crows the most influential guild in the Kingdom.
Powered by Unreal Engine 5
Developed using the latest Unreal Engine 5, Night Crows creates realistic and exquisite game visuals. This MMORPG, supporting both mobile and PC platforms, has garnered admiration for its realistic lighting effects and high-quality graphics, earning praise as a groundbreaking masterpiece across generations.
At the core of Unreal Engine 5 is the "Lumen" system, a technology that renders realistic changes in lighting. The game's detailed visuals and textures showcase an artistic expression distinct from previous games, allowing players to immerse themselves more deeply in the world of Night Crows. To bring game characters to life, the development team utilized 4K resolution assets, ensuring the full display of image details. Every detail, from the metallic texture of armor to the realistic reflection of light on hair, is vividly portrayed.
Moreover, the engine's Level of Detail (LOD) technology adjusts object algorithms based on distance, optimizing to a degree imperceptible to the human eye. This significantly speeds up the processing of large modeling data. Even in large-scale, cross-server battles involving thousands of players simultaneously, Night Crows ensures uninterrupted gameplay, demonstrating the engine's remarkable efficiency in handling massive amounts of modeling data.
Integrating Blockchain technology for enhanced gaming experiences
The official implementation of "M.U.T.E. (Multi Utility Token Economy)" technology in this game allows key in-game resources to be converted into virtual tokens. Simultaneously, leveraging the blockchain technology of "C.A.N.E. (Character Abstracted NFT Economy)" enables game characters and items to be returned to players in a forged manner, not only bringing more playability to Night Crows but also offering a more stable value preservation space for virtual items. Also, the official commemorative NFT edition, specially introduced for pre-registration, is now available for public sale on the "DAO & NFT platform (NILE, NFT Is Life Evolution)" based on Wemix 3.0. These NFTs can be exchanged for the core in-game token "CROW" starting from April 1.
