Considering <a href="https://funjible.games/news/illuvium-overworld-pivots-to-an-mmo-lite">Illuvium Overworld also looks to pivot into an MMO Lite</a>, the addition of these NPCs fits with the game's new goal. The developers even brought on <a href="https://funjible.games/news/illuvium-overworld-pivots-to-an-mmo-lite">new game directors during restructuring efforts</a>, signaling a year filled with innovation for Illuvium.While Web3 games are eager to continue building innovative products, the Web2 gaming industry is still going through tough times. There are studios still looking to reduce their workforce, and some of this contingency is also spread over the GameFi space. Illuvium may have brought new directors, but the developer also had to part ways with many contributors.<figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/illuvium_beyond_wave_4_7b2cabfa30.jpg" alt="Illuvium Beyond Wave 4" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_illuvium_beyond_wave_4_7b2cabfa30.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_illuvium_beyond_wave_4_7b2cabfa30.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_illuvium_beyond_wave_4_7b2cabfa30.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure>&nbsp;For the last two years, the focus has been on building quality products rather than focusing on play-to-earn elements in Web3, and it's getting closer to that time to whether these efforts will help create healthy playerbases.&nbsp;
