<p>Illuvium recently announced a major update to its Trait Purity Indicator (TPI) system. This metric is used to assess the quality of units in Illuvium. The changes aim to align the system directly with <a href="https://funjible.games/games/Illuvium-arena">Illuvium Arena</a>, the ecosystem's flagship title.</p><p>The updated TPI system simplifies the 16-value calculation system down to a six-trait system. The previous system caused confusion amongst players since there was a chance that units with perfect Arena stats would show less than a 100 percent TPI score or that TPI would show higher than expected to other stats. With the new system in place, a unit with maxed-out Arena traits will now correctly display a 100% TPI score.</p><div class="raw-html-embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">📊 TPI System Update<br>We’re simplifying how the Trait Purity Indicator works—making it more transparent, fairer, and fully aligned with Arena.<br><br>🔧 What’s new:<br>– TPI now uses only the 6 core Arena traits<br>– Perfect Arena stats = 100% TPI<br><br>It’s now easier to understand at a glance,… <a href="https://t.co/8172tuCRk1">https://t.co/8172tuCRk1</a></p>— Illuvium (@illuviumio) <a href="https://twitter.com/illuviumio/status/1912170796547756072?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 15, 2025</a></blockquote> <script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> </div><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The simplification update also standardizes TPI across all Illuvium games. The Arena's six-trait baseline could possess some limits regarding flexibility, but the advantages of having a single standard outweigh the potential negatives.</p><p>Illuvium has been focused on simplifying its vast ecosystem in 2025, and there have been other updates in this regard, too. For example, Illuvium <a href="https://funjible.games/news/illuvium-unifies-fuel-system-for-a-smoother-economy">unified its fuel system for a smoother economy</a> while <a href="https://funjible.games/games/Illuvium-Overworld">Illuvium Overworld</a> is going through a <a href="https://funjible.games/news/illuvium-overworld-restructuring-brings-new-game-directors">restructuring with new game directors</a>. Earlier in 2025, Illuvium decided to <a href="https://www.funjible.games/news/illuvium-overworld-pivots-to-an-mmo-lite">pivot Overworld into an MMO Lite</a>.</p><p>While the Illuvium ecosystem made strides to solve the <a href="https://funjible.games/news/the-interoperability-dilemma-is-crypto-gaming-too-ambitious">interoperability dilemma</a> in Web3 gaming, the ecosystem turned out to be too confusing for new players. Illuvium looks to continue rolling out updates that will aim to stick the ecosystem tighter together.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/illuvium_ecosystem_TPI_1_7d7cda0905.jpg" alt="Illuvium TPI Update" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_illuvium_ecosystem_TPI_1_7d7cda0905.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_illuvium_ecosystem_TPI_1_7d7cda0905.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_illuvium_ecosystem_TPI_1_7d7cda0905.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In addition to existing players, Illuvium also wants to expand its reach. <a href="https://funjible.games/news/illuvium-rewards-return-with-ilv-leaderboards-and-fuel-drops">Illuvium Rewards returned with $ILV leaderboards</a>, which is a decent step toward attracting more attention.</p><h2><strong>An Unexpected Break</strong></h2><p>Crypto gaming, in general, had a relatively successful 2024, but this momentum wasn't carried over into the new year. The ecosystem fell short of the growth expectations, which caused new updates to go unnoticed. While this could seem discouraging from an outsider's standpoint, Web3 games continue to release new updates, and the <a href="https://funjible.games/games/Illuvium-arena/news">latest Illuvium news</a> shows no signs of slowing down.</p><p>When the attention shifts toward GameFi, many games will be ready to capitalize on players' interest with excellent gameplay experiences and solid narratives.</p><div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/XdP0IIo8cNw?si=sdGTCr0sVAUlTNHl" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>
