Ask Messari Copilot "What are the most popular games on the Ronin chain in 2024?" In 2021, Ronin’s flagship game, Axie Infinity, propelled Web3 gaming into the global spotlight. But when the broader crypto market crashed in 2022, Axie’s highly inflationary token design was exposed, and users abandoned Axie Infinity, and to a large extent, Ronin itself. But recently, Ronin has made something of a comeback.  3 New games - Pixels, Apeiron and Wild Forest have each shown strong growth in the past several months - reminiscent of the early days of Axie Infinity.  So the question is - what has Ronin learned from the Axie experience? And what outside factors may contribute to the success - or plateau - of Ronin’s rebirth?
