GameStop Corporation partners with Illuvium, launching the world's first Interoperable Blockchain Game (IBG) and unveiling 20,000 limited-edition NFTs as part of their inaugural collection, titled 'Illuvitars D1SK.'

Illuvium announced its collaboration with GameStop on Monday, June 5. The blockchain game publisher said they will drop the non-fungible collection next week.

As per CoinTelegraph, the companies named the drop Illuvitars D1SK NFTs, and they are dynamic collections of artworks featuring specific avatars of an Illuvial, which are the deity-like creatures in the Illuvium blockchain-based game.

Each avatar has a distinct expression, so they express different characters. All of the Illuvitars have a power rating that was given based on their rarity.

Moreover, the GameStop x Illuvitar D1SK NFT will offer a unique GameStop-branded Illuvitar. Game developers said this possesses "108 potential combinations based on six different Illuvials, three expressions, three background stages, and two finishes." On the other hand, each D1SK holds random Illuvitars and accessories that can be exchanged or sold on the Illuvi decentralized exchange.

GameStop tapped Immutable X to run its NFT marketplace, which was introduced in early 2022. However, it appears that the business is not doing well because, by August of the same year, the daily fee revenue of the GameStop NFTs was said to have dropped to just $4,000. The decline was blamed on the situation within the cryptocurrency bear market.

It should be noted that the new GameStop x Illuvitar D1SK NFT collection is an exclusive offering of Illuvitar that come with customized GameStop-branded accessories, backgrounds, finishes and expressions. Fans must secure their token as soon as they are released because only 20,000 of the limited-edition pieces are available.

Finally, as mentioned on Illuvium's website, the GameStop x Illuvitar D1SK NFTs will be on sale for 72 hours only starting June 12.
