We've been taking inspiration from a lot of modern AAA combat systems like Final Fantasy and Elden Ring. It is extremely difficult to do in an MMO with proper client prediction / server auth but we're close.

This.
Valve: 350 employees Epic Games: 4,000 employees Valve: $17B annual revenue
Epic Games: $5-6B Valve charges devs 30% of their revenue for simply listing their game. Epic Games charges devs 0% revenue share on the first $1,000,000 Valve is one of the greediest companies in gaming. You cannot be pro valve and be pro developer at the same time.
Community note
The post states Valve has $17B annual revenue. This figure refers to total gross sales on Steam (~$16B in 2025), not Valve's revenue (~$4B from its share). Epic's $5-6B is Epic's revenue. The companies' revenues are thus similar. pcgamer.com/gaming-industr… 80.lv/articles/valve… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_Cor…

Bingo
The AI gaming meta is going to be ridiculous. The most successful entertainment product in history is about to get x10 more immersive, and x10 cheaper to build. Small teams will eat.

At Avalon we are building "Real-time creating" - the ability to generate gameplay ready persistent worlds prompted from text. While others are building real-time video world models, Avalon is building real-time world generation inside a fully playable, persistent multiplayer engine. Internally running at 3840×2180 at 60 FPS. Built on Unreal Engine. Multiplayer by default. Persistent by default. Gameplay-ready by default. This is not a video latent replay. Not a simulation of interaction. It is a real 3D world with physics, logic, and authoritative multiplayer state. Avalon is trained on proprietary Avalon interaction data and powered by a hybrid system that combines language understanding, 3D model generation, procedural systems, and structured gameplay logic synthesis. Players can walk through a live world and generate environments, assets, mechanics, and entirely new gameplay modes using natural language. We accomplish this through a combination of 3D model generation, game logic generation based on our proprietary systems, and AI driven world creation. While other players are inside it. Changes persist instantly. State is synchronized in real time. Creation happens inside the world, not outside of it. Describe a biome. Spawn a civilization. Create a survival mode. Build a dungeon crawler. Launch a new game inside the world. Avalon interprets intent and integrates it directly into the live multiplayer environment. This is not a world model predicting video. This is a gameplay engine that understands language. If you can describe it, you can build it. And others can walk into it instantly.

Roblox exceeds 150 million average DAUs. 35% (~53M) are under 13. When this young crowd graduates from Roblox, what game do they turn to? Answer: @AVALON A next-generation MMO that uses generative AI to let players speak, create, and play the worlds of their imagination. Looking forward to talking with @SeanPinnock (CEO & Co-founder) on @dealflowpodcast.

Nearly 1/3 kids age 9-12 play Roblox on a regular basis in the west. However, kids are aging out of the platform and are looking for similar but more mature experiences. This is where Avalon comes in. Avalon is taking UGC to the next level - anyone will be able to create stellar worlds using natural language. You don't need to learn how to code or 3d model. Just prompt what you want and it will come to reality and you'll be playing in the world of your dreams with your friends. This is the future of gaming.

Happy 2026! Excited for this year. We've made some major breakthroughs in the last few months with @AVALON that I think are going to be huge for anyone who wants to make games. Imagine world building with natural language.

Avalon is really so much more than just an MMO. It's a UGC platform that leverages AI and UE5 tech to make it easy for anyone to make and monetize their own multiplayer / mmo games. Our vision is to be the evolution of Roblox.

If a customer service rep accidentally sending an entire guild $215M USD in game currency for a web 2 game to a guild and thus crashing an MMO isn't a great argument for building a proper web3 economy then IDK what is. youtube.com/watch?v=nZZKokMr…

I’m insanely grateful. The team constantly goes above and beyond, telling stories through every piece of set dressing, fixing bugs in the strangest places that end up optimizing our systems by lightyears, or spotting a missing asset and creating it without being asked. We’re building AVALON with our blood, sweat, and tears, and I couldn’t have asked for a more talented, dedicated group to build it with.

New Game Update! In our latest build, we included new skills, combat improvements, new character customization features and upgrades to our first boss - a Dragon. Only a small amount of players have been let in at a time to experience it, but we anticipate bringing a lot more in with the next update! Stay tuned, Avalonians!

The door opening your AVALON journey may lead to an unexpected end. Warm homes hide cold dungeons. Smiles sheathe blades. Keep on your toes, Avalonians, and Happy Halloween!

Imagine being able to interact with NPCs, create items, and build guilds in AVALON, before even entering the game. That’s what’s coming to Discord: an extension of AVALON where Discord NPCs will remember you in-game, and what you create there will exist in AVALON itself. Can’t wait for you all to experience it!
