Delysium is an AI-powered open-world platform that builds diverse, free-to-own universes and AI-driven MetaBeings for player-created experiences. The company has released a Playable Whitepaper game that garnered over 450,000 views in two weeks, showing early traction. Its technology stack includes AI-to-earn, AI conversation models, AI intent recognition, and AI motion generation powered by Deterrence and rct AI to create cognitively aware virtual beings. Delysium has delivered a visually focused Battle Royale title and is focused on scaling content production across its Multiverse. The team plans to use funding to develop content, enable unique AI-powered experiences, and build the Delysium Multiverse—an open-source, decentralized publishing structure for web3 games. The company emphasizes involving Multiverse Operators to set on-chain incentives and co-produce abundant game content. Delysium is described as the world's first playable AAA MMO web3 game, combining open-world MMORPG design with cyberpunk aesthetics and user-generated content. Its gameplay includes battle, exploration, construction, cultivation, social systems and AI-driven "MetaBeing" characters. Players can earn loot boxes (tokens, NFTs, game resources) through various modes and can equip, combine, upgrade, craft and trade in-game assets such as MetaBeings, cyberbodies, weapons, vehicles and environmental objects. The platform also enables creation of narrative assets, including dialogue models, behavioral models, decision-making models, storylines and missions. The team plans to launch Alpha and Beta versions with a PvP tournament in the middle of the year and will use recent funding to support game production and the ecosystem. Delysium is led by rct AI, an entity incubated by Y Combinator, with Yuheng Chan as CEO.
