-
AXS has gained over 20% over the last 24 hours or so.

The move came after the game’s developer announced new changes on governance.
-
The surge pushed AXS to a new two-month high.

Axie Infinity (AXS) – The outlook
The long-term outlook for Axie Infinity (AXS) has often been quite positive. The volatility of the last few weeks is only a bump in what is expected to be a great year for AXS. The key now will be to watch how the coin will keep up the momentum.
Hitting a 2-month high is a big thing, especially when you consider just how far AXS had fallen. But AXS is not the only blockchain gaming token rising. In fact, after news broke that FTX and PUGB were getting into crypto gaming, almost all Play-to-Earn tokens saw major gains.
But AXS remains the stand-out performer with a 44% gain for the week. We expect this bullish surge to maintain at least in a week or so before it retreats.
Is Axie Infinity (AXS) still a good buy?
There were a lot of fears that perhaps AXS may have lost its momentum. After dominating GameFi in 2021, the NFT inspired game has continued to face increased competition from other newer games.
But despite this, we expect Axie to continue playing a key role in the GameFi sector. As a long-term asset, it is going to offer steady and decent gains for investors. The biggest downside risk is a decrease in active monthly players due to other entrants in GameFi.
