Codex Season 1: Songs of the Soil is LIVE! The Codex is back, and it’s been rebuilt from the ground up. Season 0 was just the beginning. This time we went deeper, with three lore paths that reach into Lunacia’s oldest memories. New rewards, new perks, and a story that actually matters.
The lore you uncover here connects directly to a threat you’ll soon face in Atia’s Legacy.
Here’s everything you need to know:
How the Codex Works
Think of the Codex like a battle pass on App.axie.
Get Codex → Unlock and complete quests → Earn points → Secure rewards.
There are free and premier paths. Free path users unlock lore and earn Bounty Points that can lead to more weekly Bounty Board rewards. Premier path users get access to exclusive rewards, perks, and Spirit Clay on top of that.
The Three Paths
This season tells the story of Spirit Clay: how it was discovered, used to defend Lunacia, and what happened when it fell into the wrong hands.
Path I: Kei and the First Golem explores the origins of Spirit Clay.
Path II: The Golems of War tells of the alliance that defended Lunacia.
Path III: The Black Kiln reveals what happens when creation is twisted by ambition.
Three paths. Three perspectives. Each path can be completed in any order, and together they tell one connected story.
What Can You Earn?
Free path users can unlock lore content and earn Bounty Points through progression.
Premier path users unlock exclusive rewards on each path, including:
bAXS throughout your progression
Exclusive accessories
Spirit Clay used for the Black Kiln spins
Seasonal backgrounds and cosmetic items
Perks that enhance your Daily Bounties experience
Buy and complete all three premier paths, and you’ll earn the S1 Codex Orb.
Codex Perks
Premier path users unlock perks that completely change how you play the Bounty Board. Think of them as new tools to shape your own strategy. How you use them is up to you.
Perk 1: First 2 rerolls on each quest slot are free, and you earn bonus Bounty Points on Daily Milestones.
Perk 2: Get an extra quest slot and pick which game pools it draws from. This slot trades some BP for 50% more Codex Points.
Perk 3: Rerolls are more likely to land Master Quests across all your quest slots.
How to Access the Codex
Step 1: Go to the Codex on App.axie
Step 2: Log in with your account
Step 3: Set your Path Order. Choose which of the three lore paths to tackle first
Step 4: Choose to play Free or activate Premier Paths
Step 5: Complete quests and level up to unlock lore segments and rewards
Step 6: Claim rewards every time you reach a new level
Each path has 20 levels with three lore segments that unlock as you progress. Complete all three paths and piece together the full story of Spirit Clay.
S0 Codex Orb Utility
If you earned the Codex Orb during Season 0, it’s about to pay off. Consume your Orb to instantly complete any purchased Mini Path, jumping straight to the perks and rewards. A serious headstart if you’re trying to complete all three paths fast. These Orbs are limited and only one can be used per account. If you’ve been holding onto yours, this is the moment.
Spirit Clay & The Black Kiln
Spirit Clay is the new seasonal currency in Season 1. Earn it through Codex progression, then spend 4 Spirit Clay per spin at the Black Kiln. Every spin is a shot at bAXS and three exclusive, limited-edition accessories ranging from Rare to Mystic. These accessories can only be earned through the Black Kiln this season, and once it closes, no more will exist.
Fortune Slips also just got more useful. You can now convert them into Spirit Clay at 100 Fortune Slips per 1 Spirit Clay. Completing Mini Paths unlocks even more Spirit Clay to purchase (up to 40 per completed path), which means more spins.
Note: Spirit Clay does not carry over between seasons. Use it before the Black Kiln closes!
Purchasing & Gifting the Codex
For the first time ever, the Codex is purchasable with bAXS. It’s 4 bAXS per Mini Path, or 12 bAXS for all three.
Want to bring a friend along? You can gift the full Codex to someone who hasn’t started yet. It’s all three paths as a bundle, and it’s a great way to get more Lunacians into the story.
Earn MOAR rewards with Forged In Clay!
Want to earn extra bAXS and Spirit Clay? This season’s campaigns offer a combined prize pool of 7,000 bAXS that you can compete for as you progress through the Codex. Here’s everything happening:
Mini Path Milestones Challenge - Tile Trials
Compete for up to 5,000 bAXS in prizes through Tile Trials, an experimental, push-your-luck mini-game! Pick a tile each row, avoid the hidden trap, and extract your rewards before you bust. The more Lunacians purchase Mini Paths, the bigger the prize pool grows for everyone.
Note: The Tile Trials is built on the Axie Dojo Platform, an early-stage experimental platform developed by Jaatster from the Sky Mavis Growth team. Dojo is designed to enable the rapid development and launch of tools and experiences for the Axie community through agentic engineering, while maintaining security as a core priority.
How it works:
Weeks 1–4 (Practice Mode): Daily free energy is available during the practice weeks to play Tile Trials. Prize pool accumulates as more Lunacians purchase Codex Mini Paths.
Week 5 (Competition Season): Each purchased Codex Mini Path unlocks 10 daily energy. Compete in the weekly leaderboard with up to 5,000 bAXS prize pool.
Race to S1 Codex Orb
Be among the first 50 Lunacians to complete all three lore paths and win up to 300 bAXS! Use your Codex perks and roll high-point quests to earn the S1 Codex Orb the fastest.

Codex Season 1 FAQ
Q: How much does the Codex cost?
A: Each Mini Path costs 4 bAXS. All three paths together cost 12 bAXS.
Q: Can I buy the Codex anytime during the season?
A: Yes. You can purchase it anytime during the season to unlock rewards for the levels you’ve already reached.
Q: Can I rearrange my path order?
A: You can rearrange the order of your remaining paths one time before completing your first path (the first 20 levels).
Q: What is Spirit Clay?
A: Spirit Clay is the new seasonal currency, replacing Lucky Coins. Earn it through Codex progression and use it for Black Kiln spins.
Q: Can I save Spirit Clay for next season?
A: No. Spirit Clay expires at the end of every season. The Black Kiln will remain open for 3 days after the season ends, so make sure to use your Spirit Clay before it closes.
Q: What happens to accessories in the Black Kiln if they don’t sell out?
A: Accessories from each Codex season are exclusive. Even if they don’t sell out, they will be unavailable after the season ends.
Q: How do Black Kiln drop rates change if tiers sell out?
A: Rates are recalculated as supply runs out. If lower tiers sell out, your chances of pulling rarer items increase. But Mystics may also run out first since they have a lower supply.
Q: I have more than one S0 Codex Orb. What should I do with the extras?
A: You can only use 1 Orb per account. If you’re holding extras, you can list them on the marketplace. Not everyone earned one during Season 0, so there may be players looking to get their hands on one.
Q: Can I gift the Codex to another player?
A: Yes! You can gift the full Codex (all paths required) to another user, as long as they are currently a free user and haven’t activated any Premier Path yet.
