About Immutable zkEVM
Immutable zkEVM's mainnet opened in early access for select game studios in early 2024 before broader availability. It is a zero-knowledge rollup that settles to Ethereum and uses Polygon CDK technology.
The chain targets blockchain games with low transaction fees and block times around 2 seconds. IMX is the native gas token, and developers use standard Solidity contracts plus Immutable's gaming-oriented SDKs and APIs for minting, orders, and wallets.
Common Use Cases on Immutable zkEVM
- Web3 game asset minting
- In-game NFT economies
- Gaming marketplaces and orderbooks
- Low-fee microtransactions
- Studio token launches

Frequently Asked Questions: Immutable zkEVM
What's Immutable zkEVM's chain ID?
Immutable zkEVM mainnet is chain ID 13371.
What token pays for gas?
IMX is the native gas token on Immutable zkEVM.
What is Immutable zkEVM built for?
It is optimized for Web3 gaming, with low fees and gaming-focused SDKs and APIs for minting and trading assets.
Is WebSocket supported?
Not right now. Our health checks open a real subscription on every Immutable zkEVM upstream, and none currently accepts one, so Immutable zkEVM is served over HTTP only. The WebSocket line in the live status above changes on its own when that measurement does.
