Major Update on ArcheAge War

The popular MMORPG, ArcheAge War, is set to take players on a thrilling journey with its large-scale update released on October 22, 2025. This update introduces an exciting new dungeon, the Ancient Forest, inviting players to engage in strategic battles against formidable boss monsters in a captivating new realm.

Welcome to the Ancient Forest

The Ancient Forest marks the first integrated universe dungeon accessible to players from both global and Korean servers. With a surreal blue light illuminating its beautifully designed surroundings, this mystical area offers a complex landscape where beauty collides with lurking dangers. Players will find themselves faced with new challenges that test both their skills and strategies as they step into this mesmerizing yet perilous realm.

Seizing the Spirit Guardians

Within certain zones of the Ancient Forest, players can find Spirit Guardian Towers that can be conquered to activate beneficial effects. By taking control of these towers, players can protect their allies while simultaneously dealing damage to opposing forces. This unique feature encourages cooperative gameplay, tactical use of the environment, and new dimensions of strategy in combat.

Facing the Nightmare Atrados

At the heart of the Ancient Forest awaits the dreaded boss monster, Atrados, known colloquially as the Blue Nightmare. When Atrados is summoned, dozens of interactive elements appear across the forest’s expanse. Only two of these objects provide access to Atrados's lair, setting the stage for intense tactical interactions. Players will need to work together, leveraging both the assisting objects that spawn during the fight and their tactical prowess to emerge victorious.

Additional Updates to Enhance Gameplay

Along with the new dungeon, players can also expect improvements across various game systems. New skills for each character class will be introduced, alongside balance adjustments for existing abilities. The update will also introduce a new chaotic area to the Halihara Continent, revising effects and loot associated with existing regions. Furthermore, enhancements to boss monsters' loot, health, and attack power will help balance gameplay.

Other quality-of-life improvements include optimized dungeon timings for guilds, enhancements to the matching system in Arcane's Treasure Island, expansions for maximum guild levels, upgrades to the trade system, and improved auto-disassembly functionality.
