Ahoy Pathfinders!

As we draw closer to a new patch and a new season, we know the excitement and anticipation is brewing for what's to come in only a couple weeks time. With each season, the opportunity to start fresh and take on new challenges on the open seas is something we celebrate. In the meantime, we have a few fun things planned to give you a small look at what's in store. See if you can guess what new adversaries are coming to Atlas!


This fearsome creature may not be grumpy, but it definitely doesn't like pathfinders messing around where they're not supposed to be. One second, you and your crew may be scuttling along the shore, but the moment you may find yourself in a pinch, it's curtains for you and your adventure.

Careful where you swim since you never know what's under the waves and waiting to roll up on you in a flash. While a new set of shoes might sound nice, they won't help you out run this scaly sta...

As mentioned previously, the winds of change are blowing! Soon, Atlas will enter a new era of exploration and adventure! New technologies and new inventions will bring new avenues for exciting and thrilling campaigns. We can’t wait to show you what we have in store for the next season! We’ll be providing more and more information as we get closer to the update.


As a teaser, we have a glimpse of some strange new phenomenon coming to Atlas next patch. What could it be? You’ll have to find out for yourself next season!

As we usher in a new age for Atlas, we will say goodbye to the previous season with fond memories. We hope you enjoyed it and look forward to what’s to come! The final day of the season will be May 18th when we will be wiping all servers for a fresh start. We hope you’ll continue the journey with us as we prepare to exit early access later this year. Thanks for your support, t...

Ahoy Pathfinders!

In this patch, we are preparing for a new era in Atlas. The winds of progress are coming to the world, bringing new structures and adventures for all pathfinders, new and old. Large plumes of smoke can be seen on the horizon, signaling the “revolution” to come.

First off, we have the much anticipated tame house being introduced in this patch. Breeders rejoice, these tame houses will make a great shelter for all your fauna friends, while significantly speeding up the breeding process.

In preparation for the new season and Wonder coming soon, the fires of the industrial forge have been stoked to produce new resources and structures for Atlas. With these metallurgical advances, the landscape of Atlas will never be the same.

Discover the origins of these new technological feats in two new regions of the Atlas map. Along with the new discoveries, these areas hold new mysteries and challenges that will test ...

Ahoy Pathfinders!

Last week, we unveiled our roadmap for the coming year in a short video briefly detailing our goals and what's in store for Atlas. Today, we are sailing forward with new content and some much needed maintenance as we look to prepare for our exit of early access later this year. Included in this patch is a new ship, UI improvements, a map adjustment, new content, and of course, major fixes to improve the gameplay experience.

Need to transport your menagerie to a new location? Look no further than our latest vessel to join the fleet, the Pegasus. The Pegasus allows for Pathfinders to move their tames from island to island with ease. Carrying up to 30 tames, this ship can be constructed at the advanced shipyard and is a valuable addition to any crew.

In response to player feedback, we've made a few UI adjustments to clarify the journey out on the open sea. We've added indicators on modular ships to help players identify ...

As we sail deeper into 2022, we are continuing our initiative of higher transparency with our amazing community. Today, as part of these efforts, we are providing a short video detailing our roadmap for the coming year. In the video, we lay out our plans for new content, new player experiences, and pending move out of early access!

First, let’s take a quick look back and some of the progress made in 2021 and how these changes impacted the game

Ship Building

We introduced the modular ship system and several role-specific ships for players to customize their fleet



PvP

We’ve added the Wonders system to create new endgame content and fun interactions for the player base



Travel

Tradewinds and portals were brought in to make the difficult voyages on the sea a little easier

Ahoy Pathfinders,


As we continue to sail forward into 2022, we are doubling down our efforts to not only provide new, exciting experiences for the Atlas community but also, reevaluating and refining the current game to improve the gameplay experience.

In this patch, we’re adding new regions, each with their own secrets, for players to explore and discover. We’re also getting festive with a few new cosmetics to help you and your crew celebrate the upcoming. Celebrate the year of the tiger or cuddle up with a bear-y good friend as you travel the world of Atlas.

Finally, we’ve invested a lot of time into addressing the gameplay issues voiced by you, the community. This update is the continuation of that initiative, bringing tons of much needed bug fixes to shore. In addition, we are unveiling our new public issue tracker where pathfinders can track the progress of bugs that have been brought to our attention via Discord or other f...

Ahoy Pathfinders!


To start 2022 right, as promised, we're doing a little house cleaning. We're addressing many of the issues that you, the community, have been asking for in our latest patch. We have a host of bug fixes and optimizations listed below that we hope will fix the lingering problems from previous iterations, so we can start fresh moving into the new year.

Along with these changes, we're fully implementing our first wonder, the Great Temple. This structure is the pinnacle of glory for all pathfinders. Companies will have to plot, scheme, and pool all of their resources to be the first, and only, masters of this great Wonder. Not only will they go down in history as the first Pirate legends to complete this stunning achievement but they will also gain “wondrous” benefits that will persist into the next season.

Finally, we also have a new transport ship, the Tramp Freighter. This cost-effective hauler will help ease t...

New land masses be appearin' on the horizon! The harsh climate and lack of water sources will make this area challenging to live on, but shapes of a mysterious building can be made out through thick fog covering part of the island. Monumental achievements await pathfinders seeking to call this Wonderous island home. With these changes comes a new map, a wipe and a new season for ATLAS!
We’re taking the first step into building upon the vast world and wide seas of ATLAS. With this update, we are merging the NA and EU PVP servers into one large global server that we will continue to expand on as we work with the community to shape the ATLAS world. A big thank you to our passionate Pathfinders who helped steer our sails towards this grand new direction. We look forward to continuing to work with the community to enrich the world with more lands to explore and seas to discover! Servers will be going down to deploy the update tomorrow night, 12...

Ahoy Pathfinders!

In the continuing effort to communicate and listen to our community, we'll be posting questions intermittently to get the pulse of the community and integrate their feedback into our future development of Atlas. This week's question is below:

Do you want EU PVP and NA PVP realms to be combined into Global PVP? Vote by using the reactions on this post (haha) for yes, (confused ) for no. This new Global PVP will be pc/xbox crossplay.

This poll will run until December 14th. Thank you for your responses and support!

Final Note

Again, we would like to emphasize that ATLAS is still in Early Access, meaning many things can and will likely continue to drastically change - even in the middle of development. Anything discussed is only up to date as of the moment it is posted. Features and changes that ultimately make it to the next patch, as well as timing, may be different from what was prev...

*Nathan, I'm sorry...*

If only I hadn't been so foolish, maybe things would have been different. Like a moth to a flame, I followed the destinations laid out in the journal, enamored by the thought of new discovery. From the night I found my brother lying dead on the beach and the narrow escape from the figures in black cloaks, I had sided with destiny to determine my fate and thrown precaution to the wind. And now, in a raging tempest in uncharted waters, hunted by those I eluded before, the journey is now over as our small ship sails directly into a mythical disc described in the journal. With nearly the entire ship lost behind this circular veil, I accepted my fate and closed my eyes as the ominous disc swept over me.

A breath... and then another. "Does one still draw breath in the afterlife?" I pondered.

Wherever I was, I could no longer feel the rain pouring down on me an...

The trip to Nozetal had been a bittersweet one. While the salty ocean winds had breathed life into these old sea bones, the lingering memories of my time in La Noferia left me on edge. I had narrowly evaded certain death and although we were now miles away, the danger remained as present as the tattered journal close to my chest.

Landfall could not come soon enough, the crew were on their final leg before their for home voyage and a detour for a strange passenger with mysterious intentions did not help ease their growing restlessness. I had kept to myself in my quarters and on landing, I quickly disembarked, narrowly avoiding an escalating confrontation about a missing pinnace that had mysteriously disappeared overnight.

While a large town with folk of all manners, I could not help but feel the eyes of the townsfolk had pegged me as someone different. My apparel was nothing remarkable but it seems my inquiries about my pending guide had made me a pe...
