The new Albion East server will open to everyone on March 20. And you can get up to five days early access if you purchase an Albion East Founder Pack. The new server will offer a fully untouched version of the world, and those who arrive first will have a head start on gathering, crafting, and developing their characters.



The gameworld will be somewhat smaller than Albion West at first, in order to maintain a healthy competition for territory and resources. But as player numbers grow and characters develop, the world will expand accordingly. See ... Read more

Fixes

Older client versions remain compatible.
Hotfix 4.31 was a server-side hotfix that only affected Beta players: [21. February 2023] Beyond the Veil Hotfix 4.31 (Beta server)

Beyond the Veil Patch 5 - Ver. 22.050.1 - March 6, 2023

New Twitch Drops

This patch expands our available Twitch Drop rewards, with 19 new wardrobe skins and 2 new mount skins. These can now appear in all Community Chests and be purchased at the Vanity Merchant.

Crystal League and Crystal Arena

Crystal League match rules are changing next season. Runestones now score less frequently, but successfully scored Runestones reset each round. This stops teams from simply getting a Runestone advantage, playing defensively, and winning over time. To make up for longer scoring rounds, the point value per rotation is increased so match duration remains roughly the same.
5v5 Crystal League & Crystal Arena

• At the end of each round, all scoring Runestones reset; the team that holds most Runestones at the end of each round loses their Runestones

Guild Season Schedules: Albion West Season 19 / Albion East Season 1

Normally, Guild Seasons on Albion West (Washington, DC server) and Albion East (Singapore server) will start and end on the same date. However, as the Albion East server launch takes place after the regular season start date, the first Albion East season will begin several weeks later and be slightly shorter. Both seasons will end on the same date.


Season Schedule: Albion West Season 19 - Starts 11 March at 11:00 UTC

Beyond the Veil Patch 3 - Ver. 21.030.1 - January 9, 2023

Roads of Avalon Changes
The Roads of Avalon have received a significant overhaul and re-balance based on feedback received after the Beyond the Veil update. While the original intention was to refocus the Roads of Avalon to be solely targeted at groups, we no longer feel this is representative of the diversity of different audiences the Roads of Avalon have catered to in the past. This patch aims to increase activity, content, and rewards for a wider audience in the Roads - without taking content away from existing audiences to accomplish that.
Camp Changes

• Roaming Avalonian Mobs and weaker Avalonian Camps have been adjusted in difficulty and reward to work well for 1-3 players. These camps are now marked with a green chest icon on the map, as they were in previous iterations of the Roads.

Beyond the Veil Patch 2 Hotfix 1

Fixes

• Resolved an issue that prevented Group Random Dungeon Maps from being used in the Outlands or on the Royal Continent
  
• Resolved an issue with home binding removal that would improperly remove the home binding after entering a Hellgate, Corrupted Dungeon, Lethal Mists, or the Roads of Avalon rather than just the Outlands
  
  • The home binding is still removed when traveling to the Outlands from the Mists or the Roads
    
  • There is a known issue that causes the home binding removal warning message to display when entering the Roads of Avalon; this is a display issue only and the home binding will not be removed until using a Roads portal that leads to the Outlands
    

Albion’s next Guild Season begins Saturday, December 17, with a quicker pace and changes to the Crystal Arena and Conqueror’s Challenge, plus valuable rewards like the powerful Goliath Horseeater for ranking guilds. Click here for the full season schedule, or read on for more details...
