Rise of the Angry Earth is coming in just about two weeks, and the New World team is answering some more community questions ahead of the expansion’s release.
The first question is all about how you can buy the expansion. While you can wishlist the expansion before it's out, there will be no pre-orders and It will simply go on sale on October 3rd. Players got their first taste of the upcoming new content on the PTR, with some distinct instability on the first day. Answering another question, they found the cause of that issue, patched in the PTR, improving stability, and continued work, such that they’re generally certain it won’t follow into the expansion’s live release. Of course, the devs reiterated that things like this is why a PTR build exists.
One thing from the PTR we can expect to carry over: Influence Races to encourage gathering and sparking PvP.
Gear also got an important mention, with the emphasis on improvements and overhauls that aim to make getting your hands on solid and adequate gear to be faster and less of a grindy process. This should, in turn, make it easier to test out different builds and to feel like you have a good shot at getting what you need in a reasonable amount of time so you can just have fun.
However, crafting Best in Slot gear is going to require a lot more work, and yes, grind. Especially with the introduction of Artifacts. With the work they've put into gear, we should perhaps expect more on this in a future video installment of Balance of Power.
With this expansion and beyond, Amazon Games has plans for PvP and expanded options in PvE, though we’ll have to wait a while for that. “We have major plans to improve the PVE experience. We also have major plans to improve the PVP experience. But that's stuff we don't want to talk about until we start talking about next year.”
One of the important questions has to do with those who don't buy the expansion. They will raise everyone up to 675 to make sure that all can still remain competitive, but not buying the expansion will leave many at some disadvantage. They are still trying to balance things enough to not make players feel excluded and to feel like a fair point.
On this expansion and other content, invasions don't have any changes to be announced, and there's nothing on the subject of a future additional race in New World, but they don't rule it out.

New World has been having a week thanks to the launch of its first paid expansion, Rise of the Angry Earth. However, as rising player counts have caused queues to return, Amazon has needed to spin up even more servers to combat the issue.
New content, costumes, and improved features are in the latest update for Tower of God: New World. Players can also participate in a special event inspired by a traditional Korean holiday.
The first major expansion for MMORPG New World, titled Rise of the Angry Earth, is out now on PC. As a result, the game has seen quite a surge in sales on Steam. Thanks to the expansion, New World has also become the second-best selling game on Steam’s global top-selling chart at the time of publishing, following the recently-released Counter-Strike 2. The expansion sits at number 8.
New World launched its first paid expansion, Rise of the Angry Earth, yesterday, and the excitement new content — especially mounts — has brought to Amazon's MMO has seen a return in queues and a rise in player count.
New World's first expansion arrived yesterday, and along with the addition of flails, the ability to turn into some kind of vengeful nature monster, a transformed zone and another expedition, it also solves one of my big launch bugbears: it's finally added mounts.
New World is back, at least for now. The once-fallen MMO is again climbing the Steam charts, as Amazon’s first expansion, New World: Rise of the Angry Earth, releases on Steam. With doubled concurrent player count numbers and both the base game and its DLC climbing up the Steam charts, even pushing ahead of Valve’s own Counter-Strike 2 in some regions, it’s a promising early jolt to life.
New World's first paid expansion, Rise of the Angry Earth, has officially launched today, bringing the next chapter of the Amazon MMO to players.

New World is poised to have a fantastic fall if everything the team is planning comes together. From the launch of its upcoming expansion next month, Rise of the Angry Earth, to completing its task of fully revamping the leveling process by years' end, New World is building towards its future.
New World is going wild, with the overgrowth and the beasts coming in the Rise of the Angry Earth expansion. Amazon has announced a new weeklong event to mark the expansion’s release, with special streams and Twitch Drops to get your hands on.
