Greetings, Adventurers!
New World Update 4.0.2 downtime will begin at 11:00PM PT (7:00AM UTC) on January 9 and last approximately 1 hour. Save Aeternum in the Legacy of Crassus event, and get inspired by our community housing contest winners. There’s also another wave of Ronin’s Shadow skins coming to the in-game store. Check out the full release notes, including a variety of combat changes, below.
The shadow of Roman tyranny creeps ever closer to consuming Aeternum on January 10 through 23. Banish General Crassus's monstrous captains for new event-specific, daily rewards . Players brave enough to tear down the banners of the Republic in Brightwood, Weavers Fen, Mourningdale, Ebonscale Reach, and Edengrove can earn Cyclops Statuette Housing Items, up-leveled Named Gear, and more.
In a ravaged and uncertain place like Aeternum, it is rare to find one fully committed to honor and loyalty. If you walk the warrior’s path, visit the Store for new Ronin’s Shadow items. Which skins and emotes will you add to your collection?
Thanks to everyone that participated in our Holiday Housing Contest. First place will receive 20,000 Marks of Fortune, second place will get 10,000 Marks of Fortune, and third place will net 5,000 Marks of Fortune. Look forward to future contests on the New World Discord .
