Recommended Posts

Learn more about the open beta for New World Aeternum, including the in-game rewards you can unlock by participating.

It's official - the open beta for New World: Aeternum is coming to all platforms (PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S) on September 13, 2024 (9 AM PT). This announcement has generated a lot of buzz for both new and returning players alike as they consider embarking this adventure throughout Aeternum in a whole new way.

Players can enjoy this open beta up until September 16 (9 AM PT), where they'll be able to get a look and feel of the revamped experience and updated main story quest. One important note is that there will be a level cap of level 30 within this open beta, limiting players from getting a closer look at some of the new end-game content that's coming to the game (such as the new PvP zone in Cutlass Keys, and the new 10-man raid).

Regardless, this is a great chance to learn more about New World: Aeternum, experience first-hand how it feels on console, and get an inside-look of all the updates that have been made.

By participating in this open beta, players will be given the opportunity to unlock limited-edition skins that will be available for their characters for the official launch of the game (on October 15, 2024). By reaching level 25 within the open beta, players will be able to unlock all potential rewards, which include the "Aeternian Trailblazer" title, and a full set of a new skin known as the "Aeternian Adventurer" set.

This open beta will be available for all players in North America, South America, Europe, and APAC.

      Seasonal worlds. New OPR map. New artifacts. Seasonal events. Pick-up wars. Battle Royale. And so much more - the future of New World: Aeternum is looking bright.
      The New World: Aeternum developers have officially broke their silence since the launch of the game with some very exciting news, which includes a living roadmap!
      This roadmap is categorized in three different sections:
      Next Season (short-term): What is coming in the next seasonal update. In-Development (mid-term): What is in active development and will be coming in upcoming systems (within 2-3 seasons). In-Exploration: Ideas from the developers that are being part of discussions. These are features that have been heard from characters, and not yet decided on whether or not they will be implemented to the game. The full living roadmap (as it stands today) can be viewed below.

      The major changes that players will begin experiencing in season 7 are captured below with additional details:
      Seasonal World 1: PvP Focus: New World: Aeternum will be introducing dynamic, limited-time servers designed to deliver unique gameplay experiences. The first season world (coming in Season 7) will be "PvP Focus", where every player playing will be flagged for PvP at all times. By defeating other players, you will be able to obtain special loot, including unique items and valuables. New Outpost rush (OPR) Map Preview: A new OPR map is finally coming! In Season 7, players will be able to get a closer look and experience a preview of this new map during a special weekend event - keep your eyes open for additional details coming soon. Mutated Expedition Updates: All mutations will receive a buff in overall loot, enticing players to experience mutated expeditions for more sought-after loot and valuables. Daily Solo Trials: Three new soul trials will be added to the game, including "A Mother's Dream", featuring Empress Zhou, "Tempest's Mind", starring Isabella, and "Saichi Soto", offering all-new encounters that push players to their limits. New Artifacts and Perks: Season 7 introduces eight new artifacts to enhance gameplay and strategy (7 weapons, 1 earring). There is a good chance that at least one of these artifacts will impact the meta. To learn more about New World: Aeternum, and experience the lands of Aeternum, click here.

      The long-awaited black dye and hippos are introduced into New World: Aeternum. Learn more about what they look like, and how you can get them!
      New World: Aeternum surprised the community today with some brand-new, long-awaited items being added into its in-game store. The first (and probably most requested) addition to the store is Black Dye. Players will now be able to dye their weapons, armors, mount skins, and more with this all-new black dye, which is already being seen throughout Aeternum.
      The new "Wraith Black" dye pack can be purchased in the in-game store for 3,000 marks of fortune.

      Additionally, hippos are finally in New World: Aeternum! With the official launch of New World, players shared memes and posts around why there were not hippos within the game. One user even published daily posts in their forum, calling out "Day X of no hippos in New World", with the posts reaching several hundred days long.
      The developers must have been listening, as they added a new bear mount skin to the game, labeled as "Hippo Burley", allowing players to transform their bear mounts into hippos (pictured below). 
      The new "Hippo Burley" bear mount skin can be purchased for 20,000 marks of fortune in the in-game store.
