Fairy Tale Lord and Russian Ice: The Glacial Tarn in the New World

The staff at Amazon Games has revealed in detail how the new expedition in their fantasy MMORPG New World is created and what it consists of. In The Glacial Tarn, level 65 heroes will travel to the territory of the Great Schism to defeat the monsters of Ser Lot there and defeat the Phantom Knight himself for the promised reward of his equipment items. This activity will be available only with the Rise of the Angry Earth add-on, and how exactly it is organized, we tell you from the words of the developers.

In the story, Sire Lot, who uses primordial magic, blocks the way to the ancient ruins. He is slowly amassing the power to conquer the world, so the heroes must challenge him. Enlisting the support of the warlock Daichi and a character named Shaylin, they will travel to the Empyrean Forge hidden in the permafrost to clear the way to it from the monsters and get prehistoric treasures. The braves will need fire spells as a counterbalance to the coldness of the location.

Designers from Amazon Studio, working in sunny California, admitted that they looked for inspiration in photos of frozen Russian lakes. Looking at these images, experts managed to create ice arenas for battles with monsters. Special attention in the expedition is paid to the soundtrack, which combines instrumental music and various effects, including wind whistling, clicking and crackling. But the main nuance of the event will be its dependence on magic - without it there is nothing to think about defeating an enemy resistant to physical attacks. The Glacial Tarn will be released on December 12th - together with Eternal Frost add-on.
