Season 30 of Albion Online has started
Sandbox Interactive released a major update for its MMORPG Albion Online, which radically changes PvP multiplayer. The update is titled «Rift of Worlds» — in it, users will find a system of provinces on the global map, vehicles and faction camps, as well as fortresses attracting siege enthusiasts from all over Albion. Also presented is a huge number of rewards and decorations related to the new season. We tell you in more detail what you'll be doing in the game in the winter ahead.
What does «Rift of Worlds» add to Albion Online?
With the release of the update, faction warfare becomes a campaign that every hero can influence. The strategic map is now divided into separate areas (provinces), controlled by guilds from fortresses. This perspective, firstly, allows you to immediately see where combat is taking place, and secondly, to assess the size of holdings and the strength of influence of your specific group. So the gamer has a choice: help their own repel an attack in one place, intensify pressure in another, or together with allies outline the next target for a strike. Any strategic success brings the fighting side not only land, but also supplies. At the center of each area is a fortress — a stronghold of defenders and the main target of attackers, because it is behind the walls that a cache of weapons is hidden, and capturing this point will give power over the entire region.
In conflict zones, you can also find bandit camps. If a faction intends to accumulate more supplies, these points are also worth clearing out, but other groups are free to burst into the same camp that you have targeted. The main value in each camp is a chest. The path to battlefields and faction outposts has become easier thanks to special transport. Routes are laid out in advance, so anyone wishing can quickly get to where the fighting is raging. Warriors who have participated in sieges can wear clothing items and decorations of their army, like insignia. Among other changes in the patch, it is worth noting the improvement of missions for beginners — they have become more diverse, and are also accompanied by story cutscenes.
