Dev Talk: Development Update


The Rise of Avalon update went live on August 12, 2020, bringing the Roads of Avalon, Corrupted Dungeons, and much more to the world of Albion. In this Dev Talk, Game Director Robin Henkys gives an update about the current state of the game as well as a preview of what's coming next. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QqL7GoYDVI No time to watch, or prefer a written summary?

2020 in Albion


2020 brought two major updates and massive growth in player numbers. The last update was developed with almost our entire team working from home, and since then weve been busy dealing with the challenges of distributed production, increased player numbers, and staying on top of patches and future content. Today we want to give you an update on what's coming next. Two exciting developments are coming soon:

Midseason Update: Brimstone & Mist


The first of these is the Brimstone & Mist Midseason Update, which expands on the Rise of Avalon update launched this past summer:
  • New Mobs and Traps in Corrupted Dungeons, including Hellhounds, new Heretics and demons, deadly spike and lava traps, and an all-new final boss, the Demonic Harbinger
  • Rebalanced existing mobs and increased Demonic Shard health in Slayer difficulty
  • Added numerous fishing areas to Roads of Avalon
  • Added an exclusive rare fish that can only be caught in the Roads of Avalon, plus a new line of food and corresponding rare fish recipe
  • Changes to Disarray (zerg debuff):
    • Disarray will now depend on the relative difference in Disarray levels between you and your target
    • This will boost the importance of damage dealers and healers while ensuring each role stays impactful no matter the size of the battle
    • Disarray will still protect smaller groups from being overwhelmed
  • Changes to the Smart Cluster Queue:
    • Now keeps existing parties together when possible
    • Party leaders can now assign party as well as player priorities
    • Improved the way the system deals with allied players, ensuring players don't displace allies
  • ...and much more

Brimstone and Mist goes live on October 21 - read more about ithere.

Android Updating + Google Play Open Beta


  • Improved Android updating:
    • In-app updating will dramatically reduce the size of the .apk download
    • Downloads changed content only, which should result in much faster patching
    • Introduced with Brimstone and Mist, but will mostly affect future patches, since this update contains significant structural changes that need to be downloaded
  • Google Play Store Beta:
    • Happening inearlyNovember
    • Install and update Albion Online via the Google Play Store, making it easy and convenient to keep the game updated

Looking to the Future


Of course, the Midseason Update and the mobile version arent all weve been working on. With Rise of Avalon we concluded much of the work we set out to do in the Queen Update: we added interconnectivity to the world, added a space for mid-level guilds to play and live in, and we added an all-new solo activity with its own competitive metagame. At this time, work has already begun on our next update, in which we finally want to fulfill our vision for a new and massively improved Faction Warfare system. On top of that, we've got some exciting changes for Hellgates planned as well. We'll be releasing more Dev Talks on these subjects after the release of Brimstone and Mist on October 21. That's all for today - thanks for watching!

  • Albion Online is a sandbox MMORPG set in an open medieval fantasy world. The game features a player-driven economy where nearly every item is player-crafted. Combine armor pieces and weapons suited to your playstyle in a unique, classless "you are what you wear" system. Explore the world, take on other adventurers in thrilling battles, conquer territories, and build a home.



    Craft. Trade. Conquer.
    Dive in now and become part of a living fantasy world where everybody matters.

    Key Features



    From basic tools and clothes to mighty armors and powerful weapons – nearly every item in the game is crafted by players, in player-constructed buildings, from resources gathered by players. Buy, sell, and trade with other players at local marketplaces all across the world of Albion. Craft rare and powerful items, then sell them to the highest bidder and grow your fortune.



    In Albion Online's classless combat system, you are what you wear. The weapons and armor you use define your skills, and switching playstyles is as easy as switching gear. Test out new equipment anytime and change up your weapons, armor, and mounts to suit any situation. Hone your character’s skills by crafting new items, or by simply using your favorite equipment.



    From solo to small-group to large-scale battles, you'll need strategy, tactics, and skill to prevail. Test yourself against other adventurers in high-risk, high-reward full-loot fights. Level your combat specializations, create unique builds with complementary skills, and use every tool at your disposal to emerge victorious.



    Join a guild and carve out your own piece of Albion in massive open-world battles. Claim territories for access to incredible resources, construct guild halls, and conquer entire cities to levy taxes and grow your wealth. Build a Hideout to give your guild a powerful home base deep in dangerous lands. Lead your guild to victory in the Crystal League, and track your progress against other guilds worldwide on a constantly-updated seasonal leaderboard.



    Claim a city plot or private island and make it your own. Grow crops to sell or craft into food, raise your own livestock and mounts, and place crafting stations for other players to use for a fee. Stock your house with custom furniture and trophies, build chests to store your growing collection of loot, and hire laborers to keep everything at your homestead running smoothly.



    From small scouting bands to massive bosses, from dungeons to full-blown faction bases, the inhabitants of Albion’s open world await your challenge. Take on six different factions, each with different enemies that require unique strategies. Partake in solo or group Expeditions, or seek out the ultimate thrill by facing demons and other players alike in Hellgates and Corrupted Dungeons.



    Explore five beautiful biomes, each with its own challenges. Gather valuable raw materials for crafting, or cast a line into Albion's waters to catch rare and valuable fish. Seek out randomly generated solo and group dungeons and slay powerful foes for valuable loot. Enter the mystical Roads of Avalon to discover ever-changing paths between distant zones, face off against long-dormant foes, and build your own Hideout in this vast and ancient land.



    Albion Online is a true cross-platform MMO experience. Whether you prefer Windows, Mac, Linux, or even Android or iOS (mobile currently in beta), one account lets you play on all platforms, with all players on a single shared server. Forge alliances with other players worldwide and take part in massive battles to determine the fate of Albion.
