NosTale (PC)

Dangerous dimensions, raids, new Specialists, and a meet-up at gamescom

On July 15, the next major content update for NosTale — “Act 10 Part 2: Guardians of the Dimensions” — was released. The story surrounding the Legend of the Dimensions continues, bringing four brand-new Specialists into the game, drawing inspiration from legendary heroes and mythological figures like Achilles, Thor, Admiral Yi, and Merlin.

The update also introduces a new raid against Dr. Dimensio for up to 15 players, alongside numerous quality-of-life improvements. And since summer is in full swing, Captain Pete O’Peng and his pirate crew are back for more antics until August 19.

Plus! On Saturday, August 29, fans will have the chance to meet NosTale Community Managers Daveius and Zenitsusanteam in person at gamescom in Cologne. Space is limited, so advance registration via email is required. The exact meeting point and time will be posted on Discord shortly before the event.

OGame (PC)

Season of Anarchy available now

OGame has launched its “Season of Anarchy” — an intense seasonal challenge that focuses on combat and assertiveness. Every new server launched on June 5 features special seasonal achievements that can be completed over a 12-week period. These include 15 achievements, 6 avatars, 5 planet skins, and 5 unique titles. All earned rewards are account-wide and can be used on any server. Once the season ends, the server will continue to operate normally, though seasonal achievements can no longer be completed.

Under a Rock (PC, PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S)

Closed Alpha underway

Under a Rock is currently in the first phase of its closed alpha test, with a small group of select community members given a chance to get a first behind-the-scenes look. The current alpha test focuses on the building system, tasking testers with exploring, experimenting, and providing feedback that will directly shape the game’s ongoing development. If you missed out, don’t worry — additional slots will be opened up gradually in future alpha phases. To be in with a chance of participating in future playtests, be sure to follow Under a Rock on Steam.

Elsword (PC)

Secret Dungeon and major interface updates 

The latest update to Elsword gives players access to a brand-new Secret Dungeon. The “Shadow of the Lordless Castle” dungeon is accessible once reaching a Combat Power of 15 million. As the most challenging level in the Secret Dungeon system to date, it offers a reward of 28 million ED and a Superb Secret Cube. In addition, the ticket system for Secret Dungeons has been overhauled. Tickets are now used automatically, making the process much more streamlined and convenient. Elsewhere, the update also introduces extensive interface improvements for trading, crafting, guilds, upgrading, and more.

Metin2 (PC)

Now with more characters per account 

More is more, right? We’ve expanded character creation options in Metin2, with the new premium character tickets allowing players to create up to five additional premium characters per server, on top of their five standard character slots. Each ticket allows for the creation of one premium character; if the character is deleted, a new ticket is required. Note: when transferring to a different server, make sure that there is sufficient space for additional premium characters on the new server.
