[h3]We were not quite happy with the setting of Newharbor, making players not feel like the zone was open world and that they are ready to explore, as the old setting trapped players between undead and mountains where the only way trough was to engage the undead. This also made it annoying to return quests as players were instantly getting swarmed with the undead enemies. There has now been a huge revamp of Newharbor as we made it a lot more open and we also connected it properly to Kingdom of Edaria.[/h3]

[h3]We also added lootable chests around the world that makes exploring really rewarding. These chests contain random generated items of a loot set the players can collect![/h3]
