Astraeos Mega Update is now live!
[center]
[previewyoutube]TRAILER HERE[/previewyoutube]
Explore the vast new desert landmass of [color]Pyranthos[/color], shaped by myth, ruin, and survival. Far from an empty wasteland, Pyranthos is a hostile, ancient region where shifting sands give way to forgotten structures, buried pathways, and environments designed to test preparation as much as curiosity. This is a place built for exploration, but it doesn’t reward carelessness.
Developed in Partnership with Nitrado, this update pushes Astraeos forward with new challenges across the map. Powerful creatures roam both the surface and the depths below, ancient forces stir in long-abandoned arenas, previously unexplored artifact caves beckon the curious, and new boss encounters await those ready to face them.
The dunes of Pyranthos are not getting any friendlier. Alongside the [color]Deathworms[/color] you already know to fear, a new threat now prowls the sands: the [color]Scorpion King and Queen[/color]. Massive and bloodthirsty, it is absolutely not something you want to stumble into unprepared.
New [color]Skeleton enemies[/color], rattling remnants of battles long forgotten, stalk the sands with relentless hunger. These undead foes protect their lost world with the might of their ancient gods.
The minotaur [color]Minotarchos[/color] awaits new challengers, and while it doesn’t rely on flashy gimmicks, its strength is worthy of its myth. Those who bring it down will be greatly rewarded and one step closer to defeating the legendary Hydra.
Buried in the ruins of Pyranthos, [color]Hydraskos the Unbroken[/color] awaits. Defeating all five hungry heads will demand teamwork, timing, and a whole lot of firepower. Cut the heads from the body and the fight shifts, but only if your team stays in sync.
And last but not least, the [color]Manticore[/color] has flown from Scorched Earth and made its new nest in Astraeos' boss arena.
Meet the [color]Grand Tortugar[/color], a mobile stronghold built for endurance. Beneath its massive armored shell lies something more than protection. Open its carapace and it becomes a living command post, allowing multiple riders to shelter within while defending from behind natural plating. Close it, and the Tortugar transforms into a near-impenetrable bastion with your crew breathing freely inside.
It moves with steady purpose across both land and seabed, capable of walking the ocean floor and harvesting valuable resources. And when the waters crackle with danger, the Tortugar remains… shockingly unimpressed.
Whether you’re exploring the scorching sands of Pyranthos or staging an amphibious assault, the Tortugar is ready to carry your crew and hold the line.
