The Rise of Nehliya is Live!

The Rise of Nehliya dawns upon ArcheAge and ArcheAge: Unchained. Explore the brand new Mysthrane Gorge location and work with the Crimson Watch to understand more about the Ipnya and their struggles with brand new Main Story Quests! Challenge the ancient Ipnya Machinery gone rampant – the Risopoda. These war machines have lost control without the presence of the Ipnya and challenge the integrity of the very Sealstones holding Akasch in their alternate dimension. Afterward, eliminate the biggest threat to Erenor so far – Nehliya. Stowed away for thousands of years, this Akasch had been laying still awaiting instruction on releasing the rest of her people out into the world of Erenor. All this and much more awaits you in our most recent update!



Beyond the Western Hiram Mountains lies a land embued with magic and evil. Now abandoned, it was once the battleground between the Ipnya and Akasch and home to the Halnaak’s Arcane Academy. It holds the story of the past and the future.



Join the Crimson Watch and Ardios to unveil the secrets that lie within the Mysthrane Gorge about the Ipnya and Akasch with (9) nine brand new Main Story Quests!



Designed by the Ipnya to defeat the Akasch, conquer the agile and powerful war machines, Risopoda! Each Risopod was built to aid the outnumbered Ipnya forces while under their control; without Ipnysh presence, these machines will wreak havoc and destroy the very Sealstones that keep the Akasch within The Abyss.



Fight the brand new Raid Boss lurking within Mysthrane Gorge, Nehliya! Escaping through a crack in the seal that kept them in The Abyss, this Akasch keeps a watchful eye over the entirety of Erenor waiting for instruction from her Queen. Stop her before it’s too late.



Get the simplicity of being a landowner with a fraction of the work! Introducing the Farmhand system, you can now hire your very own Farmhand to tend your land and do Trade Runs. Improve your productivity with your very own Farmhand available for any farm thats 16×16 or larger!

Experience the Rise of Nehliya on the PTS!

"So this is what the Queen sees, the beautiful world." - Nehliya

The Rise of Nehliya arrives on November 12, and you can get a sneak peek at the latest update on our Public Test Server once they are open over the next couple of days! Travel to the Western Hiram Mountains to explore the new and untouched Mysthrane Gorge, hidden away for thousands of years. Who knows what lies within this forsaken land.

Enjoy (9) nine new Main Story Quests beginning in Aegis Island with Ardios, and traverse the mysterious Mysthrane Gorge with the assistance of the Crimson Watch. Additionally, look for all (9) nine new Exploration locations scattered throughout the map! However, tread with caution as the ancient Ipnya machinery lie dormant and in wait. Should they be reactivated, our demise is all but certain!

If you successfully conquer the Risopoda, you can then try your hand at defeating Nehliya, Queen of Annihilation herself! This boss is of Akasch origin and will require not only teamwork but hefty firepower to fell. Though once done, her spoils are yours to reap!

Between trying out and experiencing the newest content, we are grateful for your help in identifying bugs, localization issues, and other pesky kinks. We invite you to provide all feedback and bug reports in the thread here!

  • Press 'Play' and join the fray!


It's important to remember that Fluffy will not be available during this testing period. However, there will be NPCs placed in Marianople, Austera, and Diamond Shores that will provide some gear, Mounts, Labor Rechargers, and other goodies to help you test the new content!

The Rise of Nehliya is Upon Us...

Defeat enemies corrupted by the Akasch, obtain Soulslake Gear to show off your victory and conquest against a truly powerful monster and defend the Sealstones at whatever the cost. This update is sure to put your vehicle upgrading skills to the test and push your faction coordination to its limits!
