Absolution Update is now LIVE!

Our final Champion release for 2021 is finally here:

Introducing, Azaan the Eternal!

Once the king of a long-forgotten kingdom, the Eternal has existed to see countless reigns end. Forged in the crucible of the Pyre’s flames as the embodiment of all that Persists, Azaan is tasked with maintaining the existence of a Realm kept free from Abyssal influence.

Few still alive have ever had cause to engage with the one of the oldest of the Pyre Lords, but those who have know that his purifying flames care not for friend or foe, only for the complete eradication of the Abyss. Events in the Realm have upset the balance, leading to the Abyss’ influence creeping ever closer, and so the Eternal descends from on high to deliver a final warning to the Realm: deal with the Abyss, or have it be dealt with, by any means deemed necessary.

In addition to Azaan, Paladins is welcoming our Dark Depths Event Pass featuring Tyra and Saati!

Venture many leagues under the waves with our latest Event Pass – Dark Depths! Instantly unlock the Azure Depths loading frame for purchasing, and unlock a total of 24 levels of rewards as you play!

Players can also purchase a Buy All option to get all content in the Dark Depths Event Pass instantly!

We know you’ve been asking about when you’ll be able to snag yourselves our second set of Community Avatars for 2021 - well the answer is now!

Starting today, play any 2 (non-bot) games of the same mode in a row to get one chest roll.

You can earn up to 4 chest rolls per day!

Example:

2 x Team Deathmatch in a row = 1 roll
2 x Siege in a row = 1 roll
2 x Onslaught in a row = 1 roll
2 x Ranked in a row = 1 roll

This not only gives you a chance at all the Hallowed Avatars and Autumn Maeve but a second chance at all of the Paladins Anniversary Avatars inside as well.

Event Details:

Starts - Monday, October 18, 2021 @ 12PM EST
