Albion Online News

Season 15 is coming to a climax, and the battle for territory in the Outlands is becoming ever fiercer. As Albion’s guilds pore over their plans and schemes, a figure is ready to step into the fray and unleash the forces of chaos…

This new vanity bundle is stepping out from the darkness next week! Get this mighty fighter on your side and assert your power over the lands. More details coming soon…

The Disciples of Morgana have re-emerged from the shadows... and for the entire month of May, you can take the Morgana Challenge to collect fantastic rewards. Earn points for open-world activities, unlock chests to get valuable loot, and claim your very own Morgana Raven mount.

MORGANA RAVEN: This month's Challenge brings back the popular Morgana Raven, a fearsome, fast-moving flying mount with an area-of-effect Fear spell. (Note: the Morgana Raven requires the same terrain pathing as all other mounts, and cannot fly over gaps or obstacles).

AVATAR RING: Adventurers who rack up enough total Challenge Points will also earn the Morgana Challenge Avatar Ring, a menacing, fiery frame that will give your avatar an aura of dread. This non-tradable item permanently unlocks this avatar ring for one character.

SEASONAL SPECIALS: All month long, reach weekly goals to unlock Morgana Challenge chests. These chests contain valuable rewards like Adventurer's Tomes and Silver bags, along with unique Morgana-themed furniture items.

As always, you can earn Challenge Points by gathering, fishing, farming, and killing monsters. Points count simultaneously toward a daily bonus, a weekly unlockable chest, and the monthly mount. So log in, head out into the open world, gather points, and claim your rewards!

The Season 15 Crystal League Championship takes place June 4-5, with Albion's top Crystal League players facing off for tremendous prizes including the ultra-rare Sabertooth Rex Swiftclaw Skin. The tournament will be open to the top 8 Crystal League teams of the season, based on the following:

• Number of Level 9 wins
• Number of Level 8 wins
• Number of Level 7 wins
• etc.

This time around, matches will be hard-capped instead of soft-capped to limit the overall regear costs to teams. And as with past championships, all matches in the Season 15 CLC will use full-loot rules.

Additional rules:

• Teams must sign up by Tuesday, May 31 at 10:00 UTC
• Participants must use the same team and characters that qualified during the season, and one player cannot qualify with multiple teams
• Each team can allocate one substitute
• For full rules, signup info, and the final schedule, see this forum post

For the last two weeks Albion’s inhabitants have been busying themselves collecting eggs and growing bunnies. But every party has to come to an end, and now it’s time for a gruesome reminder of what awaits us all… starting today, the brand-new Undead Direwolf skin is now available in the in-game store!

This premiere mount skin transforms your Direwolf base mount into an unholy beast, raised from the dead through forbidden magic. With its eerie glowing eyes, tattered pelt, and exposed ribcage, it's sure to strike fear into your enemies as you stalk them from the shadows.

Characterized by their high overall speed and maneuverability, Direwolves are consistently one of Albion's most-used mounts. The Undead Direwolf adds another option for those looking to upgrade their Direwolf's appearance, and joins a growing collection of skins for this ever-popular mount.

Like all mount skins, once the Undead Direwolf is unlocked it can be used by all characters on your account. With the treasure hunters of Albion out on their spring bunnies, grab this skin today and do a little hunting of your own!
