The Beta Challenge offers every participant the opportunity to unlock an exclusive, brand-new vanity set: the Duelist. This full wardrobe set will transform your character into a dashing swordfighter, masterful in close-quarters combat and ready to pounce on your enemies weaknesses. Once unlocked, the Duelist will be available to all characters on your account, on any server.

Performing open-world activities will grant players challenge points, and as you earn more of these points you can use them to unlock each of the vanity items. And in addition, Albion Europe Founder Pack owners will be able to unlock a matching mount skin: the Duelist’s Lynx!

The milestones for each item are as follows

25,000 points: Duelist’s Boots
50,000 points: Duelist’s Cape
75,000 points: Duelist’s Hat
100,000 points: Duelist’s Armor
100,000 points and Founder Status: Duelist’s Lynx

Albion Online is finally getting a server for Europe

Albion Online is one of the few MMOs with Linux support, and it's set to have a big change soon with the introduction of a server for Europe.

Albion Online is Coming to Europe!

Albion Online will launch a new server for the Europe and MENA regions in April 2024! This server will make the world of Albion more accessible than ever for countless new and existing players. Along with offering greatly improved connection speeds and ping for players in the region, the new server will also offer optimized timers for ingame events, as Albion's two newest languages, Turkish and Arabic, further expand Albion's global community.

Here are the major features of the new server:

A fresh start in an untouched version of the game, where all players start as equals and can claim their own piece of Albion
A game world that is fully separate and independent from the existing servers
Greatly improved connection speeds and ping for the whole Europe / MENA region
Timings of game events (territory battles, Faction Warfare, etc.) that are optimized for the region
Playable in all of Albion's supported languages, including the two newest additions: Turkish and Arabic

Please note that with the launch of Albion Europe, the two existing servers will be renamed:

Albion West → Albion Americas
Albion East → Albion Asia
