The dead just won't stay buried! For the entire month of July, take the Undead Challenge to unlock fantastic rewards. Earn points for open-world activities, unlock chests to get valuable loot, and claim your very own Spectral Direboar.

SPECTRAL DIREBOAR: This month's Challenge brings back the popular Spectral Direboar, a ghostly mount with a unique spell, Glimpse of the Other Side, which renders you temporarily invisible. Use it to evade your enemies... or to launch a sneak attack!

AVATAR RING: Adventurers who rack up enough total Challenge Points will also earn the Undead Challenge Avatar Ring, featuring a spooky skull-themed design that will strike fear into the hearts of your foes. This non-tradable item permanently unlocks this avatar border for one character, or can be traded to the Vanity Merchant for one Vanity Token.

SEASONAL SPECIALS: All month long, reach weekly goals to unlock Undead Challenge chests. In addition to valuable rewards like Adventurer's Tomes and Silver, you'll also have a chance to unlock spooky furniture items like the Candelabra, Lantern, and Memorial of the Fallen, as well as rare and valuable Undead Vanity Skins.

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 / avatar ring reward. So log in, head out into the open world, gather points, and claim these rewards while you can!

The Titan Vanity Bundle is here! This brand-new premiere bundle is available to buy now, and includes a full costume set along with the Titan’s Warhorse Mount Skin for your Armored Horse base mount.

The Titan is a towering, storied warrior, feared and respected by all in Albion for its battlefield prowess. With thick, rock-like plating, it seems as ancient and elemental as the mountains of Albion themselves, and from within emanates a crystalline blue light. The Titan’s Warhorse comes encased in matching armor, giving you the appearance of a monolithic mass brought to life as you loom over your enemies.

The Titan bundle includes the following vanity skins, which work on male and female characters alike:

• Titan's Helmet
• Titan's Armor
• Titan's Boots
• Titan's Cape
• Titan's Warhorse

As with past bundles, you can use all costume and mount skins with all characters on your account, on both servers, and they are never lost or destroyed. All items will be unlocked in the in-game "Appearance" menu after purchase.

Get this premiere bundle today and become a timeless warrior!

Albion’s next guild season begins this weekend on both servers! At 00:00 UTC, Albion East Season 2 begins, before Albion West Season 20 starts at 11:00 UTC. Both seasons see huge rewards up for grabs, like the Crystal Juggernaut. Click here for a full season rundown.



[h3]Season Changes[/h3]

This season brings some changes to Hideouts, with Level 4 or higher Hideouts draining more energy, and the energy gain from Power Cores for non-HQ Hideouts reduced. Castle and Castle Outpost treasures now spawn 30 minutes earlier on Albion East. Meanwhile, the Crystal League and Crystal Arena will use the Cross Map this season, and Rank Points have been adjusted to make progression through the ranks flow more smoothly.



[h3]Watch the Season Kickoff Live[/h3]

As always, we’ll be broadcasting the season kickoff live on AlbionTV. At 13:30 UTC on June 17 we’ll be broadcasting Invasion Day on Albion East. Then at 17:30 UTC we’ll bring coverage from Albion West ahead of the first round of territory resets there. Finally, at 00:30 UTC on June 18, those in the North and South American time zones can tune in for the second round of territory resets on Albion West. All open-world fights are broadcast live with a 15-minute delay.

Check out coverage from a recent Invasion Day here:

Albion’s vast lands are more alive than ever, with new adventurers pouring in, forging wars and alliances, and etching their name into Albion’s history. But these are not the first, and legends tell of titanic figures who clashed here in the past.

A brand-new vanity set launches next week, bringing one of these powerful fighters to the fray…

This weekend sees the latest Crystal League Championship take place, with tournaments on both Albion East and West. And we’ll be showing both on AlbionTV!

From 10:00 UTC on Saturday, tune in to see the tournament on Albion East. And then on Sunday at 17:00 UTC, you can watch the Albion West CLC. Both promise to be filled with action, as teams compete to win huge amounts of Gold and the rare Sabertooth Rex Swiftclaw Skin!



Each tournament will take place on a single day, and will use a single-elimination format. 

For team breakdowns, full rules, and the final schedule, keep an eye on this forum post.
