by Rainier on April 23, 2015 @ 1:44 p.m. PDT

WildStar offers epic high adventure, where players make their mark as Explorers, Soldiers, Scientists or Settlers and lay claim to a mysterious planet on the edge of known space.

WildStar’s iconic visual style and “Momentum Mechanics” immerse players in a deep world stacked with content, challenges and rewards that respond to the play style choices of individual players.  Depending on a combination of faction, race, class and path, WildStar will present gamers with unending surprises, mini-quests and challenges, ensuring that their experiences are fun and fresh.

WildStar takes place on the planet Nexus, a mysterious world vacated by the ancient Elden but left rich with treasures and technologies to discover and acquire.

Initialization Core Y-83 is WildStar’s new 20-player raid arriving with the upcoming release of the Invasion: Nexus update. Unlike current raids in WildStar, Initialization Core Y-83 will not require the completion of an regular attunement process. It will offers players a bite-sized raid experience that potentially could be completed in less than 30 minutes, two levels of difficulty and plenty of rewards for those who takes on the encounter.


Star-Comm Basin is under attack from three different evil groups: a band of Grimvoid Marauders, a slew of Purewater Ikthians and the Strain. The objective? Alone or with a group, players will embark on elder-game quests and public events that rotate daily where they will need to defeat one of the three evils that has claimed the central area of Star-Comm. In addition, completing quests and taking part in public events gives players a ton of great new rewards like high-end gear, new housing décor items or companion pets.

How about things like fiendish new enemies?  How about daily rotating quests and public events?  And how about new fancy loot?!  Now that I’ve got your attention, let’s get into the details of Star-Comm Basin!

The Caretaker needs your help!

Star-Comm Basin is under attack from some of the biggest and baddest enemies that you've seen so far.  A band of Grimvoid Marauders, a slew of Purewater Ikthians, and a whole lot o’ Strain have taken ownership of the land at Star-Comm Basin.

These groups didn't come empty-handed; baddies of all shapes and sizes have been recruited to join their cause and get what's theirs. So sharpen up yer blades, load up yer blasters, and get ready to be thrown into the mix with some of the nastiest characters in the galaxy.

How’s it work?

Alone or with a group, you'll embark on elder-game quests and public events that rotate daily! Each day of the week, you'll find that one of the three groups has claimed the central area of Star-Comm, and it'll be up to you to ruin their day.

Bring on the awesome loot!
