In New World, players are pitted against the haunted wilderness of a mysterious island known as Aeternum. Success in New World depends on players’ ability to conquer not only companies of rival players, but the dark soul of Aeternum itself, as it unleashes undead legions, hell-bent on purging them from its shores. In its unsettled state, Aeternum is open and chaotic, but rich in opportunity for soldiers, explorers, artisans, and empire-builders.

Fate has summoned you to the shores of Aeternum, the Eternal Isle. Overcome the brutal legions of The Corrupted and draw battle lines with competing players in this land of danger and opportunity. In a land hell-bent on your destruction, what will you do to survive? Strike out alone to forge your own heroic path, or band together, fortify, and fight.

Massive battles set New World apart, with fortress sieges against other players and supernatural invasions, featuring up to 100 players on the battlefield at once. Combat in New World is visceral and skill-based, giving players direct control over their movements and attacks. Players can band together to form powerful Companies operating out of fortified strongholds, or play alone and acquire and customize their own homes as they contribute to the growth of the larger community around them. New World provides near-limitless play, with classless character progression, social systems, and rich crafting mechanics.

Amazon Games invites New World players to awaken the ancient dragon spirit in the Year of the Dragon in-game event! From February 7 - 21, players can offer tributes for good fortune and blessings to unlock new event-specific, daily rewards – but they’ll have to watch out for the Corrupted Maiden, who is waiting to snatch blessings away from unsuspecting adventurers.

At this year’s event, players can help the citizens of Ebonscale Reach celebrate the Year of the Dragon by participating in traditional Tribute Offerings, watching firework ceremonies, and joining Longtable Banquets and the Fortune’s Gift Sack gathering.
