Season of the Divide Begins May 13th.

Today ‘Amazon Games’ announced Season 8, Season of the Divide for New World : Aeternum. Season of the Divide will begin on May 13th. This season is poised to be high risk high reward. Featuring fierce competition and fast progression in massive PvP encounters. Regardless if players are speed running max level or trying to remain “pristine”, Season 8 will reward those who embrace chaos and survive it.  

The Seasonal World, Hardcore; is set to introduce twists to character progression. Characters will start in a “Unfallen” state and start acquiring elite rewards whilst surviving. However upon death you lose the ability to unlock anymore unfallen equipment. Unlike other hardcore games your character will remain on the server and you will enjoy an easier experience with plenty of other seasonal rewards to seek. 

Levelling and gearing up is faster than ever before in this limited-time world. A streamlined main quest line to follow will ensure it. Limits have been lifted on Artifact equip limits, allowing players to power up like never before. The Seasonal Hardcore World will be launching in early June and only be available for a limited time.

A new map for Outpost Rush called Coral Divide will be introduced this season. It will pit players in a vibrant, ocean themed arena. The arena is built to emphasise verticality and tactical flanking positions. Designed to have intense centre fort clashes.

PvP will be introducing a Capture The Flag mode. During Season 8 players will have a chance to preview and test the new mode. Capture The Flag will pit two teams of 10 players against each others to fight and secure the opponents flag. Powers up and jump pads are included to make it feel more competitive and unlike other PvP modes.

Outpost Rush: Barebones is a new spin on a popular game mode. It will level up the playing field to the max level. A perfect game mode for players that don’t have the gear but need to prove they have the skill.

Limited time huge threats from Expeditions will be featured as world bosses. Players can band together to defeat level 70 bosses for up levelled loot. Look forward to battling Mammoth Mahantaram, Scarab Boss Khepri, and Fire Naga Ifrit.

Barbershops to reimagine your character will now be available at all Stylemancers. Players will use barbershop tokens earn through gameplay or purchasable in store, to tweak their appearance. 

Below is the living roadmap for April:
