Infernal chasms are opening up! The Abyssal Depths update is here, tearing open ancient vaults beneath the continent and unleashing a new era of peril and power. With demon-filled dungeons, a new hub for PvP mayhem, and fire-forged rewards, this update invites players to descend into the Depths – and face what stirs beneath…

Into the Abyss
The Depths offer fast-paced, small-group PvP encounters in a collapsing dungeon, where players earn buffs, loot, and Souls as they push deeper into hellish chambers, and the boldest can unlock great treasures locked beneath. The new Antiquarian’s Den, accessible from every Royal City and Caerleon, acts as a staging ground for these and all other hell-themed instanced PvP modes. Players can build their Antiquarian Standing by defeating others across the Depths, Corrupted Dungeons, and Hellgates, and unlock hell-themed vanity items and two new sinister spider mounts.
A Smooth Path Forward
A new Orange PvP ruleset in the Depths, where players drop only their inventory on death, offers a more forgiving entry into Albion’s PvP. A fully reworked New Player Experience also now guides adventurers through key systems with greater clarity. The new Character Progression category in the Albion Journal offers structured goals from early play into advanced mastery, and a reworked Learning Point system ensures smoother, more intuitive Destiny Board progression.
Crystals and Clarity
Two new Crystal Weapons join the fray: the Truebolt Hammer, which channels raw energy to shield allies and stun foes, and the Stillgaze Staff, whose cobra form petrifies enemies with uncleanseable control.
Meanwhile, important UI upgrades bring clarity and ease to your journey. Enjoy refined item filters and categorization, a unified HUD tracker that reduces clutter and adapts to your needs, and clear indicators of where vanity items are unlocked, among other improvements.
