Today, Amazon Games revealed the Living Roadmap for New World: Aeternum in its first post-launch Dev Update. This new format gives the community more insight into what the team is actively working on, what is in early development and early ideas that are being explored.
The team is excited to share in-development features as part of the new Living Roadmap, including more types of Seasonal Worlds, a revamped Invasion mode, new PVP modes, updates to reputation systems and more. The team is also exploring early concepts and ideas such as new weapons, a new zone, new PVE modes, new features such as company halls with storage and a siege system and more, all designed to deepen the endgame and bring new dimensions to the New World: Aeternum experience.
This roadmap starts with a deep dive into Season 7, which will feature a ton of new content for New World: Aeternum, including the introduction of Seasonal Worlds, a new Outpost Rush map and much more.
Highlights of Season 7 include:
- Seasonal Worlds: Seasonal Worlds are dynamic, limited-time servers designed to deliver unique gameplay experiences. The first of which features always-on PVP, loot that drops on death and unique items. Rewards and progression will carry over after the season ends, ensuring their efforts are never lost.
- New Outpost Rush Map: A new Outpost Rush map is coming, offering players a fresh battlefield to conquer and test their skills in this strategic PVP game mode. Outpost Rush is a team-based competition where players gather resources, capture objectives and outmaneuver opponents in epic battles for dominance and rewards.
- Mutated Expedition Upgrades and Combat Balance Updates: Unified Mutations will remove the need for multiple gear sets, add matchmaking for M3 and improve rewards for these challenging Expeditions. Season 7 will also bring balance updates to combat, starting with adjustments to various weapons.
- Daily Solo Trials: Solo Trials provide an exciting opportunity for players to test their skill, strategy and mastery in high-stakes battles against iconic bosses.
- Seasonal Events: Events like Legacy of Crassus and Rabbit’s Revenge are making a return, offering new players a chance to experience these seasonal favorites.
