Albion Online is gearing up for its next major update, the Abyssal Depths, set to launch on June 30th, 2025. Sandbox Interactive has promised a significant revamp that will bring a host of new features and improvements to the game. Let's dive into what you can expect from this exciting update.
What Are the Abyssal Depths in Albion Online?
The Abyssal Depths introduces a new type of PvP dungeon tailored for small, coordinated groups of two or three players. These instanced dungeons are set in a collapsing environment where you'll need to battle mobs and rival teams while racing against time to complete tactical objectives and gather spirits. The stakes are high, but so are the rewards, with unique loot up for grabs.
You can access these thrilling new dungeons through Antiquarian's Dens, which are also serving as new entry points for the updated Corrupted Dungeons and Hellgates. Both of these features are receiving enhancements to make them even more engaging.
This update is not just for seasoned players; it aims to make Albion Online more accessible to beginners. The post-tutorial experience is being integrated into the Albion Journal, offering a more structured and clear path for new players. This journey will guide you from simple tasks to more complex goals, covering crafting, combat, the Destiny Board, and building usage, ensuring a smoother transition into the game's rich world.
