Announcement of the 'Blood of Kings' update at the 'Allods Online' players meeting
At the traditional meeting of 'Allods Online' MMORPG players in Moscow, representatives of the game shared details about update 17.0, titled 'Blood of Kings', which is set to release this autumn.
The main theme of the addon is legacy and power. Players can expect a rich story about the struggle for the throne, intrigues, secrets, and the price of power. Here, everyone will answer the question: what is a person willing to give up for the throne, and what price will have to be paid if they ultimately gain it?
With the update, 'Allods Online' will introduce a location for fast character leveling. This will ease the entry into the game for new players and those who have previously left the project. Players will be able to quickly learn new mechanics while progressing through an engaging storyline and will receive a ready-made character to join in mass battles.
Players can also look forward to new adventures and the continuation of the storyline on the lost allod of Kvatore in the very heart of Kania. This area is divided into three parts - Castle, Fortress, and Stump - where three forces will clash: the nobles of Valira, the independent princes of Zagorya, and the ancient spirits of the Stump, amidst a struggle for power over Kania.
New islands and quest chains, unique regional tasks and collectible rewards, as well as an original series of adventures that conclude the main arc of chapter 17 will become available. In the raid at the Sadrok palace, players will encounter bosses they have not faced before. Additionally, changes will be made to class balance, the current equipment style, and the bonuses for old networks. New costumes and auras for ratings in Heroic and Astral adventures will also be introduced, which can be obtained in the first ranked season of the new addon.
Developers also mentioned that next year, the main focus will be on expanding classes and enhancing balance. The team will also work on the realism of effects, optimization, and visual upgrades. Furthermore, players can expect updates to personal and guild strongholds.
More information about 'Allods Online' can be found on the official website and the VK group. The game itself is available on the VK Play platform.
