Discovering Aeternum: Expeditions

Unearth some of the island’s darkest secrets in Expeditions like the Empyrean Forge. Here’s a preview of what to expect.

The Empyrean Forge was the primary site used by the Ancients to build their constructs and war machines in ages past. The legendary Torso Boss was first designed and constructed here. After the destructive war that ended the Ancients’ rule, the Forge was abandoned but its mystic fires never went out. Centuries later, the wizard Myrddin made his way into the labyrinthian depths to study the techniques of Ancient engineering. His experiments opened a gate to other realms, allowing elemental beings and magics to come flowing through. These energies fused themselves to the Empyrean Forge, giving rise to bizarre beings birthed in the fires of the primal world and shaped by the Azoth of the Ancients. The powers of the Forge are coveted by the Varangians, who seek to unlock the secrets of the Ancients and their sorceries.

Discovering Aeternum: Isabella and the Corrupted

Isabella is an intrepid explorer that ventured to the island in pursuit of Azoth, the source of magic in Aeternum. Possessed by the insatiable evil of the Corrupted, she now creeps ever closer to spreading the corruption’s ghastly influence beyond Aeternum. The coastal storms have grown worse, countless adventurers wash ashore daily, and an ominous presence lurks around every village. To stop her, you’ll need to successfully navigate the island’s restless terrain as well as different adversaries.

Look forward to exploring Expeditions and facing off against Isabella when New World: Aeternum comes to Steam (PC), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on October 15. Don’t forget to also check out the next episode of Aeternum Survival Guide series on X. Thanks for your support! We’ll see you in Aeternum.
