Latest News

I wanted to reach out especially to those who tried the beta in week one and stepped away. I completely understand, we had some real issues with balancing that made things frustrating, and I appreciate everyone who stuck around to give feedback.

The good news is we've spent the past week addressing those problems. Training and vocational progression have been rebalanced significantly, and affinity items are now much more accessible early on. The experience is in a way better place than it was at launch.

If you tried Almyria before and it didn't feel right, I genuinely think now's a good time to give it another shot. The game we have today is what we should have launched with, and I'd love for you to experience it in this more polished state.

Thanks again to everyone who provided feedback, we'll continue to only get better from here.

The Beta Season for 2026 has officially started!

You can download the client now from our website:

Please keep in mind this is still a beta. We’ve made several major system changes, so bugs are expected as we work through this phase together. Your patience and feedback mean a lot to us.

2026 Beta Season Launch

We're excited to announce that the new beta season will be launching on:
Friday, January 30, 2026 4:00 PM UTC

Lowered Rates
Experience: 3x
Skills: 3x
Magic: 3x
Loot: 1x
These changes aim to ensure a long-term focus and a more stable economy.

In-game Store
The store only contains purely cosmetic items such as outfits, companion skins, decorations, and so on. We're strongly against anything that's pay-to-win, so rest assured you won't find any here.
All coins you purchase will be re-added to your account when the main season launches, so your purchases will never go to waste.

Bots Prohibited
To ensure a fun and fair experience for all, from now on, using any kind of bot or macro will lead to a permanent account deletion.

Our Vision
We're committing to a deeper RPG experience this season with more immersive lore, engaging NPC interactions, and reworked areas that feel more natural. Expect to see enhanced existing systems, added quality-of-life features, polished UI, and much more. For more information, check out our previous announcements and changelogs.

Keep in mind this will still be a beta season. While we've tried our best to make it as polished and bug-free as possible, we will likely run into a few, so if you find one, please report it to us.

We're looking forward to seeing everyone in-game soon. Thanks so much for your patience and for being such a supportive community.

See you soon!

New Action Progress Bar System

We've added a new action progress bar system for interactive gameplay.

Certain actions and quest interactions will now trigger a progress bar. While it's active:
You may not move
You may not attack
You may not cast spells
You may not take damage

Any of these will result in the progress bar being interrupted and the action must be restarted.

This allows for more immersive quest design, meaningful interactions, and prevents players from rushing through collect-style objectives.

You'll begin seeing this system used in new and updated content going forward.

New Task System Released
We have completely reworked the task system to create a more immersive and quest-driven experience. The previous automated system, which generated repeatable tasks for every monster in the game, has been fully removed. In its place is a streamlined NPC-based task system that encourages interaction, exploration, and variety in hunting.

New Quest-Driven Task Structure
Tasks are now offered directly by NPCs rather than being automatically assigned. NPCs with a ! above their heads may be potential task givers, so keep an eye out while exploring the world. Each task is handcrafted to fit its region, monsters, or narrative context. Task will not end with a mini-boss fight but 'Greater' monsters will still remain in the game as replacement for mini-bosses. Task families, like in the previous system, are still supported in most tasks.

Task Rewards
Tasks can now reward:
Items
Experience
Gold

Some tasks will still be repeatable, but most are now one-time quests designed to push players toward new areas, new monster types, and more meaningful interactions.

A More Immersive World
This system aims to make tasking feel like part of the world’s story rather than a background grind. NPCs now play a larger role in guiding players through different regions and encouraging varied hunting paths.

Ongoing Additions
More task quests will be added regularly, and all future changes or new tasks will be included in the changelog.
