The dungeon extraction genre has undeniably taken root in the hearts of both players and developers, as evidenced by Albion Online's latest major update, Abyssal Depths, set to launch on June 30th. This update introduces the thrilling Abyssal Dungeons, an extraction dungeon crawler mode accessible through the Antiquarian's Den. In teams of two or three, players will dive into a PvP-centric adventure, navigating through areas like Caerleon, battling monsters, and racing against time to escape before the dungeon collapses.
This format might ring a bell, as it closely resembles the gameplay pioneered by Dark and Darker, which has since become a popular trend. However, the Abyssal Dungeons are just one facet of a comprehensive update aimed at enhancing the overall experience for both new and veteran players of Albion Online.
For newcomers, the post-tutorial journey is now seamlessly integrated into the existing Albion Journal. This feature is designed to guide new players through the initial stages, helping them find their footing in the vast world of Albion Online.
Beyond the dungeons, Abyssal Depths brings a slew of miscellaneous improvements, including UI updates, enhanced interactive tutorial features, and other quality-of-life tweaks. To stay informed about these exciting changes, be sure to watch the series of developer talks, with the first one linked above, covering all the new additions coming on June 30th.
