Hello Agartha Community! We are excited to announce the loads of updates we have regarding gameplay/QOL changes. This will be patched into the game Dec. 8th.
There will be a full Wipe when we drop this patch. As the game is early access, we do wipes to preserve the health of the game and prevent data corruption. If you haven’t been on in a while, here is your opportunity to get back on because we have changed a lot of things. To reward you for your dedication and patience, if you log in the weekend of Dec. 8th-11th, you will receive a lootbox to help you get a head start. Make sure to create your character during this period to get the bonus!
We’re working hard on the new maps we have been teasing, and unfortunately it’s looking like we’ll be delaying the release of our new maps until January. We would like to spend more time preparing for the new content and thank you for being patient. We hope this update shows our efforts and commitment to taking this game out of early access, into the spotlight that it deserves.
Thank you to all of our supporters. Expect really cool things from us in the future, and please feel free to continue giving us feedback on our discord. Our team is always reading all of your comments and we want to watch you play.
