PxEngine Is Live!
After more than six months of development, PxEngine is now live across Fantasy Online 2.
This is much more than a visual update. PxEngine replaces the old client with a new engine built for faster loading, smoother performance, lower memory and bandwidth usage, responsive desktop and mobile layouts, improved input, complete interface localization, and a stronger foundation for everything we want to add next.
Launching the engine does not mean the work is finished. I’m fixing bugs, improving performance, and polishing the experience almost every day. Please use the in-game bug reporter to report any bugs, issues, annoyances, or suggestions you encounter.

Noob Island 2.0
With the launch of PxEngine on all platforms we made a few changes to the intro quests on Noob Island! The goal was to make these easier to follow and get the player ready to rumble come Crab Coast. You may see some NPCs that have moved, have new dialogue or new quests all together!
Surfside Shores, Sunken Sands and Wave of Waste
Summer time rolls on! The Summer event areas and quests will be sticking around another two weeks until August 28th! At that time they'll ride off into the sunset until next year!
Gemster's Shop Update
The Gemster has a new box and item for purchase! Head over to his shop to get the Octo-Hydra Box and the "Buffs Plz" Sign.
Gemster's Vending Machine
The Gemster will be wheeling his Vending Machine back to storage on August 28th! Make sure to get any items you're missing before they're gone.
