Hi! The May long weekend is approaching and the biggest update on our server since Horizon 2!

See what we have prepared for you:

New Raid Bosses

Etis van Etina, leader of the ancient cult Embryo, has made good on his threats and launched an attack on the continent!

The seal priestesses he sent - Maliss and Isadora - gather new followers among the children and servants of the goddess of destruction. Will they be able to take control of the legendary dragons and demons?

Dabos and Nigel - Embryo's enforcers have been ordered to exterminate anyone who may threaten their sinister plans. From now on, RB will hunt you! Beware, the world of Lineage 2 has never been more dangerous!

New weapons and unique Agathions

Queen Freya was defeated and lost her crown along with her head. Who will sit on the ice throne now? Acquire the ice queen's staff and become the new most powerful water mage on the continent!

Create an even more unique character with the new Agathions you can grab for Dawn's Bracelet!

Event and new quests

Embryo's actions cannot remain unanswered. The Clan Council launches an investigation to track down and destroy enemy agents!

By supporting our community, earn Council recognition and access to elite pets that will help you investigate and gain territorial bonuses!

Unforgettable atmosphere

Have fun role-playing in the most realistic marketplace the world of Lineage 2 has ever seen - now with even more live NPCs, or light a campfire away from the bustle of the town!

Improved gameplay comfort

You'll love the new buff trading system from your first purchase! Mark the buffs you need and buy with one click - the seller will remember your choices.

No more chaos at the olympiad! You will know your opponent in a duel from the first second, your shots will not be deactivated every fight, and improved security will not allow parallel fights!

Now you can say goodbye to tiring game elements and fully enjoy the fun!

See you in the game!
