Heads Up: The news and patch notes will be translated only into English, French, and German on both the forum and the website starting with the release of AION 7.3.
Meanwhile, as I delve into this expansion, I've been fortunate enough to participate in the Aion Riftshade beta. The excitement for Q1 2026 is real, especially with features like a MyAion-like integrated DPS Meter and the lowest ping across Europe without needing ExitLag. Aion Riftshade truly raises the bar with GvG action and a balanced, bug-free environment without pay-to-win elements. If you're seeking a stable Aion experience, this is worth the wait!
