Coming Next Week
We have been hard at work on the new intro "Death's Lair" which is aimed at improving early game retention for players not familiar with our previous games. It is short, burst play, which will also introduce AdventureQuest 3D's main villain. Also, next week is a Friday the 13th! As per tradition "You know who" is returning to breath heavily and murder us all as we battle for two new cabin teams as Camp Gonnagetcha re-opens.
P.S. It is also now possible to get Slifsgaard's beard from the World Tree.
Do you have dreams of having the most majestic beard EVAR?
[ Want Slifsgaard's AMAZING beard? Find the secret of his beard... it is hidden in a treasure chest somewhere in the main area of the World Tree. Then take the secret to the barber shop and make the bottom half of your face erupt with glorious folicular magnificence! Or, just go with the mustache. It is pretty good too.
Can you make it to the top of our new parkour map? If so, you will unlock the Dragon's Graveyard Parkour badge and and the title, "Trick Jumper". But beware, this is our craziest jump challenge yet with magically disappearing floors, deadly lasers, and and a multiple choice ending that will leave you cursing the name of this dungeon's creator... which was Yergen for the record.
Where is the new Parkour Map?
The entrance to this new parkour map can be found under a massive dragon's ribcage in the mushroom people infested part of the Dragon's Graveyard.
Goto friends blocked in the Parkour Map!?
WHAT!? O_O Nope. It is not possible to teleport to friends standing at the top of the Parkour map for... there is only one way to the top!
Coming soon, Death's Domain!
We are building a new intro for AdventureQuest 3D. We think you are going to love it TO DEATH. In addition to a moving 3D version of our Grim Reaper, we are also building the final version of the game's main villain.
Duel Wield & Cleave is AWESOME... change my mind.
I posted a video on AdventureQuest 3D's Facebook where I am dual wielding my axe the Blinding Light of Destiny. Rogues are getting the ability to dual wield, Warriors are getting cleave, and we are making a lot of fun changes to combat. Check out my design notes post for more.

So even though we updated literally every map, armor, item, and file in the entire game-- nothing should look different to you. If it does, let us know on the bug tracker!

We will be doing a Massively Overpowered live-stream with Zakaru, his sister, and also Vesper tonight to play through the release. My favorite part is hands down the "dragon ride". I really like seeing this level of creativity emerging in AdventureQuest 3D.

There are a lot of neat items that he helped design for you to battle for and craft. Battle on!
