The legendary band, Alice in Chains, is playing a virtual battle concert in AdventureQuest 3D Battle monsters, score loot, and hear their classic hit “Check My Brain” as well as songs from their recent album, 'Rainier Fog'.
Special Event Happening right now!
WHO: You, your friends, and ALICE IN CHAINS! WHAT: Free virtual battle concert WHEN: Non-stop shows from Nov 7th - 30th, 2019! WHERE: AdventureQuest 3D (& AdventureQuest Worlds too)
Limited Time Event!
Continuous shows until November 30th, 2019. Experience it before it's gone.
We raised the bar for this second Battle Concert with all new Stage FX... to do "transformative things" that would not be possible in a real-life concert.
We turned Alice in Chains into Video Game Characters!
ALICE IN CHAINS (vocalist/guitarist Jerry Cantrell, drummer Sean Kinney, bassist Mike Inez and vocalist/guitarist William DuVall) have garnered multiple Grammy nominations, sold more than 30 million albums worldwide, and amassed a diehard international fanbase whose members number in the millions. They just completed a summer co-headline tour with Korn supporting their recently released album, Rainier Fog. ALICE IN CHAINS remains one of the most successful and influential American rock bands of all time.
Rainier Fog
ALICE IN CHAINS’ sixth studio album, Rainier Fog, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s charts for Top Rock Albums, Alternative Albums, and Hard Rock Albums Billboard Charts and also received a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album Rainier Fog is available for purchase on ALICE IN CHAINS' website
Monster Filled Multiplayer Mosh Pit
Grab your friends and jump in an unforgettably brutal, monster filled virtual-rock-concert.
How to get to the Battle Concert?
The ALICE IN CHAINS Battle Concert is happening now! It's pretty hard to miss it in game! Just hop on AdventureQuest 3D and hit the button in the the news, or talk to an Alice in Chains promoter in town, or use the travel crystal. New players should do the short tutorial first.
Stage Monster
The stage monster is the Ghost of Unsung Songs. During the concert she summons monsters into the pit and creates havoc. Defeat her to receive a giant treasure chest.
Non-Stop Shows! ...but for 3 Weeks Only.
The ALICE IN CHAINS Battle Concert is a limited time event. The show itself will repeat non-stop with a brief intermission in between each set. Which means you can experience it with players from all over the world on your schedule. But you only have three weeks to do so. Once it's gone... it's gone forever.
VIP Collection
The battle concert and quests are free for everyone to enjoy. If you want to show your support for the band and games, you can buy the ALICE IN CHAINS item collection in game which includes exclusive band armors, musical items, pets, weapons, travel forms, rare badges, and a backstage pass.
Have a backstage pass?
Head there and take a virtual selfie with the virtual band. The little green Sneevil is Bryce Platinum. He has a ton of bonus quests.
The One You Know.... (or at least, the tips you should know)
Here are a few tips for the event. There are quests that everyone can get in the lobby. Click/tap on non-player characters to talk to them. Be sure to loot the items that monsters drop during the concert. You can click on the bags that the monsters drop (PC/Mac users can hit "F") to loot. Also, there is a tiny chance each show that THRASH, the original stage monster might appear part way through the show.
Play the event on STEAM with your friends.... even if they are on other devices!
Because AdventureQuest 3D is a True Cross-Platform game, you can play this event with your friends no matter what device they login from. We all play on the same world. Just have them grab the game and join you.
Alice in Chains Event Happening now!

See you in the pit... Battle on! Artix
P.S. We have new concert quests for ALL PLAYERS coming Friday! (11/8/2019)
Zorbak has arrived just in time for Mogloween and converted a local graveyard into a Raveyard.
It's not entirely clear if he was trying to resurrect the skeletons to make an undead army and accidentally made them into a dance party or if the dancing has some ebil intent, but either way... the result is a bone-rattling dance party!
Sound Track "Ticklish Zorbo"
We resurrected one of Warlic's masterpieces for the skeleton rave party... the track is called "Ticklish Zorbo"-- Zorbak's official dance party theme song.
Talk to Zorbak... he's the blue Moglin in the Raveyard. He'll tell you have to craft two new Mogloween themed items...
The Gourdite Scytheblade
Gourdites are undead pumpkin spirits that seek to possess a body and feast on the candy collected by living creatures on Mogloween night.
The Batwing Scytheblade
"I thought it was awesome until I saw the little bat particles... then I thought it was WICKEDLY AWESOME!" - No one actually said this, I just made the quote up on the spot. But if you say it, I can change this to say you were the one who said it. #TimeTravel #Paradox
Quest for the RaveStones
Complete Zorbak's repeatable quest to collect Ravestones. OH! Keep an eye out for the...
Tree-J
The Tree-Jay monster drops some less common crafting materials. Real talk time... I wanted to go with "Tree-J Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince of Darkness" but I got veto'd on account of it being too long, and no one knowing what the heck that joke was even referring to O_o. Unless you do. In which case, just go ahead and give yourself 9,000 Will Smith points.
Turns out... The Dead CAN Dance
These are SEASONAL RARES so if you don't manage to craft them this year, you'll have another chance... next year.
Lucky you. You're are officially invited to be a test subject in his very 1st experiment.
We don't count the others because the Death ray didn't leave any evidence. Also, makes you feel 23.5% more special.
Bring more expendable test subjects. Wait, what do you guys call them again? Oh, yeah. Friends! Bring more friends!
It's OK, it's for SCIENCE!
Drop on by!
Create your own mad scientist lab coat, goggles... and back claw-arm-grabby-thingy!
You'll need to take a short physical. Need to make sure you're in tip top shape before we death ray, buzz saw, and etc, etc, you in the experiment.
The Doc's assistant, Mort, will be there too...
Our mad science lab is conveniently located the spooky town of Mystcroft...
While in town, craft new Mogloween Royalty gear from the Haunted Mansion and ghost filled streets.
Everyone's losing their heads over the... New 2019 Mogloween Collection!
Replace your head with a flaming pumpkin or a flaming... flame?
The axe, flame sword, and Headless Horseman armor is wicked.
Ride through the streets on your horse as a cursed Headless Horseman using the new travel form...
You can get these items in game individually...
Or get the entire 2019 Moglin Collection which includes...
All the items Huge discount Rare badge & title Permanent access to ALL of these items without eating up any bag space.
Check out the new Emotes! They're already on your character. We injected them in you while you were sleeping.
Oh, and that UwU Pumpkin head is there (somewhere) for you to find too.
We also snuck in a rotting version and a spooky Vampragron pet for Guardians.
See you in the experiment!
It's easy to get there. Go to the home town of Battleon and talk to the spooky Mogloween representative near the Portal. They'll send you right here.
Happy Mogloween!
Log into AdventureQuest 3D's new Mogloween event and come on down to Dr. Trollenstein's place. We're gonna throw some science at the wall and see... what's still breathing.
The October fog opens a pathway to the haunted town of Mystcroft!
As per tradition, the previous Mogloween areas return this week, and will be expanded next week with an all new Mogloween adventure. Have you seen the mad scientist concept art yet?
The town of Mystcroft
Ghosts, goblins, skeletons, pumpkinlords, and a haunted manor await you.
3D SoundFX in the Mogloween Maps
We updated the Mogloween maps with the new 3D sound FX. I would say they sound much more lively. But since most everything in there is undead, I will remind less seasoned heroes to bring an extra set of underpants.
People are losing their heads over the upcoming collection
Dage's concept art for the headless horseman.
The new 2019 Mogloween Adventure is coming next!
Each year we expand Mogloween with a new adventure. This year's villain is "Mad Scientist." Here is Dage's latest concept art.
Set your compass to the Mysterious Islands and chart a course for Lolosia! The Legendary Pirate, Captain Rhubarb, is waiting to escort you to the hidden Ninja island called Yokai Isle where he has a special quest for you. This chapter of the story will only unlock for those who have completed the first chapter of the Lolosia storyline, so don't get undressed from your Talk Like a Pirate Day gear yet!
Do the quests in the Pirate Town of Lolosia to get to the island!
Explore and earn the ninja's trust.
Craft Ninja weapontry at the shop...
Hear our new 3D SoundFX system... and beautiful new music by Jongaar.
Get some food
See you on Yokai Isle....
The first of a 2 part event... in the next installment, we explore underwater, encounter an all new boss, and... wait, are you a Pirate or a Ninja?
Rising star artist Darkon re-imagined Mage Lord armor into 3D. Log in and head to Warlic's magic shop in town to quest for the pieces. https://aq3d.com/news/mage_lord/
*Thumbs up* Good job Darkon!
As you probably already know, next week we are boarding a pirate ship and heading to the ninja-filled Yokai Isle. Hope you are as excited as we are... it is the first area to use our new 3D sound system.
Do you like Sushi?
Dage made 3D food. Now we're all hungry. Then I made you a post about sushi... mostly about sushi. Read the post
"Talon licking good!"
A new version of AdventureQuest 3D was just released with a bunch of fixes & improvements-- just in time, before we set sail to Yokai Isle next week. Read more details
We've joked for years about our gag food pyramid above. But if you're feeling like you've been hit by a debuff and want to min/max your real-life character stats, here is a strategy guide:
1. Drink more water. Coffee & energy drinks won't work unless enough water is already in you. Water is like a buff for your buffs. 2. Eat more green stuff. Veggies, not the moldy thing you unearthed in the back of the fridge.
3. Stretch Google-fu some routines. The benefits of a 15 minute stretch with proper breathing can rival some gym workouts.
If you are not already doing them, these 3 little actions can buff any gamer's drive, focus, and reflexes. At least that is what Glisel tells me every time she reminds me to drink more water. >_> And if I have to do it... you should too! Join me O_O
Battle on! Artix & the AdventureQuest 3D Team
P.S. Yokai isle is the first place in the game to use our new 3D SoundFX system. So excited to see what you think of the ocean and river when you experience it next week.
Ahoy, matey! Lest ye be fergettin'... Gunpowder Mary be holdin' yer 2019 Talk Like a Pirate Day collection. Gear up before we hoist the sail and embark on a perilous journey to the ninja-infested Yokai Isle!
Attention campers! The war between the Pirate & Ninja camps has just started. Winner takes the flag! Also... will you survive our 1st ever survival horror dungeon?
Survival Horror Dungeon!
Our 1st survival horror dungeon is designed for 5 (VERY BRAVE) players. We're not going to tell you the rules or how to solve it. You're gonna have to figure that out on your *gulps* own.
Will you fight for the Ninja cabin or the Pirate cabin? (This is an important life choice.)
When you go to Camp Gonnagetcha, there will be a war meter at the top of the screen. Pick a team. Then battle monsters and complete quests to fill your team's water meter up first! Also, as your war meter fills up, new rewards will be unlocked. The first team to hit 100% wins. The winning team will earn honor, glory, and all player's will be able to pick up a rare back flag with their logo.
Real life Dage the Evil & Faith are getting married!
"I've always carried a blue flame for you."
It is with incredible heartfelt joy to write that long time Artix Entertainment team members Dage & Faith are getting married this week
"Brings a whole new meaning to 'Soul-Mates'"
We will be celebrating across our games with the release of wedding arrmors.
You can get the blue suit and wedding dress in AdventureQuest 3D now! You can find both wedding sets in the social district. The sets in AdventureQuest 3D were created by Dage before he left and matched their real-life ones closely. (Well, the suit does... he was not allowed to see her wedding dress of course!)
More news to follow!
As you read this, they are currently atop a mountain on the other side of the country preparing to take their vows of eternal undying love. Please wish them well on this new adventure.
