This time the theme of our works is magic and enchanted objects! 🎩✨ We have gone to great lengths to create a whole new dimension for you to explore in our Miniland game!
A new enchanted dimension ✨
This month, much of our work has been focused on creating a new area to explore, mine, harvest new plants and fight scary monsters! The passage to it leads you through a portal that you will be able to create 👏
We have made every effort to refine the new dimension as much as possible! Large magic mushrooms, magic trees, grass, water to give the right atmosphere, lava - all this will create a unique environment that we hope will delight you 🤩.
New objects in-game 🪑
That's not all ❗ The game will also feature brand new materials for building furniture, walls or floors - which will allow you to build even better buildings.
Are you curious if something else will appear? Of course 🙂 To craft some magical objects, you will also need an enchanted crafting table! To create them, you will need the right magical objects and raw materials - including the new "Obsidian", which is a rather fragile but extremely powerful raw material - and as a result, you will get a unique opportunity to create other magical objects too! Among them, a soup of magic mushrooms that gives extra life 🍄.
All-new monsters 👹
The new monsters appearing in the Enchanted Dimension will be as interesting as the location itself 😎 They will be :
👻 Ghost - only appears when it is close to the player, it is impossible to attack it from afar. You are left with a skirmish in a direct confrontation 👊
🧱 Mimic - Hides in the walls in the enchanted dimension, reveals itself when you hit it.
🔫 Cultist - Shoots several projectiles at once, charging his projectiles continuously. In an ongoing battle he will be able to fire fewer projectiles, but after a long pause he will be able to attack the player with more of them, creating a salvo!
Keep your eyes peeled and be careful ⛑️
Other enhancements and novelties added to the game:
- A new weapon : spear that has a large damage and the ability to throw it
- Better floor system. Floor now adjusts to the walls built instead of sticking outside the houses.
Thank you for being with us, and we invite you to join our Discord! There you will be able to talk with both the game's creator and other players interested in similar game topics 👇
We also encourage you to add the Miniland game to your Wishlist. That way you won't miss any information about our game! 👌
All of Atreia is in an uproar as a rumour spreads like wildfire – from the bustling taverns in the cities to secluded spots in the countryside, all you hear is: AION Classic is coming!
A Message From the Project Manager
First things first, as the Project Manager of AION Classic has a message for you:
‘Dear players, we are pleased to announce today that the highly anticipated release of AION Classic is coming to Europe in early 2023. Working with our partners at NCSoft is crucial to ensure the European version builds on the experiences of other regions, while streamlining technical aspects that will ensure a fun and smooth gaming experience for you.’
What Awaits You?
AION Classic is a permanent server that offers to all MMORPG fans a fresh start in the world of Atreia, identical to the original version but with some additional balancing and quality-of-life improvements. The European Classic server will launch with the 2.0 update.
New and old players will be able to explore the vast and unique realm of Atreia, discover iconic dungeons and take part in the conflict between Elyos and Asmodians.
What Does AION Classic Offer?
You can look forward to PvE content up to level 55, various maps and instances such as Dark Poeta, Baranath Dredgion and more with AION Classic!
Throw yourself into battle and experience numerous PvP modes such as Rifts, Fortress Battles and much more. Take to the skies again and get ready for aerial battles in the Abyss! You can also choose different professions to craft equipment and consumables.
Who Can Play AION Classic?
The game will be accessible to everyone for free. Additionally, Siel’s Energy and Daeva Pass features will also be available, allowing you to continue using the content without restrictions and grab additional rewards.
After the release, we will of course provide regular updates in a similar way to the already-released version in Korea. Please note that we plan to adapt the rate of these updates to the needs of the EU community. This means the updates may not exactly follow the same time frame as in Korea.
Exclusive content such as the new dungeons or the recently added new classes will also be introduced in Europe with future updates for AION Classic.
When Does AION Classic Come to Europe?
In early 2023, you will have the chance to relive the bitter cold of Morheim and the arid lands of Eltnen, as well as the vanilla feeling of thrilling PvP battles between Asmodians and Elyos!
As many of you already know, a lot of our work – along with the great support from NCSoft – is focused on building a working platform that can host the classic AION client.
We will keep you updated on all the milestones until then. The first step will be the migration of the AION live version to the new platform, for which we will continue to release content updates.
Of course, we will provide you with all the details and information as soon as we get closer to the migration, and then also as soon as we can give a more precise date for the release.
What Happens Next?
We know you have lots of questions. That’s why we are preparing our own live stream before Christmas to look at the topic in more detail. Many other questions will soon be answered in our FAQ.
Visit us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and our website for the latest AION Classic news. Also join our AION Classic Discord channel: https://discord.gg/5v47qtgn
We’re already looking forward to playing with you on our AION Classic server – it’s going to be amazing!
Welcome to the first War Thunder Steam Community Spotlight!
The War Thunder Steam Community Management team has been looking at the community hub for War Thunder and have spotted some really creative posts from our community. We have picked our favourites and thought that we'd share them with the rest of the Steam community. So, do you love amazing, community produced, content? Then take a look below!
Let's begin!
Fighting on the virtual battlegrounds of War Thunder is really fun. However, have you ever wanted one of your favourite vehicles created in such a way so that you can proudly show it off on your table whilst you play the game? That's exactly what the player "Yar man" has done! They have created an amazing looking 1/35 sized T-90SM model. Proudly show that off, Yar Man! Fantastic work.
Tank models on your desk are awesome and bring out huge amounts of creativity, but what about creating your very own virtual 3D model from scratch? That's what the player "_Barking_Dogo_" has done! An outstanding recreated model M18, specifically the "Black Cat", with the finished result shown in the game camouflage. This is all shown in the GIF below, from start to finish. We love this!
What's better than re-creating the exact model from in-game? That's exactly what the player "F-DOLL FAL" has done! They've recreated the MiG-21 SPS-K from the German tech tree in the size of 1/72, even with the same identification number. That's awesome work!
Incredible, is what this is! The player FULZY has smartly created the new to the game aircraft BV 155 B-1! This hybrid of screenshot/artwork looks great and we really like it. Nice work!
One of the best twin-engine aircraft of the second world war, the Mosquito, is featured here in a artistic style and we really like this. Well done, ༺¸𝖣𝖺𝗂𝖼𝗁𝗂 𝖴𝖼𝗁𝗂𝗁𝖺¸༻!
It's not Halloween just yet, but this screenshot certainly gives off Halloween vibes! This awesome and unique looking screenshot by the player "bert" certainty makes us feel spooked. Nice work, bert!
The Chi-Ha and Chi-Nu are great tanks for all players to enjoy. We know that the player 449138878 loves them! They drew this beautiful piece of art, which looks wonderful. Nice work!
With the release of our Danger Zone update, we introduced the F-14A! Well, this has probably inspired the player "Aiden Kim" to sketch this amazing looking art of Tom Cruise - Top Gun Maverick! It looks really nice, well done, Aiden Kim!
Many don't know that the WW2 British Comet was also used by the Finnish forces after the war! This amazing Photoshop drawing by Kamerad_Fritz really shows the harsh winter environment and is really well drawn. Nice!
Last but not least, an amazing pencil drawing of the D.520 and BF-109E in a vertical dogfight. This creativity really does make our imagination curious - who won the dogfight, who were the pilots? Nice work on this drawing!
The wonderful work created by our community that we have shared has been posted to the War Thunder Community Hub - make sure you check it out and even share your own creations. We look forward to seeing you next time!

CONTENT CREATORS
Content creators, please fill out the following form and receive Go(a)lden Tickets to giveaway to your community during the event:
All HUD’s are invisible in character view for a true photo/screenshot mode (for Kai’s awesome video thumbnails 😉)
Building
All base build parts can now clip into the terrain which allows much more flexibility along with the easier placement of the foundations.
Foundations still need to be placed above the terrain with the ground check being done from the centre of the floor.
If too much of the foundation is blocked it will still not allow you to place it.
Other
Leather tanning time reduced a bit
Revenge Hunters are now named when you loot them so you know if it was a regular attack or a revenge attack
HUD QOL – you can now escape the farm planter HUD after watering and harvesting by pressing tab and bringing up the inventory. This allows a much better flow when farming and changing between the inventory HUD and planter HUD
We need your help! We are not looking for professional translators.
If you want to help, understand English, and are a native speaker of any languages already added to the game - please write to us at support@wildterra2.com (Please indicate the language in the subject line.)
With Early Access now less than a month away, this is likely the last new content update as I aim to get a solid release candidate ready in the next two weeks.

- New Character: "Panda". It's unlocked by default and does not require DLC.
- Characters: "Lizard" unlocked by default.
- Characters: One of the hands attack animation of "Lizard" has been changed with other.
- AI: It's added a chance AI Bot to attack another AI Bot. But keep in mind that they mainly only attack players and play as a team against you! The difficulty of the game depends on the number of AI "Opponents". All of them will only attack you, most of the time! If it is too difficult, reduce the number of opponents. More defeated bots give more points after each round.
