Remember to join our Discord for the latest updates. This update also applies to the demo version, which will be released soon.


We have removed a Primary Weapon and added the brutal Thorn-Assault as a replacement.

We hope you'll be pleased with this new Thorn-Assault.

New shooting Training

We have added another shooting range to the Main Base called Long Range. The idea behind this training is to practice shooting at longer distances. Whether it's Sniper rifles or other weapons, this training provides valuable insight into mastering long-range shots.

Long Range is a dedicated training course designed to refine your skills with sniper rifles and rifles. This course offers the opportunity to practice your abilities, mastering the art of hitting targets at longer distances, both uphill and downhill for you. Practicing long-range shots and perfecting your precision and timing is a valuable skill to master in order to become the perfect marksman at longer distances.


We have upgraded the game's AMD FSR 2.2 to AMD's latest technology, FSR 3.0, which offers you an entirely new perspective and graphics quality in the game. Check AMD's website if you want to know more about what AMD FSR 3.0 entails.

So again, it's been a while since I've posted anything directly related to NIRAVASI these past months. Life's been all kinds of busy for me (buying a house, getting married, etc.) and I haven't had as much time to work on the game like I did before. But I'm happy to announce that at long last, I'm finally nearing the stage of releasing Patch 1.1. for NIRAVASI out to the public.

Patch 1.1. is a doozy of an update and includes a whole variety of changes/updates to the game, including a completely revamped Perfection Complex, updates to all the other levels, new songs, and even a brand new ending! Crazy, right? But here's the catch. Patch 1.1. is a BIG update, and may be prone to a lot of bugs. So what better way to test the game than to showcase it to the entire world? (which definitely can't go wrong, am I right?)


I'll be playtesting Patch 1.1. live on my Twitch.tv account, which you find here on Thursday, March 21 at 6 pm (GMT - UK time). In this livestream, I'll be playing the game from start-to-finish, and attempting to uncover all of the endings of the game. During this time, I'll also be showcasing the new changes in Patch 1.1., as well as some general facts and inspirations behind some of the game's more visually pleasing areas!


I've set myself an internal deadline to try and get Patch 1.1. released just before the beginning of April, but I'd like to see how far we get. I've spent a long time working on this beast and I want to make sure it comes out as awesome as possible for everyone here!

If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment below either on this page, my Steam profile, the discussions page, and even my online handles. Until then, I hope you all have a great one and I'll see you all next Thursday!

Kind regards,
Angus (Sangos)

Hello, everyone! We’re releasing Update 0.4.1 today to address graphic changes.

• Regions map updated
  
• Water graphics changed
  
• World terrain changed
  
• Countries' capital region info added on the map

In this update, we changed the region map. The regions of most of the countries are changed.

Terrain and the Ocean graphic changed. We added a realistic Ocean graphic. And also changed the Terrain.

That’s right! The long-awaited Battleon Museum is opening up to everyone in this week's historic release of Adventure Quest 3D. Head on over to the Scholar District of Battleon and lend a hand to the chronomancer-turned-curator Danicka Rose by helping her fill out the museum’s displays with creatures big and small that you’ve encountered on your many adventures through Lore.

While Danicka has grand ambitions to fill the museum with anything and everything of notability that Lore has to offer, she currently has… nothing. That’s where you come in! Talk to Danicka in the museum lobby to begin an introduction quest line that will get you started and have you collecting “Moments” which will be required to create your very first display.

You might be asking, “What’s a Moment?” Well, I’m so glad you asked. Moments are a new type of item being added to Adventure Quest 3D this week. They drop off enemies that you’re able to make museum displays of. What’s unique about Moment in comparison to previous item types currently in the game is that Moments are automatically looted and added to the token section of your inventory and don’t take up any bag space. Once you’ve collected enough Moments, don’t forget to head back to the Museum to create a display! (And earn a nice chunk of XP… and maybe a title for completing an exhibit!)

A New Layer of Gameplay

The Museum is intended as our take on a bestiary or monster log and as such will be updated over time to cover monsters across the whole game world. With that in mind, it’s important to state you probably shouldn’t expect to knock this out in a weekend! The museum is meant to be played at your own pace and is more of a complementary layer over existing gameplay.

Are you in search of a new fashion piece? The pinnacle of your rare item collection? Just want a cool-looking blue cape CLOAK? Well, if that’s the case head on over to Battleon, and standing just outside Yulgar’s Inn you’ll find Clarion Dawnforger, speak to him and craft your very own best-in-slot cosmetic back item today! (At just the low cost of 5 Blue Capes, what a steal!)

Ready yourselves, fellow heroes of Lore! For the last few weeks, I’ve been streaming on the Artix Entertainment Twitch Channel. Can you imagine it? Me and my trusty feline sidekicks adventuring and even sometimes questing across the third dimension every weekday at 6 PM EDT. Whether you are a veteran guardian of Lore or a plucky young squire just learning how to whirlwind pull up a seat and join in on the adventure!


Last week we released the 2024 Dage Collection featuring a personal favorite design of mine, the Legion Necromancer. That collection is still available for purchase so if you like Dage’s Legion swing on by to Battleon and talk to the Legion Necromancer to have a look at the collection!

The Wings of the Astral Veil are now available for a limited time only. To get these amazing items, you need to purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages. For those that get one of the Guardian upgrade packages, you will also get the Spectral Wings of the Astral Veil, a ghostly variant that is only for Guardians!

Calling all Undead Legion minions: join us in celebrating Dage the Evil's birthday in our latest Screenshot Contest. Venture into the spookiest realms of Lore, capture the essence of the Dark Lord, and have a chance to win a prize... and maybe a shoutout from Dage himself! The contest ends this Sunday night. Read the full contest details here!

Battle on!
Clarion, Yergen, Oishii, Blaze, Broomtool, and the AdventureQuest 3D Team

P.S. HeroMart has a poster of Dage on his Throne available now. Skillfully crafted by Diozz, and ready to dominate your wall >:D
