Also included in the update are various fixes and QOL improvements, as well as improved PC mouse controls and traditional Chinese localisation.

Guys, “Back” was officially released about an hour ago, mainly due to the fact that in the course of connoisseur advance testing, due to circumstances unknown to me and beyond my control, the game resources were cracked and appeared on some websites, and it intensified.
In fact, this is a common situation for many of the big games I have played, but I did not expect this situation for small games like mine.
Therefore, in order to ensure fairness, the "Back"had to be released early.
For me, even many large companies can not solve the problem of cracking, I can not solve, only everyone can do things according to conscience.
What we can also promise is that, in order to ensure the interests of all players who normally buy this game, we will also hold a free cdkey event after the launch of the third product. Watch for official announcements then.
Finally, for the people who cracked the game, maybe for you, it is only an indescribable small work in the thousands of games you cracked, but your behavior is bound to affect the survival of at least two developers and their families, your heart will not hurt? I believe in cause and effect! Always believe!)

Hello, gamers and supporters!

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news about the future of our game. As part of our ongoing development plan, we are committed to continuously updating and enhancing the game experience. The version you see now is just the beginning of an incredible journey, and we have a lot in store for you!

Early-Stage Project and Upcoming Features
Our team is hard at work, and we are planning to roll out several supporting websites to enrich your experience as the game progresses. Here’s a sneak peek at what you can expect:

Blockchain Integration:
We are planning to deploy game assets on the Solana blockchain before the official game launch. To build hype and excitement, we will offer these assets through pre-sales on our social media channels and community groups. This initiative will help us generate enthusiasm and allow you to be part of our journey from the very start!
Inventory Service Launch:
Once the game is released, our top priority will be the launch of the inventory service. Players will have access to a Steam inventory system, both in-game and out of it. These inventories will be the foundation of our NFT project, allowing you to freely trade assets on the Steam marketplace.
Web 3.0 Development:
In the following phases, we will focus on creating cutting-edge Web 3.0 front-end applications. This will include a dedicated on-chain trading platform for Cyber Mokugyo, enabling seamless interaction between player inventories and on-chain assets. Additionally, we will offer limited edition NFTs for sale on this platform, which can only be purchased using our exclusive tokens.
Building a Complete Ecosystem:
Our ultimate goal is to create a rich ecosystem within the game. We plan to enhance gameplay, introduce management mechanics, and continue providing regular updates to keep the experience fresh and exciting for all players.
Join Us on This Journey!
We are grateful for your support and enthusiasm as we embark on this journey together. Your feedback and engagement are invaluable to us, and we can’t wait to share more updates with you in the coming weeks and months. Stay tuned for more announcements, and let’s make this an unforgettable adventure together!

Thank you for being part of our community!

Happy gaming!

All your children and untitled lords will become Lesser Lords, whose fate you can decide while they continue to live in your province. You can make them knights and free lords, send them to the Church, arrange marriages (for the girls), or grant them titles. This way, you can plan the upbringing of your children and retire the elders (who can retain roles as mentors).

• Lesser lords.
  
• A mad lord can now be stripped of their title.

• Burned villages will be restored after settling an abandoned city.

With the dust having settled on another intense Guild Season, it’s time to take a look at the fierce battles that took place and the ever-shifting landscape of Albion’s alliances. With the first full season on Albion Europe, and old rivalries reigniting elsewhere, the struggle for power has never been more thrilling. Read on to find out how Sex and Flex, PLAC, and IFures, secured their victories:

A brand new server means new guilds, alliances, and coalitions going to war to control the Outlands and make their mark on the world of Albion.

In the beginning, we saw battles raging with fighters in modest T4 gear, riding their Mules into battle like true warriors. But it didn't take long for the players to get stronger and the gear bumped up to T8 – then those poor Mules were no more.

Soon, the first coalition war broke out on the European server. Sex and Flex, in an attempt to push for the first season victory, formed a massive coalition to support their efforts. The winners of the Albion Europe Beta Season, Escalation, led the fightback, with their eyes also on the title. Massive battles took place day after day across multiple time slots. Escalation really had their work cut out for them, as the Sex and Flex coalition was also extremely large. They were not alone, however, as Woof Woof was there to support them, and PLAC was also summoned from the Asia server to lend a hand.



But it wasn't to be. With internal drama, and Del having no time to lead, Escalation was unable to sustain the charge, and within a month or so of the Albion Europe launch, they effectively folded. This allowed Sex and Flex to push on unchallenged and take the server’s first ever season title.

Smurfing Monkeys has opened the season with a strong showing, but couldn't hold off the forces of Vodafone, with BOBER also wreaking havoc on them in the final month. All of this damage caused the guild to close its doors after one last run at second place.

APE was able to place third, resulting in all three members of the same coalition taking the top three spots.

Top 10 Guilds:

1. Sex and Flex (970,117 points)
2. Smurfing Monkeys (734,820 points)
3. APE (536,057 points)
4. Pro Bono (474,950 points)
5. POLSKA GUROM (463,401 points)
6. Quackers (403,712 points)
7. AURORA (399,055 points)
8. Vodafone (395,372 points)
9. CONTROL (388,435 points)
10. Escalation (382,503 points)

Season 23 started out the same as Season 22, with PLAC claiming that they were going to push for the season title. And with a strong coalition still in place, there wasn't much standing in their way.

However, a handful of guilds tried to stop them. Radiant and their coalition attempted to fight back, but after a few short weeks, with well over a thousand players involved at once, it was too much for them to handle. Henrie, the guild master of Radiant, called it a day to refocus their efforts on the European server.



Weeks passed, and PLAC managed to hold onto the #1 spot for the entire season, taking home their third Crystal Gem with astounding back-to-back season victories, making them only the second guild in Albion’s history to do so.

In spite of that, shot caller Fuckcall parted ways with PLAC at the end of the season and announced that they will attempt to lead Peony Flower to victory in Season 24. But it won't be plain sailing, as the Arthur's Rest coalition has formed and is already pushing back against PLAC's major holdings in territory ownership and Hideout placement. Season 24 is already shaping up to be a very interesting one for Albion Asia! 

Top 10 Guilds:

1. PLAC (865,973 points)
2. Kestrel (795,387 points)
3. V U A (753,591 points)
4. Agila (691,827 points)
5. KORAWA (506,869 points)
6. TUK TUK (478,948 points)
7. Minerva-X (324,514 points)
8. I The Flying Dutchman I (320,096 points)
9. Candy Kingdom (317,297 points)
10. Arirang (297,031 points)

Season 23's Outland wars picked up where Season 22 left off, with little change to the overall landscape. The IFures coalition held strong, but the BOBER alliance wasn't going down without a fight, and battles raged throughout the season as IFures sought their second season victory.

The Lonely Men looked extremely healthy throughout, and held onto second place with the help of FAX. But one thing was missing: the POE alliance withdrew after some drama unfolded, and a once mighty force in the Outlands slowly faded from the war. At the end of the season, the oldest Hideout in Albion was destroyed for the first time. Owned by the leader of the POE Alliance, Crimson Imperium Reborn, its fall marks the end of a legacy seen only once in the world of Albion Online…



Coming back to the race for the crown, it looked like it would be an easy second place for The Lonely Men, but with the final Invasion Day of the season and all territories' payouts happening, a plan was hatched by the IFures coalition to have PIVAS, one of their members, take second place.

And so, on the final day, battles took place. But it wasn't just about fighting, and Silver payments were made to guilds all over the Outlands so that PIVAS could get their territories for their stored Season Points. With this plan in place, PIVAS was able to grab a total of 60 territories and, gaining over 200,000 Season Points, leapfrog over The Lonely Men to take second place.

Top 10 Guilds:

1. IFures (907,399 points)
2. PIVAS (900,298 points)
3. The Lonely Men (799,138 points)
4. I Guess What I (500,362 points)
5. Outlimits (453,720 points)
6. Pressur3 (420,880 points)
7. Fax (412,510 points)
8. Mono Con Navaja (356,959 points)
9. D R U Y D S (310,002 points)
10. I M O R T A I S (305,877 points)

Season 23 will be remembered for its intense battles and guild-breaking drama across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. With Season 24 underway, new challenges and alliances are forming, setting the stage for another thrilling chapter in Albion’s history. Adventurers are invited to check the full season schedule on our forum post and prepare for the exciting battles ahead!
