Players of the American version of the free-to-play MMORPG Aion can look forward to the next big update very soon. On January 29, 2014, client version 4.5 will be deployed, bringing a lot of new features.
The highlight is undoubtedly the new class Ethertech, which is already being touted as the upcoming ‘community favorite’. To shorten the wait a bit, NCSoft has now released a new trailer for the Ethertech. The robot-like figure already comes across as quite impressive, a really nice preview of what awaits us soon in Atreia. Robocop says hello!
In addition to the Ethertech, the patch will also bring new instances, hairstyles, skills, items, weapons, and much more. However, it is still unclear when the European servers will enjoy the new content. However, there has been a first glimmer of hope in the Gameforge Forum that it may not take too long here either:
As I see the plans, 4.5 is being planned directly. So yes, small patches will probably no longer come. But… hopefully it won’t be long now :x. Near future. Man, I wish I could say more :/
