Greetings, Adventurers!
Cook up a Feast for the Future with your own sustainable masterpiece. The tantalizing flavor of the winning dish will linger across Aeternum as a new in-game recipe. What will you take from Aeternum to table?
Amazon Games and New World are taking part in the 2024 Playing for the Planet Green Game Jam. The Green Game Jam is an annual project organized by Playing for the Planet where gaming studios are challenged to implement 'green activations' into their games. This year’s event is about making small changes to the way we eat to drive demand for more sustainable food sources. With sustainability in mind, we are excited to give our players the opportunity to design a new in-game cooking dish. While resources in Aeternum may respawn infinitely, we must consider the environmental impact of our choices in the real world.
Join Feast for the Future to help bring more sustainable food options to Aeternum.
How to Join
Visit the official New World: Aeternum Discord and fill out a recipe design contest form with the following information to compete.
Gather 3 to 7 ingredients from our sustainable ingredient list.
Craft your original consumable and recipe name.
Season it with descriptive flavor text.
Once you’re satisfied with what might be the next trend in Aeternum cuisine, upload your form to the Discord by September 25. Extra ambitious Adventurers can submit up to 5 entries. No cooking is required, but don't let that stop you from sharing photos of your creations. Entries must be submitted through Discord to count.
Members of the Development and Community Team will choose 4 finalists before passing the plate to our community for a final Discord poll. Visit the #announcements channel on September 27 to vote for your favorite creation. The recipe with the most votes will be added to New World: Aeternum in a future update. Look forward to discovering which buffs the Development Team will include based on your recipe’s ingredients, name, and description. The full rules, terms, and conditions can be found here.
