Major Updates
Aby wziąć udział w Kuźni Zimowej Runy, zdobyć nowe artefakty, pojechać na wierzchowcu w napadzie na posterunek, wykonać zadania z przygody i stawić czoła niektórym wyzwaniom, trzeba posiadać dodatek Powstania Wściekłej Ziemi.

New Season Pass
Season of the Guardian introduces a new Season Journey, new Activity Card, new Challenges, and new rewards including cosmetics and consumables.
Cooking and Other Trade Skill Changes
Look forward to ingredient updates, revamped Cooking progression, Legendary Fish recipe tweaks, the removal of split attribute food, and more. We’ll have additional details to share in a future Deep Dive article.
Upgraded Combat & Animation System
We’ve upgraded our old combat and animation system to improve performance in high traffic areas with many players like Wars and OPR. This new system will also make it easier to improve on our combat going forward. We’ve done our best to keep the feel of the game the same or better, but would definitely like to hear about things that don’t feel right after the upgrade.
Controller Support
Controller support is coming to New World! Select from two pre-set controller layouts to make your New World experience even more immersive. As part of optimizing the game to play well with controller, we've introduced the following new features and settings:
Aim Assist: Helps with aiming ranged attacks. (Controller only, AI only)
Target Friction: Slower reticle speed on roll over of a valid target (Controller only)
Enemy Target Lock: Allows you to lock the camera onto an enemy (AI only). Move the right stick to swap between multiple targets. (Works on both controller and mouse & keyboard with middle mouse button and mouse wheel up/down)
Freeform Movement: Allows running in all directions including towards the camera. Holding block or activating target lock will revert to normal strafe navigation. (Defaults to ON with controller, OFF with mouse & keyboard)
Use Camera Direction for Melee Attacks: If this is off it allows melee attacks and blocking in the direction of your input/character facing instead of your camera facing. (Defaults to OFF with controller, ON with mouse & keyboard)
Improved feature accessibility:
Radial wheel for quick access to features like player emotes, issuing commands and setting up camp.
Shift modifiers to allow for quick access to all combat abilities.
Improved UX navigation with gamepad for faster actions.
Main Story Quest Fully Updated
The entire New World main story quest is now fully updated based on player feedback and improvements made to the revamped starting experience. Experience fresh narratives, more quest variety, and a few new surprises as you put an end to Isabella’s campaign of corruption.
Mounts in Outpost Rush
Ride your favorite mount into battle, gain control of fortifications and resources, and strike down foes in this 20v20 game mode for Level 60+ players.
Seasonal Events
Rabbit’s Revenge
The plague of rabbits has returned once again, only now, they are more perilous than ever. Watch out for explosions as you hunt for event-specific loot.
Springtide Bloom
The Time of Awakening has arrived. Springtide Bloom calls its children to share an ancient secret capable of granting true freedom. Help the enigmatic Bloom Herald unravel the mysteries of the ethereal Wispybloom and collect Springtide's fertile bounty of event-specific rewards. Harvest with caution, as swarms of vile Wispy Wasps guard the blooms with fury!
PTR
The Public Test Realm (PTR) is a limited-availability server-set that grants an early look at upcoming features. These preview builds are snapshots of upcoming major releases and are not final versions — you may encounter bugs, crashes, missing text, or other issues. Between our internal testing efforts and your reports, we hope to catch and resolve all serious issues before they reach the live servers. Hundreds of changes have already been made — with more to come — and the full release notes will be shared on release day. However, not every bug or feedback piece will be actioned on before release — some changes need time to be investigated further, and may arrive in a subsequent patch or two.
To help with the feedback process, all newly created PTR characters will have the opportunity to instantly level to select level-ranges outfitted with appropriate gear and items.
The PTR will officially open on February 15. Jeśli natraficie na błędy lub będziecie mieć jakieś sugestie dotyczące usprawnień funkcji lub zawartości, prosimy o przekazanie ich poprzez nasze Discord (dostępna jest także opcja w grze służąca do przesyłania opinii). Zrobimy co w naszej mocy, aby wdrożyć pomysły naszych graczy w ramach aktualizacji zawartości na naszych serwerach gry. Udział graczy w testowaniu pomoże nam wprowadzać w przyszłości niesamowitą zawartość i aktualizacje!
During this iteration of the PTR, we look forward to hearing your playtest feedback on the following changes:
Winter Rune Forge
Season 5 Artifacts
Main Story Quest Update
Controller Support
Upgraded Combat & Animation System
Weapon Balance Updates
Mounts in Outpost Rush
Season 5 Rewards Track
Cooking Trade Skill changes
This content will be tested in rolling waves. Stay tuned to our Social channels and Discord for the full schedule.
PTR CLIENT ACCESS
This special preview client will be made available for download through the stand-alone Steam application, “New World Public Test Realm” (which should already be in your Steam library if you own the main game). When the test period is complete and the main New World game is updated with the previewed content, the PTR world will shut down and may be wiped clean. You will continue to see the New World PTR application in your Steam library, but there will not be an active server until the next time we announce a public test.
PTR BACKSTORY LOADOUTS
Upon character creation on the PTR, players will be given multiple caches of special armor and weapons. Each cache has a designation based upon a general build and a main attribute: CON, DEX, INT, FOC, and STR.
To help manage the sudden onset of new items, do not open all provided caches at once, or you’ll risk becoming encumbered! Instead, equip all provided bags and then follow-up with opening each cache deliberately. Any undesired caches can be dropped or deposited into your personal settlement storage.
Najczęściej zadawane pytania na temat PTR
JAK UZYSKAĆ DOSTĘP DO NOWEJ APLIKACJI PTR?
Każda osoba mająca grę New World będzie mieć automatyczny dostęp do aplikacji PTR. Aplikacja PTR nie jest kompatybilna z główną grą, więc konieczne będzie pobranie osobnego klienta aplikacji (wymagane jest też wolne miejsce na dysku twardym). Poprzez PTR gracze otrzymają dostęp do specjalnych światów dostępnych w obsługiwanych regionach. Na początku nie wszystkie regiony będą obsługiwane. Dostęp jest możliwy na zasadzie „kto pierwszy, ten lepszy”. Mogą pojawić się kolejki.
CZY MOGĘ UŻYWAĆ MOICH POSTACI Z GRY GŁÓWNEJ LUB JE PRZENIEŚĆ DO PTR?
Niestety nie. Są to oddzielne światy, więc obecnie nie można tego zrobić. Jednak, aby ułatwić testowanie, będziemy od czasu do czasu zapewniać naszym testerom specjalne wyposażenie, natychmiastowe poziomy itp.
CZY MOGĘ PRZEKAZYWAĆ SWOJE OPINIE DOTYCZĄCE PROJEKTU I ZAWARTOŚCI PTR?
Ukończyliśmy przedpremierowe wydania gry w PTR, które są w końcowej fazie testowania i naprawiania błędów. W tej fazie skupiamy się głównie na poprawianiu jakości – bardzo dziękujemy za wszelkie informacje zwrotne od graczy.
MAM PROBLEM: JAK MOGĘ SIĘ SKONTAKTOWAĆ Z OBSŁUGĄ KLIENTA?
Nasze reguły i zasady postępowania dotyczą także PTR – będziemy nadal obsługiwać moderację w grze. Niestety z powodu tymczasowości i niestabilnego charakteru PTR nie będziemy zapewniać wsparcia poprzez czat w grze i obsługę klienta.
NIE CHCĘ BRAĆ UDZIAŁU W PTR. CZY MOGĘ USUNĄĆ TĘ APLIKACJĘ Z MOJEJ BIBLIOTEKI?
Oczywiście, nie ma problemu. Gracze mogą zarządzać widocznością elementu PTR New World w bibliotece Steam. Po wejściu do opcji gry (prawy przycisk myszy > opcja Zarządzaj), można użyć funkcji „Ukryj grę”.
Dziękujemy za wsparcie i udział! Do zobaczenia w Aeternum.
