The fantasy MMORPG Ashes of Creation is getting new content, including two playable races and a dungeon. You can also play the game around the clock for around two weeks.

What kind of game is this? Ashes of Creation is a sandbox fantasy MMORPG developed by Intrepid Studios. The game is still in the alpha phase, but is already playable and is exciting MMORPG fans – although there is also a lot to criticize. For our MMORPG expert Karsten Scholz, Ashes of Creation is one of the most exciting MMORPG projects for the coming year.

In a livestream, the developers announced that Ashes of Creation’s “Alpha Two” has reached Phase 2. It lasted around 90 minutes and also includes gameplay from a new dungeon.

What’s new in Ashes of Creation? Phase 2 of Alpha Two brings a range of new content, a complete overview can be found at forums.ashesofcreation.com. Here is a summary of probably the biggest innovations:

  • two new playable races
  • a new dungeon
  • Housing
  • three new nodes in the Sandsquall Desert
  • Marketplace and Marketplace Merchants

    • What are the nodes all about?

    The open game world of Ashes of Creation is divided into so-called nodes that players can conquer and expand – from small tent camps to metropolises.

    New playable races, a dungeon and more

    The two new peoples are the dwarven Dünir and the desert people of the Vaelune. The new dungeon is the Infested Forge, a large underground complex. Previously a home of the Dünir, the forge has now been abandoned.

    If you want to fulfill your dream of owning your own home in the game, you buy one of the “freeholds”. For testing purposes, such freeholds can be purchased by any level 20 character for just 100 gold.

    The test servers on which you can already play the game should be online around the clock until January 6, 2025. After that, they will be available for at least 5 days a week, as the development team announced in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
