Astraeos

New DLC Map Astraeos

The wait is over – Astraeos, the stunning map by Nekatus, sponsored by Nitrado, is officially released as a partner DLC! Originally planned as our premium map surprise for June, we are bringing you this mythical world earlier than expected. Starting today, it is available for $14.99 as a fully integrated DLC – instead of a premium mod.

With an area of ~264 km², this vast, ever-expanding landscape seamlessly connects with the main clusters on the official servers. But this is just the beginning – just like the legends that inspired it, Astraeos will continue to grow, with new realms, challenges, and updates shaping the world over time.

New Tameable Creature: Maeguana

Along with this map, you will encounter a new creature: the Maeguana. Its nurturing nature helps you raise your babies, and its skin membrane guides you to safety.

This impressive variant of the Maewing combines the agility of its counterpart with a robust, reptilian appearance – worthy of the gods of the pantheon.

Love Ascended is now live!

Lovebugs are no longer aggressive
Love Bug Hearts have been renamed to Love Hearts
New Lovebirds added that occasionally fly around and increase taming affinity and effectiveness for tamed creatures
