The latest Albion Online Q&A with the developers has been posted, this time with Game Director Robin Henkys, Community Lead Emma-Jade Wightman and Combat Designer Michael Schwahn.

Starting September 29th, Albion Online players will be able to participate in the game's Guild Warfare Season 4. As with previous seasons, players will be able to get hold of exclusive rewards including avatars and "the epic War Rhino". The three highest ranking guilds will be immortalized in the Conquerors' Hall. Lastly, all players will receive 7-days of Premium and a 25% boost to all PvE Fame.

When the next big Albion Online update launches on July 31st, it will also come with the Faction Warfare system. Each Royal city and biome has its own faction and faction leader. Leaders have unique personalities and quirks "that make them charismatic to their allies...and frightening foes on the battlefield". The leaders are profiles in this latest video by the Albion Online team.

Sandbox Interactive is celebrating the first anniversary of Albion Online with a look back at the weeks since launch. In addition, Sandbox is featuring a pretty sweet raffle that will see lucky winners take home prizes including Legendary Packs, Epic Packs, in-game gold, Veteran Packs, posters, books and "other goodies".
