Albion Online has been updated with the final major addition prior to the game's release on July 17th. Called "Hector", the update brings a number of big features into the game including the Black Market, new Hellgates, Outlands improvements, new mounts, Destiny Board UI improvements and much more. Between today's release and July 17th, the team will be hard at work on bug fixes and feature enhancements to ready everything for release.
The black zones of Albion are undergoing several changes to make them more accessible and attractive to guilds and players with and without a territory.
We have removed the harbors and black zone cities, instead a magnificent Realmgate has appeared in Caerleon that players can use to travel to the Outlands and back. Resource distribution has also been adjusted, with black zones having higher enchantment rates. Watchtower territories in the black zones will now also be the only place to find Tier 8.
To provide a quick overview of Hector, the Albion team have prepared a brand new trailer. Check it out below before heading over to the Albion Online site to read up on all the changes.
