The Gloria Victis team has sent word that the latest update has been deployed that brings new islands into the game that will become the home of exiled players until they earn enough reputation to leave. Players become exiled due to excessive unlawful behavior (i.e. griefing, etc).
In addition, the following were added:
- overhauled starter zones
- +25% larger world
- new dynamic events for high level players
- a cyclic PvP tournament called "Valley of Death
- improved combat
You can read the full update notes on the Gloria Victis site.
