Amazon Games said Aeternum is coming to the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC starting on October 15, 2024. Players can choose to explore Aeternum solo or co-op, using cross-platform play to team up with others. New World Aeternum launched on the PC in 2021.
Players can explore the island of Aeternum. It’s a massive, beautiful world and uncover the secret truth of the eternal island and its strange inhabitants. Endless opportunities to fight, forage, and forge await among the island’s wilderness and ruins.
You can play solo or use cross-platform play to team up with others or compete head-to-head in a variety of PvP battles. Customize the look, skills, and abilities of your character, and experiment with different builds to suit your play style.
Players can control magical forces or wield deadly melee and ranged weapons. Timing and positioning are key to defeating enemies in combat. Use your skills to survive the island’s horrors and reap its valuable rewards.
Players can gather resources and refine them into working materials to craft powerful new potions, weapons and gear, and increase your power and skill in combat.
You can also enjoy an enhanced experience that includes all the content from New World on PC, in addition to a wealth of new features including the first-ever large-scale PvP zone, a challenging 10-player raid, end-game solo trials, an upgraded leveling experience, brand new character archetypes, revamped story and dialogue system, cinematics and much more.
