When Does the AFK Journey New Season (Chains of Eternity) Release? Answered

The free-to-play RPG AFK Journey is known for its regular seasonal updates, introducing new maps, storylines, and heroes. The upcoming season, "Chains of Eternity," is set to launch globally on January 17th.

Chains of Eternity Season Release Date & Requirements

The global release date for Chains of Eternity is January 17th. For players on servers other than the global server, the season will unlock once their server reaches 35 days old and they fulfill these prerequisites:

  • Reach Resonance Level 240.
  • Complete all pre-season AFK stages.

Meeting these criteria and having a server older than 35 days ensures access to the new season on the official release date.

Chains of Eternity: New Additions

Chains of Eternity brings a wealth of new content, including:

  • New Heroes: Lorsan (Wilder), Elijah and Lailah (Celestial)
  • New Boss: Illucia (Dream Realm)

Significant gameplay adjustments are also part of this update:

  • Daily AFK progress cap.
  • Paragon level adjustments: Paragon levels will have a more substantial impact on gameplay.
  • Exclusive Equipment enhancements: The upgrade from +15 to +20 for Exclusive Equipment will provide a significant boost. While this increases the effectiveness of investing in Supreme+ units, it's also considerably more expensive.
