Hello and Happy New Year!
We hope you enjoyed the end of the year festivities, but it's not over quite yet!
To start off the new year, we decided to release Olympus: Odyssey on Saturday the 13th of January at 10:00 A.M server time!
We have written a little FAQ that should address most of the questions you might have about Odyssey
We hope you guys are as excited as we are about this and that you'll enjoy the grind of a new server!
## Why Odyssey?
The purpose of Odyssey is to allow players to catch up with seasoned players.
That indeed means that Odyssey will have higher rates than Olympus to achieve that.
A lot of content was planned to be released (on **Olympus**) in the following months; however, most of this is end-game content:
- Multiverse Raids & Multiverse Invasion: A challenging game mode for players that find the game too easy
- Base Wars: unique PvPvE game mode
- World Boss: global hunting events
We also have some plans for:
- Expeditions: new custom generative PvE game mode
- Act9: latest act released
## When Odyssey?
The release date is set to Saturday 13th of January 2024
## Will there be some specific events on Odyssey?
Yes, find the calendar just below this message
## Do I need to create a new account for Odyssey?
No. Olympus and Odyssey share the same credentials. You just need to download Odyssey's own launcher.
## How much time will Odyssey last?
We plan to merge Odyssey after 2 months.
## Can I play Olympus & Odyssey at the same time?
The simple answer is no, you can connect only to Odyssey **or** Olympus, not the two server simultaneously
We can and will monitor abusers and they will get punished
## What will happen to Olympus characters
Nothing, you will still be able to play Olympus while Odyssey is online
## What will happen to Odyssey characters
Odyssey characters will be merged with Olympus characters, **you will not lose anything from either Odyssey or Olympus**.
A specific UI will be made available on the website to permit you to switch between your "active character"
**You will keep both Olympus & Odyssey characters, you will just be able to have 4 max at the same time, a feature will be released to permit people to swap the "active character" on website**
## What will happen when Odyssey and Olympus get merged?
All your Odyssey content will be transferred there.
- Conflicting names **from Odyssey** will be offered a free rename
- All your content (Bazaar, mails, warehouse, bidding...) is transferred to Olympus as well, don't worry about the merge, that's our job to make it smooth like all other things on Olympus
## Is there something special about Odyssey?
Odyssey will have some achievements with some unique rewards. You will be rewarded for reaching some milestones, as well as for performing exclusively well in Odyssey. Most of the rewards will be delivered at merging time. More details on these achievements coming soon.
## Will Asia latency problems be addressed?
Yes, we have worked a lot to permit the players located in Asia to play with low latency.
With the release of Odyssey, both servers will have a new Asia channel available.
Please note that:
- EU players will have increased latency on Asia channels so it's not recommended to play there as an EU player.
- PvP activities will be kept on European channels because most of our community is located in EU.
