Hi, fellow gamer and MMO enthusiast!

Less than 3 weeks have passed since the full release of Fractured Online, and we are already dropping the first major content update!

To celebrate, we are launching a Free Week when everyone can play the game without having to buy it… and it actually lasts longer than 1 week 😉

Read below for all the details!

Free Week

The Free Week will start on Friday, August 16 at 1pm UTC. Everyone will be able to play by signing up here on fracturedmmo.com and downloading our standalone launcher.

The event will end on Sunday, August 25 at 8am UTC. That’s more than 9 days of free play! After that, everyone who wants to continue playing will be able to buy the game on Steam or through our store.

Please note that it doesn’t matter where you buy the game. If you play on the standalone launcher and then buy on Steam, once you launch the game from Steam for the first time you’ll be able to link your Steam account to your Fractured account. No progress will be lost!

New Summons

Next

Summons have undoubtedly been one of the most successful additions to the game this year, so… why not having more? 11 more, I say!

• Ultimate, 5 control slots: Arboreal / Mountain / Ember Dragonling
• Ultimate, 3 control slots: Crystal / Ice / Fire /  Storm Elemental
• Regular, 3 control slots: (Elder) Arctic Wolf
• Regular, 2 control slots: Direwolf, Skeletal Mage, Skeletal Warrior

Dragonlings belong to the school of Hunting, while Elementals belong to schools of magic (Pyromancy, Geomancy, Cryomancy, Aeromancy). The former are well-rounded summons (and undoubtedly the strongest in the game), while the latter are definitely more offense-oriented.

The Arctic Wolf can be considered as the Hunting equivalent of the Ghoul, while the Direwolf as an offensive alternative to the Bear. The Skeletal Warrior is a more DPS-oriented alternative to the Skeletal Knight, while the Skeletal Mage plays the same role of the Skeletal Archer, with a twist.

There’s something new for everyone here! Moreover, we are improving some aspects of summoner gameplay, like targeting and summon behaviors.

Adventurer Tasks

Adventurer Tasks are a system akin to the “daily quests” found in many MMOs but more respectful of your time, since they can be accumulated so they don’t “force” you to login every day.

In this first iteration, Adventurer Tasks consist of missions that ask you to defeat monsters, from the weak Goblins to the mighty Jotunns. Each quest can be completed by hunting in a specific area of a continent, and can come in 5 difficulty levels. The maximum difficulty can only be obtained by rerolling (see below). The harder the quest, the better the rewards!

The maximum amount of quests you can accumulate depends on you rank, from 1 below rank 10 to 5 at rank 40 or above. If the current amount you have is below the maximum, a new one will be assigned to you at midnight (UTC). This means that if your rank is 40 or higher, you can let them accumulate and complete them all together every 5 days!

If you don’t like a quest, you can reroll it to receive another one at random with a difficulty level that will be the same or higher (unless the difficulty is already at the maximum – it this case it might be lowered). VIP users get 3 rerolls per day, while regular accounts get 1.

Emotes

From the most utilitarian animations to static poses that would make Team Rocket jealous, here come the emotes of Fractured Online!

Up to 8 emotes can be assigned to your Emotes Wheel, which can be brought up with an hotkey (default: F1). All accounts start with several emotes unlocked by default, while more can be purchased from the Appearence menu for Dynamight Tokens.

Easy!

Balance

We are also doing a minor balance pass in this patch. The main change is a decrease in the profitability of the Trial of Galvanos and a boost to the profitability of the Trial of Babilis, Summonable Legends and Ultimate Legends. We’re also tweaking some numbers in some armor sets.

Nothing major here, as we feel game balance is in a pretty good place right now. The details will be released later on.

This is all for this update.

Enjoy Fractured Online!
