The Aion Classic team has released a producer letter detailing their plans for the remainder of the year. A major update is scheduled for late October or early November, introducing a new class, multiple PvE and PvP instances, a new map, and various quality of life adjustments. This release will also include class balancing changes based on player feedback. Additionally, the developers are preparing a time-limited event server planned for late Q4, modeled after a format used in other regions.
The development team stated that they have been working closely with community representatives to address player concerns. This has led to requests for changes to item and currency drop rates, as well as adjustments to certain encounters. Faction balance measures are also in progress, with new mechanics and events aimed at supporting underrepresented factions. A faction change feature is planned for release next year as part of a future update.
The letter also addressed ongoing technical and gameplay issues. Crash problems are still under investigation, and the developers are coordinating with the original publisher for solutions. Cheating continues to be a priority, with thousands of accounts permanently banned in recent months. Players are encouraged to report suspicious activity through official support channels with clear evidence. The update concluded with a reaffirmation of the team’s ongoing work to address feedback and improve the overall experience for players.
