New World Aeternum has been a hit with players since its launch on Xbox in late 2024. With its rich PvP and PvE content, players can experience intense battles across the vast island of Aeternum.
New World Aeternum Season 9 has recently begun. The game developers have named this season Season of the Banner.
This season brings new challenges and gameplay, elevating the overall competitive experience. We believe this season will not disappoint PvP enthusiasts.
Next, learn about the specific content of this season to determine if it’s worth playing.
Rich PvP Content: Capture The Flag Mode And New 3v3 Arena Map
Capture The Flag Mode
First and foremost, one of the biggest highlights of Season of the Banner is the newly introduced Capture the Flag mode. In this mode, players will experience the thrill of PvP.
Players must battle for flags across two community-named maps to control the battlefield and ultimately achieve victory.
The entire battle for the flag is filled with fast-paced skirmishes and tactical cooperation, requiring players to work closely together to capture the enemy flag and defend their own.
Capture the Flag mode adds strategic depth and interactivity to the game.
New 3v3 Arena Map
In addition to the aforementioned Capture the Flag mode, Season 9 also introduces a brand-new map for the 3v3 Arena mode: Verdant Court.
This new map is set in an ancient temple, with narrow passageways that force players to engage in close combat. This requires exceptional teamwork and strategic coordination.
Furthermore, to adapt to the fast-paced combat in these confined environments, players will need to rethink their usual tactics and strengthen their strategic deployment.
Seasonal Events
In addition to new modes and maps, Season 9 also introduces a wealth of seasonal events.
The Summer Medleyfaire and World Boss Events: Expedition Unleashed are two events not to be missed.
Both offer new challenges and a wealth of New World Aeternum Coins.
Summer Medleyfaire
The Summer Medleyfaire returns players to the shores of Aeternum, a land of music, fishing, and festivities.
Players can earn Summer Tokens by participating in both casual and challenging quests, which can be redeemed for a variety of unique rewards, including skins, emotes, and house items.
In addition, players can catch rare fish through Musical Performances and redeem them for exclusive accessories and furniture.
World Boss Events: Expedition Unleashed
World Boss Events: Expedition Unleashed is another highlight of this season. Players will join other adventurers in challenging powerful bosses to win rare rewards and items, including in-game coins.
Each month, World Bosses will be available in the following order:
- Admiral Blackpowder: Aug 5–11
- Empress Zhou: Sept 9–15
- Mammoth Mahantaram: Oct 7–13
Together, these rich seasonal events keep the world of Aeternum vibrant and full of life.
Updated Artifacts And Improved Reward Track
Season 9 introduces new and remastered artifacts.
Players will be able to hunt new Artifacts, including the Plagueherald (Helmet), Yeeterson (Warhammer), and Crescent’s Wave (Greatsword).
Remastered versions of older Artifacts, such as the Vengeance (Life Staff Rework), the Grey Wizard’s Hat (Hat Rework), and the Creed (Feet Rework), provide players with more weapon options.
Season 9 also features improvements to the Reward Track, offering both Free and Premium Season Tracks. By completing seasonal quests, players can unlock new cosmetics, boosts, and seasonal gear, providing more motivation and goals.
Store Updates
In addition to the aforementioned updates and improvements to combat, New World Aeternum also introduces a new round of store updates.
These include new skins and appearances. Players can earn these special items through activities and quests, giving them even more customization options.
Previewing The New Outpost Rush Map
Finally, this season offers a bonus: players will have a sneak peek at the Outpost Rush map, which will launch in Season 10.
In short, New World Aeternum Season 9 brings a wealth of new content. Through these updates and events, we can experience even more exciting battles and adventures in the challenging and fun world of Aeternum.
