Albion Online's Rogue Frontier Update: Embrace the Outlaw Life
Albion Online kicks off 2025 with its first major update, Rogue Frontier. This update centers around a life on the fringes, introducing a brand-new faction, innovative trading mechanics, and exciting new weaponry. Players can now join an underground network of rebels operating outside the established order.
The Smugglers' Rise in Albion Online
The Smugglers, a group tired of the Royal Continent's restrictions, have established a presence in the untamed Outlands. They've created hidden bases known as Smuggler's Dens, offering players a place to store loot, establish operations, and engage in illicit activities.
These dens provide essential services, including banks, repair stations, and travel planning tools. They are integral to the Smuggler's Network, a revolutionary trading system connecting the Outlands in unprecedented ways. Players can now transport goods, bypassing the Royal Continent's taxes and regulations, though they'll pay a fee to the Smugglers.
The Smugglers now function as a full-fledged faction, providing missions to earn their trust. Tasks may include recovering stolen crates from ambushes or rescuing captured Smugglers from Royal Guards. Successful missions reward players with Smuggler's Coins, boosting their standing within the faction.
Beyond the Smugglers: New Features in Rogue Frontier
The Rogue Frontier update also delivers highly anticipated features:
- Bank Overview: A centralized location to track all your stored items across the game world, eliminating the frustration of misplaced loot.
- Kill Trophies: PvP players can now commemorate their victories by collecting trophies from defeated opponents.
- Albion Journal Creatures Category: A new challenge for players to catalog the diverse creatures inhabiting the Outlands.
- Three New Crystal Weapons: Tailored for explorers, traders, and fighters, offering diverse combat options.
