ArcheAge’s Summer Update Goes Live, Brings Daru Transformation With It

As promised, the summer update for ArcheAge dropped today, granting players access to the new, more peaceful Daru transformation. The transformation comes with new abilities, all of which are intended to be used more for things like gathering and crafting than fighting.

The update also introduces 10v10 Flag wars – probably not Daru-friendly, and the Globa Arena Beta. The latter will allow players across four regions to play certain content together. Of course, there are improvements of various types as well, including skill balancing and quality-of-life.

For the Twitch Prime users in the MMORPG's crowd, Kakao Games is hosting a Drops Event. This event will last until July 20, during which time players can get their hands on in-game items such as elixirs, crystals, a Daru Pocket Watch, and a Sealed Shining Daru Costume Box. What rewards players receive are tied to how long they watch.
