The game has gone through a major overhaul with changes across the board. New World: Aeternum now has improved combat, cross-play, better controller support, narrative improvements, and much more. The core of the game remains the same. Fans will still be able to choose from different classes, go on varied quests, and experience a large-scale PvP zone that is new to the game.
