New World is an MMORPG that features both PvP and PvE for players to engage in. While many thrive on fighting other players in small duels or large-scale wars, joining a small group and venturing through a dungeon is also a common way to play alongside others. Like many MMOs, New World has dungeons, known as expeditions in the game, that you can discover and explore with other players to progress through the game and find rare items. By the end of this guide, you will learn all of the dungeons, or expeditions, in New World and where to find them.
All Dungeons in New World and Where to Find Them
Before you can unlock your first dungeon, you must complete the main story until you start Destiny Unearthed. With this quest, you will unlock the Amrine Excavation and be tasked with venturing into it with a group of other players. For any expedition, you are required to have at least three players in a group including yourself before entering. One person in your group also needs a tuning orb to activate the expedition.
