Sandbox Interactive has officially announced that the next major update for Albion Online—titled Abyssal Depths—is set to launch on June 30, 2025. This content-packed update brings big changes to the early game and introduces a brand-new PvP dungeon that’s all about high stakes and fast decisions.
The centerpiece of the update is a new type of PvP dungeon, designed for small groups of two to three players. These chaotic battlegrounds mix PvE and PvP action, with collapsing environments, tactical objectives, and the constant threat of other players looking to claim the loot for themselves. Whether you’re fighting monsters or ambushing another team, success means earning exclusive new rewards—and surviving the mayhem.
Also included in Abyssal Depths is a major overhaul of the early-game experience. Sandbox Interactive is aiming to make Albion Online more accessible to newcomers while better reflecting the depth and complexity of the game’s core systems. The tutorial and post-tutorial flow have been reworked and integrated more closely into the Albion Journal, which now offers a more structured guide for new players as they explore the world and learn the ropes.
Other improvements include:
-
Streamlined HUD Tracker with updated UI elements
-
New interactive tutorial features
-
Refined systems around crafting, the Destiny Board, and buildings
-
Quality-of-life tweaks to improve onboarding and overall game flow
A new Dev Talk video featuring Game Director Moritz Bokelmann is available now, offering a detailed breakdown of everything coming in the Abyssal Depths update.
About Albion Online
Albion Online is a player-driven sandbox MMORPG where everything is built, bought, and fought over by players.

With five biomes spread across two continents, and a mix of solo and group content across PvE and PvP, Albion Online offers players freedom, danger, and discovery at every turn.
Abyssal Depths launches June 30, 2025—and it might just be the best time to return to Albion or jump in for the first time.
