More than just adding magic-based powers, this update is titled age of magic Designed to mark a fundamental change in the way the game will continue to evolve over the next few years. Unlike the expansions and add-ons released so far, the next theme update (era) will be released for free, but accompanied by a battle pass that mixes free and paid content, the latter replacing the current cosmetic DLC-based model.
The first battle pass will include building parts, weapons, armor, and witchcraft-based mounts, with many rewards unlocked by completing objectives or taking out a bank card to unlock levels without waiting. “Era is forward-looking, delivering content updates at a steady pace and ensuring that any player can easily support game development while gaining access to exclusive themed cosmetics“, Funcom said.
