The Ashes of Creation Alpha Two realms are back online, and Intrepid Studios has announced an extended testing period running until Tuesday, March 11, 2025. This gives testers time to explore, and provide feedback.
Daily Restarts Scheduled
To maintain server stability and better gameplay, the team has scheduled daily restarts:
- 11:00 for NA Realms
- 02:00 for EU Realms
Expect occasional downtimes for additional fixes, but the developers will keep us updated via their official channels.
Launcher Update – Vyra Changes
While this patch does not bring any big gameplay changes, Intrepid Studios has deployed backend updates to Vyra. This means testers will notice a slight difference when logging in. Now, in the launcher’s environment dropdown, you will see separate options for Lyneth and Lotharia, as well as Vyra.
Important Note: This is not a wipe or rollback. Your character will still be on its correct realm, but you will need to select the right dropdown before logging in.
With extended testing and ongoing updates, the game is steadily progressing. Read the latest patch notes below, and do not forget to share your top issues and feedback to Intrepid Studios before Tuesday, March 11.
