Game of Gods brings over a year's worth of content to the rich world of this blockbuster MMORPG. Explorers have discovered the fourth layer of Astral Space, a zone guarded by giant demons and populated with 15 unique allods, and stumbled upon the long lost Dead City raid with its 10 legendary bosses. The battle for control of this expanding world has grown even more intense, with bands of 12 meeting regularly in Witch's Hollow to compete in PvP territory wars called Skirmishes. Even familiar places now have more to offer with the completion of the long-awaited Nezebgrad Beautification Project, enriching the industrial city with more of Allods Online's famously lavish world design. Lovers of beauty will also enjoy kicking back in the gorgeous new Tropical Allod with its butterfly hunts, cocktail mixes, and competitive crab races. The warriors of Sarnaut can even indulge in a bit of karaoke, though the newly introduced support-class Bard archetype may be better-suited than most!
