MMORPG Shroud of Avatar is preparing for the most important phase in its history: the game is about to receive a massive reboot, according to technical director Chris Spears.
The team has put in a lot of work over the past two months, introducing over 2,000 changes, including a transition to a new version of the Unity engine, completely updated server infrastructure, improved patching, and a host of balance and performance tweaks.
The new version of the game, called the Chaos server, will officially launch on October 1, 2026 (although the developer is allowing slight adjustments to the timing), while the old server will only remain operational “in emergencies.” Testing has begun, and after consolidating success on the new servers, the creators plan to launch a large-scale advertising campaign during the Christmas holidays to attract new audiences to the project.
