A temporary maintenance in ArcheAge Chronicles has ended with a batch of fixes, including broken whispers, a tutorial blocker and better hitbox detection for Krogal. Hereafter Stones can no longer be sold.
XLGAMES has finished fixes for blocked tutorial quests and bosses that stop spawning in ArcheAge Chronicles’ Early Access. It also plans freely rebindable movement keys and a way to hide chat, and says Linux and Steam Deck are not officially supported.
XLGAMES has opened ArcheAge Chronicles to everyone on Steam as an Early Access release. Players can now head into Auroria, and the studio says it will keep shaping the game around community feedback.
ArcheAge Chronicles will offer machine-translated Japanese and Brazilian Portuguese text when it enters Early Access, though neither language is officially supported. XLGAMES has also confirmed that Steam Family Sharing won’t work with the game.
ArcheAge Chronicles won’t offer character transfers during Early Access, and players on different servers can’t play together. XLGAMES says to pick a server with friends before creating characters.
Executive Producer Ham explains what XLGAMES has fixed since the Steam Next Fest demo, why combat feel is still being worked on, and what the first post-launch update in December will bring, including a female Warrior and the Gladius.
ArcheAge Chronicles launches in Early Access on Steam on November 3, 2026, at 3:00 PM PST. Pre-orders are open now and include an exclusive Dawn Pioneer costume set.
