AFK Journey’s first major story update, Song of Strife, is here. After a launch that cemented its place as a worthy successor to predecessor AFK Arena, the isometric action-RPG title is taking players far beyond the confines of Aspira and into a whole new region of the world. Confront new characters, stories and threats.
The story of Song of Strife takes you deep into the new region of the Asian Wests, where the player character is hunted by an impostor disguised as Merlin. If you want to find out what this false Merlin is, you’ll need to work with the local Müller clan and participate in their Warsong Festival.
But you won’t have to go it alone, as Song of Strife also introduces two new characters to the roster, hailing from the Asian Wests. Elsa is a mage who specializes in earth-based magic while Soren focuses on a strong warrior toolset that offers both strong offense and defense as the situation demands.
AFK rewards must flow.
It’s one of those rare treats where we have a lot to talk about that even the common man can understand. Because Song of Strife also includes an exciting, innovative transformation dynamic scenario. Wind, its direction and its strength can change the shape of the dunes in the Asian Wests, changing the landscape dramatically as you pass through it.
Additionally, AFK Journey’s first expansion offers limited-time power-ups in the form of charms. Magic charms are seasonal, so you need to use them or lose them, but that only encourages you to check out the next season when you get a taste of this power.
