Move over, Abyssal Assault, Abyss of Dungeons, and Abyss Online: Albion Online’s Abyssal Depths update is rolling up on June 30th with what Sandbox Interactive is calling a “major overhaul” of the newbie experience and a new type of PvP dungeon. Let’s start with the dungeon buried beneath Caerleon:

“This new kind of PvP-focused dungeon is a fast-paced, high-stakes battleground pitting groups of two or three players against monsters and other player characters in a collapsing environment filled with tactical objectives, all to earn new and unique rewards,” SBI says. The collapsing dungeon format will push players along in what kinda sounds like an extraction PvPvE mode for vets.

Newer players, on the other hand, will be treated to something Albion has needed for a long time: an extended tutorial and post-tutorial experience built into the Albion Journal. Instead of just plopping players into the gameworld without any guidance, now newer toons will see basic objections and goals to move them forward.

You can check out the whole run-down on the official site – and zip through the new trailer while you’re at it.
