Atlas Opens Ice Dungeon And Five New Islands With 'Into The Ice' Mega-Update #2
Grapeshot Games rolled out "Into the Ice" Mega-Update #2 on the Atlas live servers over the weekend after just a few days’ testing on the PTR. The update opens the icy doors to the new Polar Ice Dungeon with a grumpy Abominable Snowman waiting deep within the dungeon’s frigid walls.
The update also introduces two new quests, five new polar and equatorial islands, new ship structures, new cosmetics, and two new tameable creatures: the elephant/camel-like Olfend and the heavily-armored Giant Tortuga.
"The unique Olfend possesses some utilitarian attributes based around water. Water can be collected as you ride it across fertile land or by drinking from lakes and the considerate Olfend will store it, distribute it amongst water containers or...spit it in a friend’s eye. The delicately-legged creature also has the potential to be more heroic than it may appear by being put to use in extinguishing fires."
"In some ways the Tortuga, or carrier turtle, acts like an organic armoured personnel carrier and, in others, it is similar to an organic submarine. Nestle under its sectioned shell for protection or stay sheltered as it plunges into the depths and affords its passengers reduced oxygen consumption."
Players can also expect various quality of life improvements and a ton of bug fixes. Check out the Atlas official site for the full list of changes. By the way, the game is on sale at 50% off on Steam. Grab a copy of the pirate MMO for just $14.99 from now until tomorrow. There’s also a brand new trailer waiting for you below.
