New World Promises To Restore Lost Season Pass XP And Hotfix For Main Story Bug

While New World’s Rise of the Angry Earth expansion has managed to renew interest in the open-world MMORPG, it’s also brought a whole host of new problems to the open-world MMORPG. Aside from multi-hour queues, a long list of bugs and issues also popped up with the expansion’s release.

Last week, Amazon Game Studios rolled out a hotfix for a season pass bug that caused players to lose all season progress following a crash or a world reset. While the team was able to fix the bug, they weren’t able to restore lost progress. The studio says that its working to restore all lost XP but it will require multiple updates to do so. More information is promised soon.

The developers also promised a fix for multiple bugs that are preventing players from progressing through the main story quests. The hotfix will also restore missing Tier 4 and Tier 5 Azoth Staffs and will bring back the NPC Tibbs for the “Trial of the Gladiator” Marauder quest. That’s also coming soon.

Meanwhile, the New World dev team has dropped a brand-new Forged in Aeternum video where they talk about the creation of Rise of the Angry Earth’s cinematics. You’ll find that embedded right down below.
