TERA: The Lost Isle Now Live

En Masse announced today that TERA's The Lost Isle update has launched. This update replaces The Isle of Dawn with a new starter island, Stepstone Isle. Now only will a new story take place in this new starter zone, but it will also feature "an accelerated path to action," leading me to believe it will get players off the island and into the core game more quickly.

In addition to the starter zone, the character creation menu is receiving a revamp. Players will be able to "mix and match races and classes on a single screen." This will allow players to better find "the combination that works best for [them]." You will even be able to move your characters around on screen.

Gridiron Academy is a newly-added zone that will allow players to partake in an experience similar to the level 65 Gridiron PvP battleground while they are level 40-64. This new zone will include Vanguard quests and reputation rewards.

Returning players of level 58-65 will be greeted by the "Returning Hero" menu. This new feature allows players to "seamlessly re-engage with TERA via gear upgrades and walkthroughs of new features and essential skills."

For more information, head to the official site. Also keep an eye out for Kyra's Pop-Up Potion Shack, starting Thursday, which will mark the beginning of Halloween celebrations.
