A new year, a new patch! We've packed in new mechanics, improved systems, and exciting events for you to jump into right away. Check out what's new below!

Chests now drop in the new Level Dungeon! Even if your luck runs low, you'll still walk away with something valuable after your runs along with the EXP.

The daily Rift Treasure Event has returned!

• Runs daily from 12:00-14:00 CET

and 20:00-22:00 CET - do not miss out!

A new event that doubles loot inside dungeons is now live!

• Test run Friday 23.01.2026: 20:00-22:00 CET

• Once verified to be stable, it will return more frequently!

• Note: this event does not affect Smith attempts!

Wearing the full Hellforge or PvP Set now grants a scaling bonus effect, which increases based on the + value of your gear.

[SWORDS] You must equip the entire set to activate the effect!

A Hardcore mode has been added to the Illusion Dungeon!

• +50% Guaranteed Item Drop Rate

• Bonus Smith Chance

• Warning: you need a team - solo players will struggle unless you're running ultra-boosted stats!

Missions inside the Illusion Dungeon now scale with party size, giving each player an individual guaranteed reward and chances for extra loot!

Tip: get your group ready - run it at 20:00 CET today (and even twice if you've got a cooldown skip)!

Crafting certain items (like Tinctures, Pet Food, etc.) will now reward you with Profession EXP. Level up your trade by doing what you love!

The Shady Dealer now sells a Skin Chest Selector instead of chests!

Choose exactly the set you want!

A new daily quest now rewards you with 1x Universal Dungeon Ticket (of your choice)!

• Just deal 25% of a boss's HP to complete it. Perfect for all players to enjoy a daily free dungeon run!

Clicking on a dungeon ticket now brings up the same UI as if you were next to the NPC!

Enter instantly from anywhere - no more running around.

The World Bosses in Fireland and Forgotten Dunes now have a chance to drop the Double Rift Loot Pouch, even when the event isn't active!

Activate your own loot bonus anytime!

You cannot combine the event with the pouch. Whichever runs longer will overwrite the other.

While the event is active, you cannot use the pouch. If you use it a minute before the event starts, it is wasted!

The Epic Rift Compass now gives its buff for 5 minutes instead of 2.

[HOURGLASS] This change accommodates longer rift fights on newer maps and supports players still building up their equipment.

Get in-game and explore the new systems and events! As always, your feedback is essential to us - share your thoughts and let us know how it feels!

Stay sharp out there, heroes! [SWORDS]

The depths are generous today. Dont miss out! [GEM][SWORDS]

Monsters are blessed by the Polar Lights, dropping Polarlight Chests filled with incredible loot. But the real prize? The Polarlight Cape!

[SPARKLES] Polarlight Cape Power Unleashed:

This cape grants crazy buffs for 1 hour, turning you into an absolute powerhouse! But once the hour is up, the cape vanishes. Will you harness its strength before it fades?

[MONEY] Double Your Gains:

The Polarlight Chest drop rate is unaffected by regular bonuses, keeping the competition fair for everyone!

New armor, new ore, and a big step toward clearer PvP vs PvE identity.

• A brand-new PvP armor set starts at Level 87 and scales up to Level 97 (+10).

• Craft it at the Shady Dealer, who now offers PvP-focused gear... at a price.

  (Crafting this gear has a 50% chance to succeed.)

• Requires the new Ancient Armor Component, dropped by all bosses starting in Forgotten Dunes.

• New ore: Black War Core.

• Can be mined in Fireland and Forgotten Dunes.

• Drops War Cores, required to upgrade the new PvP equipment.

• War Cores are required from +7 onward.

• For veterans: this system works similar to Flamebreaks.

• High-level miners will profit - shops will want these materials. [MONEY]

We pushed existing gear toward PvE and let the new set define PvP.

Boots (PvE Buff)

• Previously: +5% Magic Resistance (+10), +7.5% at Hellforged +10.

• Now: +5% Bonus Monster Damage (+10) and +10% Bonus Monster Damage at Hellforged +10.

Helmet (Hellforged)

• Now grants up to +10% Evasion and +10% Skill Speed.

Level 72 Necklace

• Now grants +10% Bonus Monster Damage and +10% EXP.

• With Soul Quartz Empowerment: +11% Monster Damage and +11% EXP.

Crit & Penetration necklaces are now clearly PvP-focused.

[GEM] Upcoming: a PvP Jewelry Set (Bracelet + Necklace). No new rings yet - current ones are performing well.

A PvP-focused pet is arriving very soon. Stay tuned.

The new PvP set will receive a special full-set bonus in a future patch.

• Extra bonuses when wearing the full armor set.

• We will monitor mixing and may shift more power into the set bonus if needed.

Caratas City has been reworked.

• Some plant bushes are currently too robust and block movement - this will be fixed.

• A few doors may still be unlocked... citizens will fix that soon.

• Maybe one secret door should stay?

Feedback welcome!

A new area is live - not quite a dungeon, not quite a map:

• No rifts.

• Comparable to the old desert pyramids.

• Designed primarily for high EXP farming.

Warning: later rooms are extremely dangerous. Recommended: group of 2 and tank builds.

Class balance note:

• Mages benefit strongly from kiting here.

• Each class has clear advantages - we will monitor balance closely.

Later stages grant more EXP than Forgotten Dunes.

Bosses in the new area

• A Tree Boss.

• A Stone Boss (very... Stein-reich ).

• A boss room exists but is currently closed - it will open in a future patch.

Due to monster replacements in a previous patch, some EXP hotspots in Forgotten Dunes were too strong.

• These have been slightly reduced to intended values.

• Slightly increased skill area size.

• Helps better match other wizard variant.

• New NavMesh system for smoother movement and pathing.

• Damage number display reduced: less clutter, smaller and clearer.

• New small visual effect when you receive critical damage - see if you notice it!

• Christmas decorations removed (no more city trees).

• Attempted fix for the jumping moon when using Day/Night Cycle - please report if issues remain.

Thanks for playing and testing with us. As always - feedback is highly appreciated!

From Level 80 in late 2024 to Level 100 in 2025 - honestly... what a year.

Things went up, things went down, sometimes frustrating, sometimes chaotic - but we never stopped.

We listened. We learned. We improved.

And even if fixes don't always happen instantly after a report - we do take your feedback seriously and work on it step by step.

This year we slowly but steadily grew - and yes, we basically doubled our player base compared to the end of 2024. That's huge for us.

Thank you for:

• Sticking around

• Giving honest feedback (even when it hurts )

• Supporting Inferna financially

• Creating videos, shorts, streams, and content

Even if only a few players try Inferna because of that - it snowballs .

Without you, an Indie MMORPG like Inferna simply wouldn't be possible.

Looking toward 2026:

• Level 120 update

• Much-needed PvP balance

• Final adjustments before Full Release

• A Fresh Event Server, later merged into Main

My personal goal? 400-500 peak players.

That would already be insane...

And who knows... with a full release, Steam promotion, and a fresh server - maybe even more .

Even on stressful days, the nice messages from you who love Inferna genuinely put a smile on my face.

Thank you all .

Have a healthy Christmas and a strong start into the New Year [SPARKLES].

Alright... this one is a big one. We touched tons of systems, paved new progression, and want to be transparent about future plans (and mistakes). Grab a drink and take your time with this read.

• All the buggy, overlapping spawns that slipped in after the visual overhaul have been rebuilt from scratch.

• Fresh monsters now roam Map 18 - not just for variety, but to support the Hellforged shield path below.

• Please give the new placement 2-7 days before calling it cursed; even internally we needed time to vibe with it.

Send us feedback so we can keep polishing.

• Level 65 PvP shields can now be transformed into Hellforged versions.

• Every upgrade raises the level requirement. That's intentional and keeps the power fantasy tied to character growth.

• One blueprint now handles both the new Hellforged shields and the old ones.

• You can upgrade shields directly through the blueprint - just like every other Hellforged item. Risky! Better to do it at the smith.

• This upgrade is expensive and can straight-up destroy your shield.

• If it breaks, every gem or enchant slotted into it goes with it.

• Please think twice before gambling your favorite shield on day one.

Letting players run fully upgraded Hellforged gear at Level 80 was our mistake. It fed Fireland farmers and removed incentives to play content like the Forgotten Dunes.

• Existing Hellforged items will scale their level requirements upward.

• This will not happen without warning. We'll give you plenty of time to level before anything flips.

• These new shields are the first brick in that healthier progression path.

• A snake-like boss now stalks the dunes.

• It can drop the Shield Blueprint with the same chance logic as other bosses.

• The Trinity Concord Warden spawns in the Deadland as a global world event.

• Defeat it and every Empire gains up to 24 hours of buffs: +35% Gold, +35% EXP, +35% Drop Rate, pets +50% EXP, Christmas Presents +25% drop chance (just for Christmas), and +25% HP.

• It isn't perfectly balanced yet on purpose - we want a fight that demands a huge squad, zero solo cheese, and a true community reward.

Think of it like an "Inferna Birthday Boost" that might visit more than once per year.

• This event doubles each Rift's loot table, so you can potentially roll twice per run.

• The second table is still chance-based, so your normal drop chance affects how efficient Double Rift Loot feels.

More flames. More loot. More chaos.

• You can now ignite up to 5 maps simultaneously. If multiple players activate artifacts, multiple maps burn together.

• Each burning map grants +25% Bonus EXP, +25% Drop Chance, and +25% Gold to all players for 1 hour.

Check Quest Tracking to see:

• Which maps are currently ablaze with power.

• How long each effect will last with a real-time countdown.

Grab your artifact. Ignite the battlefield. Rule the flames.

Standing around with 8 players for nearly an hour? Yeah, we felt that too - so we're making changes.

• World Boss HP drastically reduced in Fireland and Forgotten Dunes.

• To balance it, bosses will now regenerate health rapidly over time.

• Solo or low-DPS groups will not be able to out-damage the regen.

• Groups of 4-8 or more can bring the boss down in a short fight, not an hour-long snoozefest.

The goal: faster, more engaging boss fights without turning it into a solo farm.

• Volcrats were zooming around like they stole your lunch; their movement is now normal.

• We also fixed some character walk animations that looked like a duck parade. Hope it looks way better now. ^^

• We cut down the number of Dune archers (personal veto, sorry not sorry). Want more ranged enemies or Rift-exclusive archers? Tell us!

• Ranged monsters in the dunes keep low HP by design, but feedback is always welcome.

• Auto potions now stay active when you die against monsters. Pure quality of life.

Higher-tier rifts don't pay out enough for the time they demand. We're working on better drop scaling so climbing tiers feels juicy. Hang tight for a future patch.

• Daily rankings, weekend rankings, and fresh categories are on the roadmap.

• More leaderboards = more flexing, more rivalries, more goals.

• A PvP-focused pet egg is in development with a much lower drop rate than its PvM buddy.

• A pity system will make sure powerlevel never goes backwards - it only stays the same or improves.

• New PvP & PvM jewelry concepts are cooking; tell us which stats or set bonuses you'd love.

• We're also debating new gems, more Soulquarz options, and extra PvP gear bonuses.

Some of you already hit end-level professions. That was fast. Respect.

• We're adjusting high-level profession unlocks so the climb feels right.

• Missing recipes are being added so mastery actually means something.

Also - are you miners or farmers IRL? The efficiency numbers are unreal.

Christmas is coming which means more time for us to ship updates and more moments for you to enjoy Inferna. If anything looks buggy, strange, or unintended, just ask us. Your feedback matters more than you think.

Restart Steam to grab the update NOW!

We've rolled out a fresh build ahead of Inferna's Birthday Event. Dive in for gear upgrades, inventory boosts, monster tuning, and plenty of birthday hype.

• Refine +7, +8, and +9 Level 75 equipment straight into Hellforged by clicking the Blueprint.

• Only equipped items qualify, and shields will arrive in a future patch.

• Failures destroy the item along with every gem and enchantment.

• Expect higher costs than normal upgrades.

Success Rates

• +7 -> Hellforged: 12.5%

• +8 -> Hellforged: 25%

• +9 -> Hellforged: 50%

This path skips the grind to +10, but it remains high risk, high cost, and still deletes every gem and enchantment you slotted. Choose wisely, smiths!

All capes that drop from Rifts now land as stackable Cape Selection Items. Save bag slots and pick your exact cape reward the moment you open the bundle.

A special Birthday Event fires up on 20.12.2025! Expect unique content, limited rewards, and celebrations across every map. Don't miss the party.

Every monster in the Forgotten Dunes is now 40% quieter ? like holding a 26 cm pizza next to a 30 cm pie. Smaller slice, huge difference.

Monster and Rift levels now match their map zones for smoother progression and cleaner balance.

Convert potions into Universal Potions, then pick the buff you want when consuming them.

Potions and select consumables can no longer be sold for gold, tightening the economy and preventing easy exploits.

A fresh Worldboss prowls the Forgotten Dunes, and Fireland now boasts its own fiery foe plus balance tweaks. Rally your friends and chase the loot.

• Fixed incorrect monster and Rift levels.

• Implemented backend improvements and optimizations.

Your feedback shapes Inferna's future, so keep sharing ideas, bugs, and dreams. Log in on 20 December to celebrate the Inferna Birthday Event and grab the goodies.
