New World 2021
New World is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by Amazon Games Orange County and published by Amazon Games. It was released on September 28, 2021, after earlier delays from its planned May 2020 launch and a subsequent August 2021 release date. The game is set in the mid-seventeenth century within the fantasy land of Aeternum, which mirrors the Americas, where all players become immortal upon arrival.
Initially intended as a free-to-play experience, New World now uses a standard buy-to-play model, differing from traditional MMORPGs that typically relied on subscriptions and regular updates. The game includes microtransactions through skins and limited housing items that affect gameplay or appearance.
PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions titled New World: Aeternum launched on October 15, 2024, with updates for existing PC players. A television adaptation called "New World: The Once and Future King" aired December 10, 2024, as part of Secret Level, featuring voices from Arnold Schwarzenegger, Steven Pacey, Gabriel Luna, Arazou, Dana Haqjoo, and Carlo Rota.
Season 10 was announced as the final season in October 2025. Amazon stated it will maintain server availability through 2026, and confirmed that the game will cease operations on January 31, 2027.
