Yesterday we published a new Update to the game. Notice the difference? And no, this is not Round 2.

Please do not leak what we are planing to launch soon.

Yes.

Round 2

🏝️ THE TRIALS UPDATE ⚔️ World bosses now cap every player at 33% of their health. Your hits, your skills, your pet and your guardians all count against that share. They need a crew now. 🎯 Extraction Runs start with 2 players instead of 3, and every item chance inside a run is 10% higher than the same roll anywhere else. 💀 The Abyssal Trials give you 3 lives. The 4th death ends your run unless you take the one time buy back for 15,000 $Islands. 🐉 A full wipe restarts the map with every regular enemy back, but bosses you already killed stay dead. 👑 3 new gacha hats and 3 new character makeovers. The previous twelve are retired for good and never drop again. 🔸 Every Mythic drop chance cut in half. Combining 3 Epics: 10% to 5%. Upgrade materials drop 15% less often. 💬 Everything that used to say "burn" now says spend. Same costs, same odds. Soon more info regarding that. Bring a crew.

8 skins have rotated out of the Gacha forever. Only 77 copies exist. Across the entire game. 👑 Golden Crown: 3 copies. 💀 Cursed Skeleton: 6. 🧛 Vampire Lord: 6. 🪖 Viking Helm: 6. 😈 Demon Horns: 9. 🕊️ Feathered Seraph: 11. 🧥 Navy Longcoat: 16. ⚓ Bicorne Hat: 20. 36 wallets hold them all. 10 are sitting on the marketplace right now. Once those sell, the only way to get one is convincing an owner to let go.

To keep the economy healthy, we rebalanced how gathering works. Every player now has access to two new Effect Skills: Lumberjack and Miner which can be accessed through the quests. Level them up to deal more damage to trees and resource nodes, unlock powerful gathering bonuses, and significantly improve your material farming over time. We also introduced a new marketplace fee system that rewards long term holders. The less you hold, the higher your selling fee. Sellers with no $Islands now pay a 30% marketplace fee, while holders gradually unlock lower rates. Own 5,000,000 $Islands and your fee drops to just 5%. Hold more. Pay less.

Three days ago, we removed a rule from Islands. Before that, selling on the player market required a Market License. Only 542 players ever held one. Everyone else could only buy. On Saturday evening, we removed the license. Now, any hero above level 10 can sell. License veterans keep their bonus listing slots. What happened next (72 hours): • 6,001 new listings • 1,097 trades • 139 sellers, 93 buyers • $1,480.48 in volume And as always, it ends at the same place: This morning at 06:55 UTC, the treasury burned 5,657,500 $Islands in a single transaction. 11.87% of all $Islands that will ever exist. Fully on-chain. Fully public. Same weekend, teleporters arrived. So far, exactly one player built pad exists. A player named Steak paid 250 diamonds and 25,000 gold for it. Each island can hold only one. The fast travel map will be drawn by players. Right now, it has two dots.

You do not need to be level 60 to raid on the Islands. The Shallow Trials take heroes from level 5. Same lobby at Bram, same party tools, a real multi-map dungeon sized for early heroes. Clearing it guarantees a gear roll, and the boss can drop a Tier 3 pet egg. Your first raid story starts way earlier than you think. i

I can’t prove it, but they’re planning something.

PSA: tagging a world boss once earns you nothing on the Islands. Boss loot pays by damage share, in four tiers. Two percent of its health gets you in the door. Thirty percent makes you rich: guaranteed diamond, gear that can roll Mythic, runes. The War Ledger shows your tier live, mid-fight. One hit is a donation.

🚨 Market License removed! From level 10, everyone can sell. Burned a Market License? Claim 5 permanent bonus slots at the Marketplace. Also live: ⚡ Island Teleporters 📜 0.45% Teleport Scroll drops 🛡️ 15-min raid reconnects 👾 30% fewer Starter Isle enemies Full Changelog at: islands.games/docs/changelog

Most players have never opened the Economy tab in the market window. It shows the whole game live: total trade volume, the top traders, how much of every resource actually exists, where it all gets spent, and how wealth is spread across the server. The players who read it before pricing a listing are not guessing.
