AFK: New Journey Celebrates 1st Anniversary with Massive Updates and Rewards!
Hello, I'm Park Han-ryang, an influencer.
August 2024 marks the 1st anniversary of AFK: New Journey, a collectible RPG that introduced players to a captivating new world. This game, which has truly captured the essence of the 'idle collectible RPG' genre and cultivated a dedicated fanbase, is celebrating its anniversary with a host of content and rewards. This isn't just a simple anniversary event; it's a major update packed with features that enhance the overall gaming experience, making this anniversary feel like the starting point of a 'new journey'.
Up to 110 Free Summons Available! The Festival Begins
To celebrate its 1st anniversary, AFK: New Journey is giving players the chance to earn up to 110 free summons. These summons can be acquired through attendance events, mission rewards, and special shops, so consistent login and participation are key. The game's fast-paced nature should allow players to quickly build their desired hero decks.
The crucial point is that free-to-play users can also aim to strengthen their teams significantly. Given the game's mechanics, where players collect and utilize various heroes in battles, the opportunity for 110 summons is extremely valuable. Especially since some of the recently released heroes are powerful meta characters, players may be able to level up their team composition with a bit of luck.
It's been a while since I returned to the game, and it's so much fun with all the rewards!
Housing System Arriving on August 8th
On August 8th, AFK: New Journey will officially update with a new 'Estate System' feature that allows players to decorate their own spaces. This Estate System is more than just simple decoration; it allows players to construct and freely arrange various buildings for efficient development and strategic operation. Players can design and decorate their own estates to reflect their unique personality and tastes, creating their own little kingdoms. Each building has its own unique function and role, and various effects can be achieved depending on the arrangement and combination. This provides both the fun of decorating and practical benefits within the game, making it a meaningful addition beyond mere aesthetics. Players who want to capture strategy, emotion, and efficiency in their own space within the AFK universe should definitely not miss this Estate System update.

From August 1st, a 'Returning Server' feature will be added for users who have been away from the game for an extended period. This server is only available to users who have not logged in for more than 14 days, have 5 or more Legendary+ heroes, and have not participated in a return event within the last 90 days. The Returning Server is available for a limited time and can be selected from the time of login, so it is important to check it without delay.
Let's start the season fully geared up on the reward-filled Returning Server!
The auto-hunting system has been partially revamped to allow more users to enjoy seasonal content without pressure. From the point when Season 3 opens, the daily auto-hunting progress limit will be adjusted to 1800, and users who reach this progress will receive a new resource called 'Star Clusters' as a reward. Additionally, resource acquisition efficiency will be improved after reaching progress 1800, providing faster growth and a greater sense of accomplishment. Furthermore, as part of strengthening guild content, a new guild competition will open on August 26th. This guild battle will feature surprise content, strengthening the strategic elements, and will include Epic and Elite hero custom box rewards, increasing the fun of competition.
Housing System Open on August 8th
Finally, players can now collect various building materials and decorative items through gameplay, and use them to create their own unique gardens and spaces. Going beyond just the fun of decorating, players can interact with other users through housing content, and strategically plan their growth through efficient operation and placement. Create a space that reflects your taste and style, and start another journey in the world of Esperia.
