AFK Journey: New Season Waves of Intrigue Arrives

The much-anticipated new season of AFK Journey, titled Waves of Intrigue, has officially launched today September 19, bringing exciting updates, fresh content, and numerous rewards for players. In this article, we will delve into the key features of the season, including new game modes, seasonal perks, and exclusive items. Magister Merlin embarks on a new adventure, and this season promises to be filled with both intrigue and action.

Key Features of the Waves of Intrigue Season

1. Seasonal Rewards and Events

The Waves of Intrigue season offers players the opportunity to earn over 100 Invite Letters by participating in early-season events, completing quests, and exploring newly unlocked regions. These letters play a significant role in advancing through the game and unlocking additional content.

In addition to the Invite Letters, players who log in during the first seven days of the season can claim Epic Invite Letters and a free Select Hero Chest (Epic) through the Harbor Gifts event, accelerating their progress in the adventure.

2. Legend’s Return Event

To welcome back players who have been inactive for more than 14 days, the season introduces the Legend’s Return event. Those returning to the game will have the opportunity to earn Diamonds and additional Invite Letters to quickly catch up and rejoin the adventure.

3. New Hero Skins and Features

Throughout the Waves of Intrigue season, players can unlock exclusive new skins for Sinbad, Rowan, and Marilee by completing main quests and participating in seasonal events. Additionally, the game introduces new Season Artifacts—ten in total—that players can acquire through Story Quests, Reputation Quests, and Season Milestone Rewards.

4. Season Faction Talent System

A significant update in this season is the introduction of the Season Faction Talent system. Players can now upgrade their heroes’ Resonance Levels using Talent Orbs, unlocking powerful Faction Talents that provide strategic advantages in battle. Heroes positioned on Talent Buff Tiles will receive enhanced boosts, enriching the tactical depth of gameplay.

5. Peaks of Time

Starting ten days into the season, players can revisit and complete missed Song of Strife adventures through the Peaks of Time feature. This allows players to explore the full breadth of the season’s content, regardless of when they start playing, and ensures that no quest is permanently lost.

6. New Challenges and Modes

The Heroic Gauntlet mode, running biweekly, allows players to challenge multiple stages and earn significant rewards. Players who clear high-difficulty stages will unlock easier stages in the following rounds, providing a dynamic and scalable challenge for all players.

In addition, the Primal Lord bosses—Plague Creeper and Crazed Shellbrute—await those who venture into the new areas of Waves of Intrigue, adding a new layer of difficulty and excitement to the game.

Exploring New Regions

Players will now have the opportunity to explore the vast Scandia Isles, where boats become essential for travel. While navigating the seas, Magister Merlin may encounter floating treasure chests, hostile pirates, or mysterious vortices that can transport him to unknown destinations. These exploratory elements bring a fresh sense of adventure and unpredictability to the season.

Additionally, the new Stealth Challenge in Rustport requires players to master the art of stealth, avoiding patrols and using distraction tactics to infiltrate specific areas undetected. Meanwhile, the introduction of Alchemy offers a more strategic crafting system, where players must follow precise formulas to create powerful items.
