It's been barely two months since Aion’s international release and there’s already a glimpse of the next major content update.NCsoft wants to make sure this game is heard loud and clear with an epic trailer featuring the upcoming additions and sieges coming to the young MMO.
Footage from the trailer reveals various visual updates that will add details, realistic lighting effects, and seasons to the various locales players will be questing through.A new underwater zone highlights a highly-welcomed swimming ability for everyone (who currently sink like a rock when in deep water), and players can now lounge about in their own purchaseable homes -- furnishings not included. Mounts will also be introduced, and you can carry mountless buddies as passengers if you're feeling generous.Of course, the meat of the game comes from all the revamped battles. The latter half of the trailer shows off the new gear and spells players can use, including new weapon types such as crossbows and whips.And why stop at traveling mounts when you can have battle mounts as well? Not just any ol’ battle mount either, but dinosaur battle mounts.Dinosaurs, people!As awesome as that may be, the most epic portion of this preview is at the finale when Aion takes a cue from Shadow of the Colossus; a couple of huge rocky titans are destroying everything in their path and are rapidly approaching a major capital city.The army is out in full force and it’s going to take every single player to help take down each towering dreadnaught.
Now, how about seeing the whole shebang in action?Sit back and enjoy a nine-minute vision of the future:
