Korea and Taiwan first
Announced November 8 at NC’s 1st-anniversary festival in Seoul, Chapter 1 Part 2 “Boundary of Light and Veil” went live November 11 in Korea and Taiwan. There is no Global date for any of this: Global is still level 45 in Season 1, which ends with maintenance on December 15/16.
Level 55 and island housing
The level cap rises from 50 to 55, with a new Daevanion board, +128 points and Breakthrough to Stage 7. Housing arrives as a personal island estate: 1,000,000 Kinah for permanent ownership, about 90 pyeong (about 300 sq m) of interior, 286 decorations and 3 terrains at launch, up to 40 invited guests — and no combat stats on furniture, so it is a home, not a power purchase.
Solo Expeditions and combat rework
Solo mode comes to ALL Expeditions, alongside a reworked Urugugu Canyon, new Transcendence (Erakus Ruins / Sunken Temple of Life) and Nightmare floor V, and a combat overhaul rewarding manual skill-chaining. The update also adds the Trust system, and a free server transfer opens November 18. The roadmap continues with the Rudra Challenge on December 2, Part 2 on December 23, and the new Sanctuary raid “Ascension Fortress Erek” on January 20, 2027, plus three IP collaborations (two anime) in Q1 2027.
What it means for buyers
For Global players, there is nothing to buy and nothing to do yet — this update is Korea and Taiwan only, with no Global date announced, so treat it as a preview of what is coming. In Korea and Taiwan, the island estate costs 1,000,000 Kinah in-game, with no combat stats on furniture, so it is a cosmetic home rather than a power purchase. See the Aion 2 page for the verified sellers listed there.
