Live · Alpha RunningAlpha Test Phase
The first blades have been drawn. A small group of pioneers enters Velkaris, testing every system, reporting every fracture in the steel. Whoever is here now is not only helping write the game — they are forging it.

Next MilestoneOfficial Launch
Velkaris opens its gates to everyone. The first free-to-play world cycle begins — with all classes, all races, all mechanics openly on the table. Whoever always wanted to be there from hour one: now is the time.
Ongoing · Until End of 2026
In the ForgeVisual Rework of Equipment
WWhile the first worlds begin to fill, we reignite the forges once more. Existing items receive reworked graphics, new item families gain their own visual identities — piece by piece, steel by steel.

PlannedPremium World
Alongside the classic free-to-play worlds, the first premium world opens. No diamond purchases for equipment, no pay-to-win — only a fair premium status that costs the same for every player. Pure pay-to-play for those seeking a completely balanced experience.

Planned · Major UpdateMounts
Velkaris gains movement. Capture your first mount in the wilderness, tame it, breed entire bloodlines, and compete in races against other players. Mounts provide their own stat bonuses and noticeably shorten the return time of your missions — whoever rides returns home sooner.
- Capture mounts across the five regions
- Breeding and inheritance across generations
- Training and individual leveling
- Races with dedicated rankings
- Stat bonuses for the rider
- Accelerated mission return times

PlannedWave of New Worlds
With the mounts update, we open fresh worlds. Whoever has been waiting for a clean restart will find it here — in the saddle instead of on foot. The perfect time for a comeback or for building a new clan from nothing.
Mid 2027
Planned · Major UpdateBattlepets
A second class of companions enters the stage. Battlepets are smaller and more cunning than mounts — capture them, tame them, train them, and send them into battles against the battlepets of other players. Dedicated arenas, dedicated rankings, and an entirely new school of strategy.
- Capture in all regions
- Training and skill specialization
- Breeding and inheritance
- Dedicated battlepet fights and leagues
End 2027
Planned · Major ReleaseClan System 2.0
The largest update of the year. True clan territories enter Velkaris. Fortresses become territories, clans conquer regions, hold them — or lose them again. Diplomacy becomes geography, war becomes cartography, and every clan war leaves visible scars upon the land.
- Conquerable territories across the world
- Territorial bonuses for ruling clans
- Siege and defense mechanics
- Dedicated world map of power distribution
