[img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43953575/f829817f17fafe6873f8d0f23d35147efc222e78.jpg[/img] [b]“THE ECHOLLECTOR” Content Update[/b] is a new endgame objective for players who want more lore and new content to play through once they’ve reached the later chapters. The events of the Everwar left the Path weak, scattering chunks of the consciouscape across Aveum and creating corrupted Shatterfanes - portals to new, undiscovered areas. Jak must rid Aveum of these Shatterfanes and put a stop to whatever malevolent forces are siphoning away the Path’s power in a new boss fight. The Shatterfanes will automatically be available upon reaching Glaivegate, giving you the chance to take on this new challenge.

[b]NEW GAME+[/b] has been one of the biggest requests we’ve gotten and we’re thrilled to be able to confirm it’s coming. NG+ will not only allow you to play through the game again with most of your abilities and spells, it’ll also give you the opportunity to further upgrade your gear and take on updated fights. [list] [*] Upgrade your Epic and Legendary gear to higher levels with the Forge in NG+ [*] Rebalanced enemy health, damage, and abilities [*] Jak carries forward most spells and abilities unlocked in a previous playthrough [*] Augment spells cannot carry forward due to their unlock requirements [*] Adjustments made to experience and currency earned while playing [/list] [b]GRAND MAGNUS DIFFICULTY[/b] brings a whole new level of challenge to Aveum. Face down Sandrakk’s forces like never before in the most challenging mode yet. Every fight will be a battle for survival as you push your way through the Everwar and forge yourself into an Immortal worthy of the name. And of course, this brand-new difficulty mode is available as a new playthrough or with New Game+! Sigils Up! [i]Immortals of Aveum[/i] has been a labor of love for the team.
