Here’s everything you need to know about the seasonal features and game modes in AFK Journey’s Song of Strife.
AFK Journey, developed by Farlight, is an Ethereal Fantasy RPG that plunges players into the mystical world of Esperia. As you embody the legendary mage Merlin, the game unfolds a rich narrative and complex tactical battles.
With the introduction of the Song of Strife season, AFK Journey enriches its gameplay with fresh seasonal progression systems, skills, and game modes designed to enhance your strategic options and provide a dynamic play experience with each new season.
Seasonal Progression System
Magic Charm
During the Song of Strife season, players can collect Magic Charms that provide various stat bonuses and special effects. The higher the quality of the Magic Charm, the stronger the stats and effects are. However, it’s crucial to note that these charms are seasonal; they will not carry over into subsequent seasons.
Seasonal Skills
Seasonal Skills become accessible once a hero attains Season Level 51 and can be progressively upgraded as you level up your hero during the season. Your Season Level and achievements influence the enhancement of these skills in other Seasonal Modes, determining the rewards you earn at the season’s end. Each season introduces a unique set of skills to explore and master.
Seasonal Game Modes
Dura’s Trial
In Dura’s Trial, a new PvE challenge available this season, players can earn resources crucial for enhancing their Magic Charms. The trials change daily, focusing on hero attributes and offering chances to obtain charms of varying qualities. As you progress, the trials become increasingly rewarding as you can get higher-quality Magic Charms.
Supreme Arena
The Supreme Arena offers a competitive PvP experience where players can test their skills against others by climbing up the ranks. Available from Wednesday to Sunday, this arena challenges you to strategic duels across best-of-three matches. There will be special deployment tiles to turn the tide of battle, so take advantage of them.
Seasonal Mini-Games
This season introduces several mini-games that will be also available in future seasons:
- Bestial Brawl: Face off against the fierce ironjaws in the Ashen Wastes, using their charges to your advantage to clear obstacles and claim treasures.
- Treasure Quest with Hamsters: Engage in a light-hearted treasure hunt by chatting with treasure hamsters and using your Loot Detector to unearth hidden treasures.
- Raging Duel: A unique battle mechanic where accumulating Rage through specific conditions grants your team powerful buffs, adding a layer of strategic depth to each encounter. Once you max out Rage, your team will receive powerful buffs throughout the whole battle. This mechanic is only available in certain stages.
The Song of Strife season is set to be an exhilarating addition to AFK Journey, offering both new and veteran players numerous opportunities to explore, battle, and strategize.
