Aion Classic Opens Character Creation And Name Reservation Ahead Of Next Week’s Launch

If you’ve been looking forward to playing Aion as it was when it launched in 2009, then you’ll probably be happy to know that the Aion Classic servers are now open for name reservation and character creation. NC is also running a character creation contest with various prizes are up for grabs for the most stylish, heroic, demonic, and wacky characters.

“The new service for the vaunted MMORPG Aion provides a fresh start as the game originally was when it launched in the Americas back in 2009, with some additional quality of life improvements. Players new and old can take flight to explore the massive, unique realm of the god Aion, hunt and venture on quests, or take a side in the battle between light and dark and fight other players.

Aion Classic will see the return of some of the games early, iconic dungeons, and only the original four character classes will be available to players (each with their two original subclasses). Keeping with the ethos of classic MMORPG experiences, the player progression in Aion Classic will be moderately paced, to increase opportunities for players to explore the world of the Asmodians and the Elyos.”

The game itself is slated to launch on June 23 in North and South America and will be free-to-play with an optional sub and battle . Founder’s packs are also available on the official site if you’re interested.
