As New World Aeternum pulls us deeper into its evolving world with Season 10: Nighthaven, It's a perfect moment to gear up for the shadows ahead. If you're plotting your progression, consider bookmarking MMOJUGG for the latest insights—it's a handy hub—and take a peek at our New World Shop for Gold Coins, Trophies, Matrix, and more to fuel your journey without the extra hassle.
New World Aeternum's Season 10, titled Nighthaven, transports players to an enigmatic new zone shrouded in mystery: an isolated land of haunting woods, towering castles, and bizarre inhabitants where man and beast blur into nightmarish forms.
This season's narrative, "The Tear of Gaea," kicks off in the wake of Elysian Wilds' chaos, tasking adventurers with hunting a lost divine artifact amid treacherous alliances and crumbling ruins. Expect vertical exploration in catacombs and castles, where rewards stem from bold delves rather than scripted quests.
Gameplay gets a major refresh too. The level cap climbs to 70, gear score tops out at 800 (with PvP scaling to 775), and endgame progression evolves with Perk Charms—socketable mods for gems, defenses, offenses, and skills pulled from pinnacle drops.
Set bonuses make their debut as ultra-rare perks from raids like the new 10-player Isle of Night or the roguelike Catacombs mode, letting you mix builds across gear pieces for that perfect synergy. Umbral Shards overhaul gear upgrades with a capped wallet and weekly limits, ditching the old gypsum kiln for smoother scaling. Weapons see dual scaling tiers (S for top-tier efficiency), trinkets gain baseline stats, and perks get a "stat squash" to kill must-haves, promoting diverse playstyles—from dodging healers to crit-stacking berserkers.
PvP heats up with a gothic 20v20 OPR map, The Tower of Calomel, packed with jump pads, mines, and multi-level chaos, plus balanced healer matchmaking in Arenas and CTF.
A limited-time CTF Neutral Flag Event runs October 24–27, spawning a wild-card flag for bonus points. And tying it all together? The Season Pass reward tracks, free for all and premium for 20,000 Marks of Fortune, packed with currencies, cosmetics, and grind-boosters to keep you pushing through Nighthaven's gloom.
Whether you're free-to-play or going all-in, these tracks reward steady progression—retroactive if you snag premium mid-season.
The tracks span 100 levels, dishing out a mix of practical currencies (like Faction Tokens and Marks of Fortune), consumables, emotes, and flashy transmogs. Early tiers lean utilitarian for quick ramps, while later ones tempt with artifacts and mounts. Premium adds depth with exclusive skins and extras, but the free path holds its own for dedicated grinders. Let's dissect it range by range, spotlighting must-grabs.

Kicking off modestly, these entry levels stock your inventory without overwhelming you—ideal for easing into Nighthaven's eerie vibes. On the free track, expect a Welcome Pack, 500 Coins for vendor runs, a Seasons Refining Box for mats, dual Flower Food Gifts, the Rocket Firework Emote Permit for some flair, five Seasons Elemental Gifts, Castle Aquamarine Dye, a Box of Warding, a Basic Expedition Chest for loot, and a Combat Box.
Premium elevates it with a Season EXP Booster to speed early gains, 3,000 Coins, 20 Vials of Suspended Azoth for crafting fuel, a Premium Food Chest, a Transmog Token for cosmetic swaps, five Premium Elemental Chests, Angelic Satin Premium Dye, five Territory Standing Boosters, Gypsum Orbs, and the Scarlet Dilation Longsword Weapon Skin—perfect if you're slashing through foes with sword-and-shield setups.
Nothing game-breaking, but that early transmog token feels like a cheeky nod to style-savvy players.

The S10 Hatchet Artifact at level 20—it's a free power spike for melee builds delving Nighthaven's depths.
Yes, the exclusive Foxy Mount caps the Premium Track at level 100, adding a cunning companion to your roster.
Currencies like Faction Tokens and Azoth Salt fuel PvP tracks and upgrades, while transmogs and emotes enhance your look in modes like the roguelike Catacombs.
Absolutely—both tracks drop hundreds across tiers (e.g., 500–1,000 per batch), stacking with seasonal activities for quicker Premium unlocks.
