What is happening now
Aion 2 is a cross-platform role-playing game launching on PC and mobile devices this November. The game expands on the franchise with adventure-focused gameplay across Windows, iOS, and Android. Following its initial release in South Korea, the global launch will incorporate quality-of-life improvements that arrived post-launch in that region, bringing the Western version closer to feature parity with its Korean counterpart. However, the game will not support crossplay between platforms at launch, meaning players on PC and mobile will operate in separate ecosystems. This decision represents a notable limitation for those hoping for unified multiplayer connectivity across the title's various versions.
