Moreover, participants have the opportunity to delve into the eagerly awaited Eternaland, an original customizable space enabling the construction of varied structures, exploration of territories, and resolution of puzzles. Additionally, heeding feedback from players in the prior Beta, a completely new PVP season premieres in this imminent trial.
