Aion: First to experience the new content on August 18th

Bad news for Aion fans, the PTS has been brought down and its database wiped, your characters and legions are now digital rubble under the NCsoft wrecking ball.

The good news is that all of the destruction, terror, and mayhem is in service to the forthcoming Assault on Balaurea expansion and its eminent appearance on the testing shard.

Beginning on August 18th, you can be among the first to experience the new content, in addition to sampling it with the significant XP and drop-rate boosts exclusive to the PTS. The expansion hits the live servers on September 7th, so be sure and read up on how to access the PTS client if you'd like an early start.
