The Structure of ‘Discovering Aeternum’
The Discovering Aeternum series is divided into three distinct phases: Arrive, Survive, and Thrive. Each phase is meticulously crafted to guide players through their journey in Aeternum, providing essential knowledge and strategies at every step.

1. Arrive: Laying the Foundation
The first phase, Arrive, is all about grounding new players in the strange and mysterious world of Aeternum. The first two episodes, titled Arrive and Azoth, have already been released on the game’s YouTube channel. These episodes are re-releases from the original Touring Aeternum series but with enhancements that reflect the updated content and mechanics in New World: Aeternum.

In the Arrive episode, players are introduced to the world of Aeternum—a land shrouded in mystery, rich in resources, and teeming with dangers. The episode provides a comprehensive overview of the game’s setting, including its diverse environments, settlements, and the various factions that players will encounter. It’s an essential primer for those who are new to the game or need a refresher before diving into the new content.

The second episode, Azoth, delves into one of the most critical elements of New World: Azoth. This mysterious substance is central to many of the game’s mechanics, from fast travel to crafting and upgrading gear. Understanding how to  effectively use Azoth is crucial for players who want to maximize their efficiency and progress in the game. The Azoth episode breaks down its uses, how to acquire it, and strategies for managing this valuable resource.

As the Arrive phase continues, players can expect future episodes to cover additional foundational topics, such as character creation, the basics of combat, and an introduction to the game’s economy and trading systems. These episodes aim to ensure that new players are not overwhelmed by the vastness of Aeternum but are instead equipped with the knowledge they need to explore and survive.
