- Maintenance at 5 PM today: the new patch and the full list of fixes - 25 September 2026
Hey everyone! As promised, today we are releasing another batch of game fixes. The maintenance starts at 5 PM server time and will take 1 hour 30 minutes. Right after it ends, a small gift will be waiting for you in our gift system: godsarena.online/gifts Full patch notes: Fixed the Olive Branch and other buffs working in locations where they are not allowed. Display settings have been expanded - you can now set a fixed resolution for the game window, prevent it from being resized, and adjust the FPS when the window is not in focus. HP/MP regeneration timing now matches the original: recovery ticks on whole 5-second steps and restarts after combat ends, death, teleports and PvP. Monster pursuit, reaction time and attack rate now match the original; monsters no longer hover at the edge of their range or stop attacking while chasing a moving target. Monsters now drop their pursuit when a…

- Migration maintenance tomorrow at 12:00: Olympia and Elysium move to the new platform - 20 September 2026
Hey everyone! Tomorrow at 12 PM server time we begin maintenance to migrate the Olympia and Elysium servers to the new client-server platform. The maintenance is expected to take several hours. After the maintenance you will need to update your client. We will post a separate announcement once the new client is available on Steam and in the launcher, so you have time to download the update before the servers open. The update will be large (over 1 GB), so be patient while it downloads. Once the servers are back up, you may run into errors, or the game may behave differently from how it worked before. Please report every such case on Discord: we will be making fixes promptly and updating the server and the client as issues get resolved. Once again, I strongly recommend that everyone log in to the PTS server if you have never done so. Make sure the new client works on your computer, so tha…
- The big migration: Olympia and Elysium move to the new client on September 21 - 18 September 2026
Hey everyone. We are approaching a big and important milestone: the migration from the old client-server platform to the new one. We plan to make the switch on Monday, September 21. I will announce the exact maintenance time later. The game client will be completely replaced, and you will need to download it again in full, because every single game file will be different. For those who have not been following the development of our client, let me explain why this matters and what players get from the new client: The client is built on a modern game engine, which lets it run on PC, mobile devices, in the browser, and on consoles. That gives us the ability to expand to the platforms that are convenient for you, and with them, the number of players. Already this autumn we plan to release the game on Google Play. On modern devices performance grows significantly, and the game now has in-gam…
- Maintenance today at 12:00: faction change goes live - 14 September 2026
Hey everyone! Today at 12 PM server time (in about 2.5 hours) we will run maintenance on the servers and carry out the faction change for the approved guild and individual player applications. A reminder: every application went through moderation with server balance in mind. If your application was not approved, it means the transfer of your guild or your character would not have a positive effect on the balance between the factions. Wait for another, more suitable occasion to change your faction. The maintenance will take about 10 minutes.
- Consul: tonight's cross-server test event on the PTS - 11 September 2026
Hey everyone! Today at 8 PM server time the Consul event takes place on the PTS. It is the next part of the global testing of events on our new platform. Every participant will receive 2,000 bGold on their main server after the event ends, no matter whether they ended up on the winning or the losing side. And a reminder: applications for guild and individual player migration are open: godsarena.online/guild
- Frostheim: the next cross-server test on the PTS this Saturday - 3 September 2026
Hey everyone! This Saturday at 6 PM server time we are running another cross-server event on the PTS server, and this time it is Frostheim. Every player who takes part in the event will be rewarded with 2,000 bGold, delivered to the web warehouse on their main server. Before the event we will publish a new build with a large batch of fixes, including the bugs you reported after last Saturday. We are getting very close to migrating Olympia and Elysium to the new client, and every test like this takes us another big step forward. Last Saturday, 300+ of you joined the Battle of Pindus. Can we get 500+ for Frostheim?
- Faction change is now open on Olympia and Elysium - 1 September 2026
As promised, faction change opens today on both Olympia and Elysium. Both servers currently have faction balance problems, and no one but you can solve them. This time, faction change is open in both directions, but with moderation: we will only approve the applications that have a positive effect on the faction balance. Applications are submitted by guild masters on the guild page: godsarena.online/guild You have one week to think the transfer over and submit an application.
- Above the Clouds: the new battle pass launches September 1 - 29 August 2026
Hey everyone! On September 1, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM server time, we will run maintenance and launch the new battle pass: Above the Clouds. This is a transitional battle pass: it begins on the old server and client architecture and will finish on the new one, after the autumn migration of the servers to the new platform. The battle pass that follows it will already be a different one, built on the new platform. In Above the Clouds we have added several new weekly quests, and the main prize of the season is a mount: The full list of this season's rewards: The assortment of the BP-coin shop stays unchanged this season: season statistics show high demand for every type of goods in the shop. A new costume, the Aeronaut Costume, arrives in the in-game gold shop. It supports the current focus on character damage without taking over the roles of the existing Titan and Harpy costumes (we are…
- Battle of Pindus: cross-server test event on the PTS this Saturday - 26 August 2026
Hey everyone! This Saturday (August 29) we are running a cross-server event, the Battle of Pindus, on the PTS server. The PTS now holds up-to-date copies of the player databases from both Elysium and Olympia. That means you can simply download the PTS client and log in with your own character. The PTS client is available ONLY in our launcher. If your account is a Steam account, download our launcher as well, install the PTS client, but start the game from the game folder using the gw_steam.bat file. The event takes place on Saturday at 6 PM server time. The rewards you earn during the event (bGold) will be duplicated to your main character on Olympia or Elysium within 24 hours after the event ends, delivered as bGold pouches to your web warehouse. This event is our way of testing three thingsThat the database merge between different servers works correctly. That the server holds up unde…

- GodsArena FM explained: what the radio is for, and how to win prizes on air - 13 August 2026
Hey everyone! We keep getting a lot of questions about GodsArena FM: how the radio works, what the contests are, what it is all for, and how it functions. Our goal is to build a single source of information for players, and an additional platform that helps us bring new players into the game. The radio DJs cover the latest in-game news and rumors, read the Discord chat, and answer your questions. Once we move to the new client, the YouTube stream will come alive with live coverage straight from in-game events and their most interesting spots, and any one of you could become the hero of a news story. Now, about the contests. The radio currently runs three: Word Hunt. Every 2 hours the DJs announce a secret word live on air. The first 5 people to answer correctly in the chat, in the format Server, nickname, word, receive 500 bGold. You can claim the bGold only once per day, but that is no…
- Maintenance on August 12: new stat stones and a critical hit rework - 11 August 2026
Hey everyone, friends! Tomorrow (August 12, 2026) at 12:00 server time we will run short maintenance. The work will take about 10 minutes. What is in the update Two new stat stones have been added to the game. The stones are sold by the Medal Keeper NPC in the capitals, for Medals; one stone costs 1,200 Medals. These stones let you add physical defense ignore and magic defense ignore stats to your weapons and armor. The stats can be added to rings, weapons, helmets, and gloves. Critical hit chance has been substantially reworked. Right now critical damage does not work correctly in the game: characters with 0 critical chance often land critical hits on characters with 0 Tena. This happens because the Hit parameter currently affects critical hit chance. After this update, the influence of Hit on Crit is greatly reduced, so characters with a low Crit parameter will no longer constantly la…
- Pet Transfer is live, and our radio now streams on YouTube - 31 July 2026
Hey everyone! A few great pieces of news for you this Friday. Pet Transfer is now available on the website, in your personal cabinet What it is and who it is for. We regularly get messages like "I changed my class and my pet no longer fits me" and "I got unlucky with my pet's growth, my pet is bad." This new feature is built to solve both of those. You buy a new pet egg that suits your build from the in-game shop, and then, on the website, you fully transfer the progress of your main pet (levels, Merge and Rebirth) into that new egg. Only the hidden growth is taken from the new egg; the stat bonuses from levels and rebirths are recalculated from scratch for that new growth. So by changing class you can get a pet built specifically for your goals. And if you do not like how your pet's stats turned out, you can reroll them again and again until you are happy. Every reroll runs on the real…

- Maintenance and Guild Migration at 12:00 (Server Time) - 27 July 2026
Hi everyone! In about an hour (12:00 server time) we will run a short maintenance and carry out the guild migration. A reminder: this round the migration is manually moderated. Only guilds whose move will improve the overall balance of power on the server will be migrated. If your guild is not moved after the works, it does not mean anyone made a mistake or forgot about you. It just means that, right now, moving your guild would not make the overall balance better. The works will take about 10 minutes. While we are at it, a reminder to follow our Facebook page for live news about life on the servers: facebook.com/GodsArena.online
- Faction Change Reopens: Now for Guilds - 24 July 2026
Hi everyone! We are reopening faction change. Players have had enough time to think it over, and now it is time to balance things out. This round the migration is open to guilds, on both servers and in both directions. This time I will moderate the migration personally. That means I will only approve the applications that, in my view, best serve the health of the server. How to apply: each guild master activates the migration for their guild at godsarena.online/guild. Applications are open from today until July 26. On July 27 we will run the change. Guild masters, this is your call: talk to each other and make the right moves.
- Maintenance & Update: Appearance Change, Might Counter, EXP Storage - 9 July 2026
Hi everyone! Today at 1:00 PM server time we will carry out maintenance (about 30 minutes). A game client update will be required. What's in this update: 1. Character gender and appearance change (on the website). You have been asking for this for a long time, and we have finally done it. Now you can change your character's gender, face, hairstyle and hair color. A lot of new hairstyles have been added (thanks to Witch for these). To apply the changes you need to log out of the game. One appearance change costs 1,000 gold, deducted from your website balance. 2. Faction Might counter in the Pindus event. You can now see how much stronger or weaker your faction is by Might rating. 3. New item: EXP Box Storage. At Helper Phaedra in Thebes you can combine 10 full Holy Box IV into a single EXP Box Storage, to free up your inventory.
