The Easter Egg hunt has commenced! Easter Egg Nests will be scattered throughout the overworld for you to find. Double click the eggs to try opening them for fun surprises and goodies!

Collect Fabled Carrots to spend at the Easter Vendor who has been seen hopping around the Paws Stables & Farm, just south-west of Britain. They will also buy some of the items you may get from the eggs in exchange for more Fabled Carrots.

The Egg Hunt will be live until April 26th and we will try our best to do some planned and/or spontaneous events throughout the week.

Happy Easter!

Something is amiss, a new maze has appeared in the middle of Hedge Maze! Perhaps you should hop around and see what you can find out. Note: Any existing spawns inside Hedge Maze are unavailable during this time, for the event. Also, click-to-move is now disabled while inside of Hedge Maze.

Unfortunately, there was an issue that forces us to roll back the world save to the last server restart, about 1 hour since the time of this post. Sorry for the inconvenience, we'll be returning online soon though. Thanks for your patience.

Just a reminder, anytime we post a deadline or a start time for something, it is always subject to change and you should expect there to be delays, always, but hope for the best. Our team consists of people from all over the globe, which may cause delays, and we are volunteering our free time, so we do our best within our means to meet deadlines.

For week-long events there is no specific time we will deploy and active the activities. Unfortunately Discord forces us to pick a specific start time when creating Events in Discord, and so usually we'll pick 9am UTC the day that we plan to start the activities. That doesn't guarantee that 9am UTC or any other time will be when the activities start, as we will make announcements within a few hours of the activities starting.

For week-long holiday activities you are not expected to be there at the time that the activities begin. Participation is welcome throughout the entire week, and this time is allowed for those that may not be around on the day of the holiday being celebrated.

Thanks everyone for your patience and support.

We recently combined in-game help requests with feedback reports, so when you send a help request it will go into the same stream as the rest of the feedback. We've also updated the Discord Support Threads channel, adding the ability for you to create new support threads on your own, if you require assistance. It's always best to report issues in-game when possible, but if you do need more help please see the instructions in #support-threads to start a ticket. We'll do our best to reply to tickets as quickly as possible. Thanks!

To celebrate Easter, we will be hosting an Egg Hunt throughout Britannia! Find eggs and break them open and collect Fabled Carrots (or other surprises), which can be spent at the Easter Vendor in exchange for some neat gifts! We hope you have time to log in and participate and have some fun. See you there! See the details of this event: https://discord.gg/CuwaP9sbep?event=963864006546841680

Thanks to WtF Dragon from Ultima Codex for checking us out and spreading the word, we appreciate you!

We've published a Public Board on Trello showing some of the things we're aware of, working on, and considering. Check it out at https://trello.com/b/571SiY7d

We're excited to announce that Hoax has joined the team! Hoax, as some of you know, has recently contributed to the rebranding efforts of our project as well as the amazing new video trailer! Hoax will be helping with more video related tasks, Unity asset design and more! Please give Hoax a warm welcome to the team and thanks for offering to share your free time with us! <3

Recently some members of the community have started an advertising campaign for the project. Thanks to those of you that have spent time on or donated towards that campaign!

We have, however, asked those involved to allow the team to control the ad campaigns. As such, the additional Patreon page that was created by the community will cease to operate.

We will begin funding more advertising, as we have done in the past and have planned for the future, using the existing Patreon pledges. If you wish to contribute more for advertising you may edit your existing pledge, but it may not be required at this point in time.

Thanks again to all of you for your continued contributions and for your enthusiasm & passion for the project. <3

Maintenance is completed earlier than expected and the server is coming online now. Thank you again for your patience.

The server will remain offline during the next maintenance window for up to an hour while maintenance tasks are conducted. Thank you for your patience.

A new video has been released that was created by Hoax in cooperation with staff and players. Check it out on the front page of our website or at https://youtu.be/PP2lW0DpE3g

Thanks to Hoax and Transcendence for organizing and creating the video, and to beekel for the fantastic music! Thanks to everyone that contributed, your time and effort are appreciated so much!

The server is back online and ready for play! Thanks for your patience and see you in-game!

Server is offline again for a short time while we continue investigating the cause of today's crash or hang-ups, thanks for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience! Check back shortly

About a week ago we mentioned that a new teammate would be joining us, and today is the day! We would like to introduce Cultivate, they are joining us to fulfill Game Master duties like player support, events moderating and possibly more things as they grow into their role on the team. Please give them a warm welcome! Welcome aboard Cultivate

Greetings Citizens,

We would like to film some staged events to create a promotional trailer for Shards of Britannia. With the help and expertise of Hoax, we also require as many players as we can get online at this time.

We hope this video will show a lot of what our amazing community server has to offer! So we would love to see you all at this event!

Before the event players will be put into groups and assigned positions. For example, some players will be fishing on Britain Bridge, some will be in factions fighting, etc.

We need those interested to fill up the positions in this document before the event starts and please join us in Discord: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jJ9n8OFsCPFQaNI5EIz_LDUgypHnYmwI/edit

The last thing planned during the event is to have everyone fight the Hydra.

This event is scheduled for 11:30pm UTC on 2/18, hope to see you there!

The server is coming back online now with the latest patch applied. Thanks for your patience!

The server is offline for approximately 15 minutes while we apply the latest patch. Please see the Patch Notes for details. We will post again when the server is coming back online.

Make sure to log in today to receive some Pink Champagne (per character) and Valentine's Day card with Rose (per account) to give to your special someone today. <3 The handout will be available until the daily restart at 9am UTC Feb 15th.
