New Season Progress


Lilith Games is sticking to what they said about wanting each season to be a unique and fresh experience, and as such are sticking to the season progress theme. In this season, players will once again have to build up and work towards a unique Season Progress, that will have them increasing their Season Level, and Season Equipment.

If you’re a fan of AFK Journey’s power progression, you’ll most likely love this, but it is interesting to see if Lilith Games will be able to keep players intrigued enough to keep going until the season’s end.

Season Magic Charms

Magic Charms were a feature that was introduced in the Song of Strife, and they were surely one of the more used features, as they gave a ton of power to your heroes and team overall. In the new season, Lilith Games is planning to bring back the Magic Charms, but this time better, with no randomized stats, new effects, and extra set bonuses!

A gacha game wouldn’t be complete without new heroes, would it? With the new season, Lilith Games has announced that they will be releasing three new Heroes.

  • Dunlingr
  • Nara (S-Level Graveborn Rogue)
  • Sinbad (A-Level Lightbearer Rogue)

There is currently not much information about these three, and we will unfortunately have to wait a bit more until we get official confirmation on their skills.

All in all, the Waves of Intrigue Season looks like it will bring a lot of new content to AFK Journey, and alongside the new Legend’s Return, it might just bring back some of its older players, who had decided to take a break for some time, either due to burnout or simply not having anything to do.

Waves of Intrigue may just be the breath of fresh air that AFK Journey needs, and we’re eager to see how it will perform after its release on September 19, 2024!
