Albion Online Unveils Rogue Frontier Update: New Smuggler Faction Added

Albion Online has kicked off 2025 with a thrilling update named Rogue Frontier, embracing the theme of living on the edge.

The Smugglers are the epitome of rebellion and nonconformity, having grown tired of the Royal Continent's stringent regulations. They've established themselves in the lawless wilds, creating hidden hideouts known as Smuggler's Dens. These dens serve as bases where you can store your loot, engage in illicit activities, and access essential services like banks, repair stations, and travel planners. The Smugglers' Network, a new trading system, connects the Outlands in unprecedented ways, allowing you to move goods without the usual taxes imposed by the Royal Continent, albeit at a cost to the Smugglers themselves.

The Smugglers now have their own Faction, offering missions to prove your allegiance. You might find yourself tracking down stolen Smuggler Crates from ambushed wagons or rescuing captured Smugglers from the Royal Guards. Completing these tasks earns you Smuggler's Coins, which you can use to climb the ranks within their ranks.

Let’s Look Beyond the Smuggler Action

The Rogue Frontier Update doesn't stop at the Smugglers. It introduces several long-awaited features to enhance your Albion Online experience. The new Bank Overview feature allows you to track where your items are stored across the game world, eliminating the hassle of remembering where you stashed that rare loot.

For PvP enthusiasts, Kill Trophies have been added, enabling you to immortalize your most memorable battles. The Albion Journal now includes a Creatures category, challenging you to document the diverse beasts that roam the wilds.

Additionally, three new Crystal Weapons have been introduced, tailored for explorers, traders, and fighters alike. To dive into all these new features, grab Albion Online from the Google Play Store and experience the Rogue Frontier update firsthand.
