Along with offering a new start in the world of Albion, the new server will offer much faster connection speeds and optimized event times for players throughout the region. While the game will remain free to play on both servers, purchasable Founder Packs offer early access to the Albion East server, full access to the closed beta for the server in February, protection for existing character and guild names, and numerous valuable in-game items including Gold (the game's premium currency), Premium (the game's optional subscription), and exclusive limited-time Founder Vanity Items.

Features of the "Albion East" (Asia Pacific) server:
- A new and untouched version of the game, where all players start as equals and can claim their own piece of Albion;
- A game world that is fully separate and independent from the existing "Albion West" server;
- Greatly improved connection speeds and ping for the whole Asia-Pacific region;
- Timings of game and server events (territory battles, Crystal League, Faction Warfare, maintenance, etc.) that are optimized for the region;
- Founders can participate in the closed beta and Beta Guild Season prior to server launch, with accelerated Fame progression, and gain early access to the full server launch, as well as reserving existing character and guild names.

About Albion Online
Albion Online is a sandbox MMORPG from Sandbox Interactive, set in the medieval fantasy world of Albion.

Thanks to a "you are what you wear" system free from typical class restrictions, a skilled archer can instantly become a powerful mage, allowing players to define their own roles within the game world. Whether PvE, PvP or guild vs guild, every action in the game has a meaning… as well as consequences, as PvP battles in the danger zones of the game world are a "winner takes all" affair.
