New World: Aeternum brings back Siege of Sulfur event

Amazon Games has announced the return of a beloved in-game event for New World: Aeternum. The Siege of Sulfur event will take place from February 4, 2025 to February 24, 2025. Players will have the chance to defend Sandwurm eggs from waves of Sulfur Elementals in a challenge where strategy and teamwork are essential! See more information on the official blog.

Dunewalker Mage carts broke down while transporting sandwurm eggs, and although the Mages have created protective shields around the eggs, they can only hold out for so long. Brave adventurers can form a party with 10+ players (recommended player level is 60+) and head to locations across Brightwood, Ebonscale Reach, Edengrove, Mourningdale and Brimstone Sands to help protect the precious cargo.

During the limited-time event, players can earn a variety of rewards including skins, a Sandwurm Egg Housing Item, Obsidian Gypsum and gear scaled to 700 and 710 Gear Score. There’s no limit to how many daily standard rewards brave players can earn, and the more eggs defended, the greater the spoils!
