Free Trial October 14th - Call to Arms:
On Friday, October 14th after server maintenance until the server maintenance of Monday, October 24th, Darkfall: Rise of Agon will be free to play for everyone. New players who wish to try Darkfall for the first time or players interested in trying out some of the new changes will be able to do so during this free period. We would like to call on our veterans to provide assistance and take in new players who try the game and help show them what the game has to offer. We plan to host events during this time and hope to see both new and old faces out on the battlefield! Stay tuned for more information later this week.

You may have noticed that the website has been going through some changes lately, and we finished adding in some of the new pages this afternoon. You can visit our new Screenshots section to find in-game images and shots taken during Beta, or find our Videos page for all of the current and future Darkfall: Rise of Agon videos. We also made some changes to our homepage, updated information on many other pages, and added more options for navigation.
