Eleventh Hour Games has unveiled exciting new details about the upcoming Season 3 of Last Epoch, titled "Beneath Ancient Skies." The new season brings significant class reworks, fresh gear options, and continues the game's story in the Ancient Era. This update comes shortly after Krafton's acquisition of the development studio, promising enhanced resources for future content.

Following Krafton's acquisition announcement on July 25, Eleventh Hour Games CEO Judd Cobler expressed optimism about the game's future under the new publisher. Despite ongoing controversies surrounding Krafton, development continues uninterrupted, with Season 3 scheduled to launch on August 21.

Season 3 introduces major gameplay changes, particularly for the Acolyte class. Both the Lich and Necromancer subclasses will receive comprehensive passive skill overhauls. Players can also expect new dual-wielding options, the innovative Flay skill, and balance adjustments to minion mechanics affecting both Necromancer and Primalist's Beastmaster specializations.

The update's centerpiece is the introduction of primordial gear - powerful new items that offer unique skills and bonuses. Among these are Tyrant's Skill (a relic summoning Tyrannosaur minions), Wildfire Embers (an amulet creating fire-based clones), and Legends Entwined (a versatile ring that interacts with all equipped item sets).

Quality-of-life improvements include offline cosmetic support, new Merchant's Guild tokens, enhanced unique item search functionality, and quick set filters. These changes build upon Season 2's foundation while introducing fresh mechanics to explore.
