16th Birthday Gifts
Don't miss any of our 16th Birthday Gifts
It is kind of crazy to think AdventureQuest Worlds has been updating every week for sixteen years. O_O That is a LOT of monsters mashed, quests completed, and bosses beaten. After so many victories, we know you've collected enough gear to fill several dragon hoards. So to celebrate another year of adventure, we want to show our appreciation by giving you the ability to play and store EVEN MORE! Log in to get your free gift now, and check out what new gifts and functionality are coming next:
October 4th: Free Spaces
For the last several years, we've been getting increasing numbers of players asking for more house inventory spaces. We hear you loud and clear... and that's why we've added 25 more free slots to everyone... and upped the max amount of buyable house inventory slots to 275.*
- Free bank, guild, and house inventory spaces
- Maximum buyable slots increase
- Friends list cap increase
October 11th: 500 Free AdventureCoins
Complete Cysero's quest to claim your 500 free AdventureCoins by October 31st**

Still To Come...
October 18: Double Ultra Boss Drop Boost I

October 25: Double Ultra Boss Drop Boost II

- ??? Work in progress
What About Inventory Slots?
Never fear! We didn't just forget to add them in. In the background, among making progress on AQWorlds Infinity, we've asked Captain Rhubarb and Spider to get gear loadouts ready. The server end of the project is done, and Spider's working on the client end. The feature is actively being worked on, and we are currently looking to have it go out the last week of the month (aka ??? Work in Progress).
If all goes well, it will be live this month, but I did not want to promise something that we cannot deliver on; having a 2nd week of Ultra Boss boosts would not feel great for players who don't farm them. If we can't get that out on time, the backup plan is to get everyone more inventory slots like in previous years. But ideally... we do not just have to do one of them; it would be best to have both go live the last week of the month.
* A small heads up: to make sure these free spaces and the increased max don't negatively impact anyone's game session, we're going to lower the max number of items you can have in a single room of your house (currently 200 items) down a bit.
** Quest goes rare on Friday, November 1st.
