Aion 2 Full Launch Date Confirmed for October 5
NC has confirmed that Aion 2 will officially launch worldwide on October 5 for PC, following a series of pre-launch tests and early access periods.
NC has officially confirmed the full launch date for the upcoming MMORPG Aion 2 during gamescom 2026. The title will become available simultaneously worldwide on Monday, October 5, for PC via Steam and Purple. The release covers regions including North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.
The announcement places the official release slightly past a previously mentioned September window. However, players who purchase the Aion 2 Founder's Pack can gain access during an early access period running from September 30 to October 4.
Ahead of the official release, NC is planning a Launch Scale Test scheduled for Thursday and Friday, September 17–18. This test aims to establish an environment similar to the actual live service to check server and infrastructure stability, while allowing users to experience the game prior to its official debut. Applications for the scale test are available through the game's Steam page.
