Avast! The war between the Vampire and Lycan Pirates is over, but the victor is nowhere to be found. Sea and shore are silent, save for the haunting voice of a creature rising eerily above the waves.

Aurelio Voltaire Returns for Friday the 13th!

Friday the 13th and Aurelio Voltaire go together like Evil Armies of Undead and Horror Movies. He is legitimately one of the most creative people we know. He is the maker of music, films, books, comics, toys and... mayhem. He first appeared in AdventureQuest Worlds back in 2009, during our first-ever in-game Friday the 13th UNLIVE event! Since then, he's appeared in all of our Friday the 13th events.

In addition to being an incredible artist, he's a downright amazing person to work with, and we're incredibly grateful for the time and energy he spent helping us with the release. This weekend, battle your undead enemies to the beat of his "The Skeleton Dance" instrumental track, released on his 2023 album "The Last Halloween Party"! 

Stay up to date with all his music, art, and news updates here and once you've finished the event, make sure you check out his Youtube series, "Gothic Homemaking with Aurelio Voltaire." On behalf of the entire AdventureQuest Worlds team, we want to thank Aurelio Voltaire for being a part of this special event! 

Sunday: Teka's New Birthday Gifts

At long last, Teka, AQWorlds graphic designer and Umbramancer, steps out of the shadows and into the twilight. Find her in the ShadowRealm this Sunday with a host of new birthday gifts for you! Crafted by her loyal companion, Aciel, she is eager to hear stories of your adventure. And if you ask nicely, she'll trade you valuable curios in return for completing certain dark tasks for her. 

Prove yourself useful by completing her first two tasks to unlock the Obsessor Captain armor and Skull Compass mace. You'll need those to accept a daily quest for Elden Rubies. Save them to craft her Obsessor Commander set items!

Stay up to date with new release plans and boosts on the Artix Calendar and see what the latest Bug Fixes and Balance Changes are in their patch notes.

PS: A fix has been rolled out to the DragonsGrasp house in AQWorlds. The Enter frame is now vislble and a color-customization room has been added.
