About
New World: Aeternum is an open-world MMO released in 2021 that drops you on a supernatural island teeming with danger and opportunity. The game features a classless, real-time combat system where you can channel supernatural forces or wield traditional weapons, whether you're fighting solo or cooperating with other players. You'll explore wilderness and ruins while engaging in combat, foraging, and crafting activities across the expansive world.
The game is quite accessible from a performance standpoint, making it a solid benchmark title for budget gaming rigs. You'll need at least an entry-level GPU with a score around 9212 and a CPU scoring near 8864, along with 8 GB of RAM minimum. Most modern mid-range GPUs will handle this game comfortably at high FPS values, even at increased graphics settings, making it relatively undemanding compared to AAA titles released in recent years.
With a rating of 66/100, New World: Aeternum offers a decent experience for MMO enthusiasts and those interested in real-time combat systems. If you enjoy open-world exploration and cooperative gameplay without demanding cutting-edge hardware, this could be worth checking out.
Performance profile
Released in September 2021, New World: Aeternum targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.
RPGs like New World: Aeternum stress VRAM during long sessions — texture streaming, mods and open-world traversal inflate memory use over time. 8 GB VRAM is a practical floor; 12 GB+ is worth the headroom at 1440p and above.
Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in New World: Aeternum. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.
Storyline
For thousands of years, Aeternum has been the source of fantastical legends—and now you’ve found it. Shipwrecked and without supplies or allies, you’ll need to make your way in a dangerous world where supernatural power has changed all the rules. In such a land, your destiny is whatever you make of it. Aeternum's mysteries run as deep and dark as its history. Delve into the world and uncover the secret truth of the island and its millennia of strange inhabitants. As you explore Aeternum, you’ll discover beauty, danger, and opportunity at every turn. You'll need to use all your skills to take advantage of the island's bounty—and survive its horrors.
