Island Empires Season 3: New Realms Await

Season 3 brings new biomes, volcanic islands, a revamped war system, and the introduction of Island Alliances.

Season 3 of Island Empires is our biggest update yet. After months of development and community feedback, we're proud to launch a slate of features that fundamentally deepen the Island Empires experience.

Volcanic Islands A new biome has emerged from the depths of the sky: volcanic islands, towering pillars of obsidian and basalt surrounded by rivers of lava. These dangerous territories are rich in rare minerals and offer unique building opportunities for daring empires.

Island Alliances Form official alliances with other islands. Share access to chests, coordinate defenses, and divide the spoils of war. Alliances introduce a new diplomatic layer to island politics.

Revamped War System Wars now begin with a formal declaration and a 24-hour preparation window. Both sides can fortify, recruit, and strategize before the battle commences. After a war concludes, there's a 72-hour peace treaty.

Ancient Relics Rare artifact drops now appear when a major empire is defeated. Relics grant powerful passive bonuses to your island — but they also make you a bigger target.

Join us in game at play.choicecraft.xyz to experience Season 3 today.
