We have an important announcement for all our dedicated players of Imperian.

After many years of adventure and excitement, Iron Realms has made the decision to transition Imperian into Legacy mode. What does this mean for you, our loyal adventurers? Simply put, the game will no longer receive active updates or daily support. It will continue to be accessible for those who wish to continue their journey in the realms we've all come to cherish. You may also choose to retire your character and move on to our other game worlds; Achaea, Aetolia, or Lusternia.

The Legacy mode ensures that Imperian will remain fully operational, allowing players to access the familiar landscapes, engage in thrilling battles, and relish in the rich lore that has captivated so many over the years. While new content and features may no longer be introduced, the vast world will endure, for those who wish to continue. We understand the emotional attachment many have formed with their characters and the friendships forged within the game, and we want to honor those experiences by keeping Imperian's virtual realms alive for as long as there is interest in exploring them. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to every player who has contributed to making Imperian a cherished part of the Iron Realms family, and we hope that you will continue to find joy and wonder in the legacy that remains.
