Gameforge, a leading developer and publisher of free online games, today announces a major update for the popular anime side-scroller RPG, Elsword. The “Serpentium” expansion takes players deep into the Demon World, unveiling an entirely new region filled with treacherous landscapes, powerful enemies, and thrilling battles that will put their determination to the test.

This update expands the game world and immerses players deeper into Elsword’s lore, providing a richer understanding of the conflicts and historical events shaping the game’s universe.
Adventure in the Demon World: What Awaits Players in the New “Serpentium” Region
With the release of the “Serpentium” update on March 12, Elsword’s 20th region will go live, opening the gates to a world filled with secrets and dangers. Players will embark on a perilous journey through new dungeons, face technologically advanced enemies, and confront the enigmatic forces that haunt this cursed land.
Three brand-new dungeons present formidable challenges:
- Mirage City: A sprawling artificial metropolis ruled by a floating fortress, where advanced defensive systems and intricate architecture stand between players and their goal.
- Robofoundry: A mechanized stronghold where relentless autonomous warriors are produced. Players must outwit these advanced technological foes.
- Madame Corae’s Garden: A mesmerizing yet deadly domain where the mysterious Madame Corae lures the unwary into a beautiful but dangerous trap.
To enter the Serpentium area, players must complete the Epic Quest: Enter Serpentium and gain access to Basteel Base, a critical outpost serving as a base for expeditions into this perilous new region.

The Legendary Battle for the Serpentium Tower
The climax of the journey awaits players as they reach the Serpentium Tower, a fortress inhabited by mighty demons. Here, they will face their greatest trials, testing both their skills and teamwork.
Starting March 26, 2025, players can take on the Serpentium raids, which consist of two dungeons (Serpentium Tower and Concert Hall) with two phases each. This endgame challenge will push even the most experienced warriors to their limits, offering weekly rewards for those who emerge victorious.
New Equipment, Systems, and Enhancements
A brand-new armor set, Exascale armor, crafted from rare materials found in the Kingdom of the Steel Demons, brings unparalleled power to the battlefield. Players can obtain it through epic quests or crafting via NPC Haivan using Circuit Fragments.
The Serpentium Update will introduce new systems, allowing players to enhance their Exascale armor through reforging, overclocking, and circuit customization.
Alongside new content, the Serpentium update introduces numerous bug fixes and performance improvements, addressing character balance, dungeon mechanics, PvP adjustments, and UI optimizations. A complete breakdown is available in the Patch Notes and Community Update post.
Elsword is available for free on Windows PC via Steam and the official website.
