NCSoft announced that Aion 2 will hold a user appreciation event for its first service anniversary on November 8, 2026, at the AT Yangjae Center, according to techm.kr. The Chapter 2 blueprint will be revealed at the event.

The announcement was made during an update preview broadcast on the Aion 2 official YouTube channel on October 13, 2026. The broadcast featured NCSoft business division head So In-seop and Aion 2 development PD Kim Nam-jun.

The event will allow on-site visits in addition to pre-invitations.

During the broadcast, So In-seop apologized to Korean users and said the Korean server is the main base of Aion 2's development. He promised to sequentially apply positive elements praised on the global server to the domestic server. Kim Nam-jun stated the goal is to bring improvements reflected in the global version to Korea as soon as possible.
