The WildStar site has been updated with a preview of the Redmoon Rising dungeon that will be heading into the game on August 17th. The preview gives a nice stack of lore that includes what can be called nothing less than space pirates headed up by the risen captain, Ish’amel. Other characters of note include Swabbie Ski’li, Robomination, the Redmoon Engineers, and Mordechai Redmoon.

WildStar servers will be brought down today to bring the Heroes Evolved Update into the game. Heroes Evolved brings a number of nifty improvements and features into the game including instant level 50 characters, multi-queuing, cross faction instances, Chua Warriors, Aurin Engineers, race / gender swapping, Path Master and account-wide currencies.

The WildStar site has been updated with a big new (and exciting) post by Chad Moore that lays out the first details about the Heroes Evolved update that has now landed on the PTR. Heroes Evolved is going to bring some big, big and very welcome changes to WildStar.

Carbine has announced that Character Boosts will be coming to WildStar beginning with the next update to the PTR. When Heroes Evolved hits PTR, players will be able to check out the zero to 50 level boost that will come complete with full gear and consumables, a race-specific mount and Platinum to get things rolling.

Carbine has published a brief but interesting post on the Wildstar site that reveals how much more fun it is for players to roam the game in groups. During the ‘Nexus with Friends’ event, players who group up and complete multiplayer PvE events can earn double Renown. This boon to Renown gains can be earned in expeditions, adventures and dungeons.

After the recent WildStar DevConnect, the team took away one particular area where players would like to see more improvement: Growing alts. As a result, Carbine is hoping to make WildStar become more alt-friendly through a number of changes coming to account-wide systems.

WildStar is one of the most well-rounded and feature complete theme park MMORPGs in years. Love it or dismiss it, there’s no arguing that it’s had a rocky road since launch. Despite critical praise, a loyal and even rabid (or jabbit?) fanbase, Carbine’s MMORPG hasn’t been able to really keep up a decent population. But that could change today, as WildStar hits Steam. Will Nexus be saved by Valve’s storefront the same way TERA and other MMOs have been?

Carbine has sent word that WildStar has officially, and at last, launched on Steam. Players will have all available content including the recently released Vault of the Archon.

It’s Official, Carbine Studios WildStar is launching on Steam June 9th! Read on for the full details.

WildStar announces a new verification for your IP address today. Set up as a safety measure before you enter the Nexus. This will help ensure that all players are well protected.
