New World has revealed its August Store Showcase featuring the Corruption Hunter Bundle, a new cosmetic set designed for players who face the creeping darkness of the Corruption head-on. This bundle includes a full armor set and matching weapon skins, all themed around resilience and the grim duty of hunting down the evil that threatens Aeternum.
The Corruption Hunter Armor Set is made up of five pieces:
- Helmet: Reinforced to stand firm against the raging evil, giving wearers a boost of confidence.
- Breastplate: Crafted for endurance, built to withstand overwhelming darkness without faltering.
- Gloves: Designed for precision and grip, holding steady for those who bear the burden of the hunt.
- Legguards: Balanced and resilient to allow swift movement even in dangerous situations.
- Shoes: Made to hold firm on cursed ground, each step warning the Corruption of the hunter’s approach.
Alongside the armor, there are two weapon skins:
- Severance Longsword Skin: Veins of Corruption are restrained by ritual and vengeance, symbolizing a weapon wielded not for glory but to end what should not live.
- Bulwark Tower Shield Skin: Marked with ritual bindings, this shield represents protection and defiance against the Corruption.
Every piece in this bundle carries a clear message: it’s all about standing strong and ending the spread of Corruption in Aeternum. The set’s design hints at the ritualistic and determined nature of those who take on this dark threat. I kinda like how the gear feels purposeful, not just flashy. Who wouldn’t want to look the part when walking into such a grim fight?
Will you be suiting up to hunt the Corruption yourself? I’m curious how this new look will fit with players’ existing gear. It’s a bit of a climb to earn or buy these, but the payoff seems worth it if you want to stand out while battling evil.
