AION 2 Early Access starts September 30 for all Founder’s Pack tiers. See the exact-time status, test wipe rule, Steam reinstall step and what to watch before access opens.
No difference in access length is shown in the official pack contents: Standard, Deluxe and Ultimate all include the same five-day Advance Access. Higher tiers add other items rather than extra early days.
No. The public Scale Test carries Day 1 progress into Day 2 and then wipes everything. September 30 is a separate, persistent launch progression window.
NC says Steam testers must uninstall the separate Playtest App and download the normal AION 2 app for September 30. PURPLE users are told no additional uninstall/reinstall step is required after the test.
Dungeon party matching is region-wide. During Early Access it spans Early Access Servers in the same geographical region; after full launch it expands to both Early Access and Launch Servers in that region. Abyss PvP is more separated: during Early Access, Abyss matchmaking is between Early Access Servers, and after launch NC says servers are matched by progression/strength.
The local Server Market is available from the start of Early Access and uses Kina within your server. The Cross-Server Market is not available at Early Access or full launch; NC says it opens later once participating servers have reached a similar stage. Active Membership requirements for Market/Exchange access are covered in the monetization guide .
