FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Karlsruhe, Germany (September 24, 2025) | Today, popular MMO publisher Gameforge proudly announces that the NosVersary Server—a brand-new, limited-time world celebrating the 18th anniversary of the beloved anime action MMORPG NosTale—is officially live! Players around the globe are invited to join the festivities commemorating nearly two decades of adventures, friendships, and epic battles.

The NosVersary Server is now open for six weeks of celebrations, featuring a free Battle Pass, daily login calendar, permanent double XP (and triple XP on special weekends), custom progression raids, and supercharged weekend events. Best of all, every adventurer who completes the Battle Pass transfer quest can bring their fully equipped character—gear, items, costumes, NosMall purchases, and more—to the permanent server of their choice at the end of the celebration.
"NosTale has always been more than a game — it's a shared journey," said Nyoka, Senior Product Manager at Gameforge. "This anniversary is both a celebration and a thank-you to our loyal community. With the NosVersary Server, we’re opening the gates to a faster, deeper adventure for everyone."

The new servers follow the release of the family edition of the Celestial Spire raid—the Celestial Spire Catacombs! Prepare for this thrilling level-80+ adventure where 8 to 12 players battle their way through all the levels with your family while surpassing increasingly harder challenges and looting increasingly mightier rewards.

The celebration doesn’t stop there. Gameforge has also launched a global fan art contest, inviting players to design future in-game items such as pets, costumes, wings, and more—anything that captures NosTale’s unique spirit and charm. The winning design will be featured in-game, and the artist will receive exclusive NosTale merchandise, including limited-edition collectibles. Fans can still submit their entries through October 15.

And the birthday fun isn’t limited to the NosVersary Server! Across all servers, players can enjoy:
 
  • An 18-day birthday login calendar
  • The return of the Collectors’ Event, where gathering letters grants a powerful buff
  • Brand-new Anniversary Wings, available in both free and premium variations
 
As NosTale enters its 18th year, the NosVersary celebration is designed to welcome back lapsed players, reward loyal veterans, and welcome newcomers into a universe filled with whimsy, depth, and charm.

NosTale’s NosVersary Server is live now and free for all players. If you haven’t tried NosTale before, this is the perfect moment to dive in! Download it for free on Windows PC via Steam today.
