As with Aion’s release date, the schedule of these Preview events will be announced in coming months.

Flying is an extension to the overall combat system of Aion. Not only is it an integral part of the gaming experience, it will require both strategy and skill to use optimally. Flying will in many cases bring a player advantages over non-flying opponents, and many skills and actions are designed specifically for such situations.

PvPvE is an acronym that stands for Player versus Player versus Environment. PvPvE symbolises the constant and dynamic war that rages in the Abyss between both player factions and the Balaur, a non-playable race of brutal creatures.

There are four initial classes to choose from; Warrior, Scout, Mage and Priest. Once level 10 is reached, each class can specialise further. The class structure in Aion is created primarily with the purpose of letting a player get to know the game and the general features of his character before having to commit to a more specific path.
