Posted on: 27 Mar 2024

Ramen VR’s MMO Zenith has been through a transformation of late. Previously called Zenith: The Last City, you’ll now find it on the Meta Quest, Steam and PSVR 2 as Zenith: Nexus. Furthermore, it now has an F2P mode called Zenith: Infinite Realms to help boost player numbers. If you’ve been enjoying your time in Zenith: Nexus there’s more good news with its season 2 about to launch.

Titled Season 2: Frostrealm, this fresh batch of content for Infinite Realms has a new biome, a new boss, a new element for gesture magic, new cosmetics, and more. At present, Ramen VR hasn’t gone into detail regarding these new additions other than to release a short teaser trailer. As you’d expect, Frostrealm is an icy landscape full of snow-covered mountains and deep crevasses.

Season 2: Frostrealm is expected to arrive in the next few days, possibly as early as tomorrow. The studio’s current release window is between 28th March to 3rd April 2024.

Like any game that uses seasonal content, the arrival of Frostrealm signals the end of the current season. As Ramen VR details in a blog post, this means several things for Zenith: Nexus players.

  • Character Level and Skill Tree (and Accrued Skill Points) will reset.
  • Characters retain all Zen, Dust, and unlocked / purchased cosmetic items.
  • Previously acquired gear items will be automatically converted into dust.
  • For all “Unique” gear items acquired during the previous Season, characters will get to keep them as cosmetic items.
  • Characters will start with the default Starter Gear.
  • Characters that reached Level 10 or higher in the previous Season will gain a “Season Rank”, indicating how many past Seasons the character participated in. More details on this next week!
  • Characters will gain a “Season Level Prestige” indicating their character level in the previous season. In other words, each Character will get its own “Season Level Prestige”
    • Level 0-9 = Novice
    • Level 10 – 30 = Bronze
    • Level 31 – 50 = Silver
    • Level 51 – 75 = Gold
    • Level 76 – 99 = Diamond
    • Level 100 = Legendary

Zenith: Nexus is available for Meta Quest, PCVR headsets on Steam and PSVR 2.
