Seasons of the Worm Cult Part 1 launches on June 2 for PC/Mac and June 18 for Xbox and PlayStation consoles and is included as part of the 2025 Content Pass. In this new storyline and zone, you must uncover and investigate the Worm Cult’s new base of operations on the tropical island of Solstice.

In Part 1, as you explore Western Solstice, you will quickly discover that the Worm Cult is far from defenseless. They’ve erected a massive arcane barrier using soul magic—the Writhing Wall—that divides the island, and for now, Eastern Solstice (and its secrets) is sealed off by this arcane edifice.

Despite being a zone divided, you will find that Western Solstice is full of challenges and rewards, including new World Bosses, Delves, a Public Dungeon, and a brand-new Trial, the Ossein Cage. There are 16 Antiquities (including three new Mythic items), four new Trial item sets (including Perfected versions), and a host of other rewards, including even more item sets, and a ton of Collectibles, from crafting motifs to pets. You’ll also receive a 10% experience boost from adventuring in Solstice all year!

Seasons of the Worm Cult Part 2 arrives in Q4 and gives you the opportunity to finally uncover just what these villains have been hiding behind the arcane barrier. Be warned, Eastern Solstice is far less welcoming than the previous territory, thanks to the Worm Cult’s malign influence.

Solstice’s second half introduces yet more challenges and rewards, with additional World Bosses, Delves, another Public Dungeon, and new rewards both exclusive to the new content and shared across the unified Solstice zone. You can expect three new overland item sets (giving Solstice six in total once Part 2 unlocks), three more Mythic items, and many more items and collectibles to earn.
