MMO Wizard 101 added its biggest content update of the year with Ahmarra. Ahmarra is now available on PC, and coming soon to PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox.

Ahmarra adds an entirely new world, a mysterious island with new adventures, quests, enemies, and more.

Every magic school gains access to a new high-level spell themed around the pirate-island world. The new spells can be upgraded into two different paths. The update also raises the level cap to 190, and improves endgame loot by making boss rewards more rewarding, including guaranteed loot drops.

Plus, new aquatic creatures to fish up, as well as new Fishing Spells to catch them.

Other new additions and improvements include Mount Enchantment swapping, easier Pet Hatching, custom keybinding, balance changes for Beastmoon Beastforms, and more. See the full patch notes for a list of additions, changes, and fixes.
