IndigoWare has reset every character in Dragona Fireborne and opened a fresh round of the free to play fantasy MMORPG open alpha on Steam. The wipe took place on Friday November 6 at 21:00 Brazil time, with servers offline for about an hour before reopening on equal terms for veterans and newcomers. The new round keeps the boosted alpha rates players asked for and starts a new Hall of Fame race that records the first players to hit each milestone.
Quick facts: Game: Dragona Fireborne. Developer: IndigoWare. Platform: Windows PC through Steam. Model: free to play with a cosmetic only Cash Shop. Reset date: November 6 at 21:00 Brazil time with a gradual rollout in other countries. Rates: double EXP, double drops, eight times gold, plus level gifts. Languages: English, Portuguese for Brazil, Filipino, Traditional Chinese, and Indonesian.
Alpha rates stay boosted for the new round
The new round keeps the Open Alpha settings that players asked to keep. Characters earn double EXP and double drops alongside eight times the normal gold, and level gifts reward heroes as they grow. A new Hall of Fame race starts at the same moment, so the first players to reach each milestone in the fresh round are recorded on the official site. The structure rewards fast leveling without locking out late arrivals, since every account starts from level 1 at the same time.
The move follows a familiar path for persistent online games on Valve storefront, a road also walked by ArcheAge Chronicles as it locked servers ahead of its Steam early access window. For players who enjoy testing MMOs early, IndigoWare is running a busy season, since its fellow IndigoWare MMORPG Legend of Edda recently opened its Android beta with PC cross-play.
What resets and what stays
The reset clears characters and everything tied to them. According to the official announcement, levels, items, gold, mail, guilds, friends lists, and achievement progress all return to zero. Accounts themselves stay intact, and so does everything players paid for with real money. Cash bought on Steam, Premium days, the premium Battle Pass, Steam achievements, and the Hall of Fame records from the first round all carry over. Cash that was spent on items removed by the reset is returned automatically, so paying testers keep what they paid for even as their characters start over.
IndigoWare chief executive RavenheartZ said a fresh round means nobody starts behind, adding that new players can join the race from day one while everyone who has tested the game keeps what they paid for. The message frames the wipe as a fairness reset rather than a punishment, which matters for an alpha community that has already invested weeks of testing time.
Four races, eight classes, and dragon forms
Dragona Fireborne builds its identity around dragon transformation, with partial and full dragon forms unique to each class in Magic, Rare, and Unique grades. The roster covers four races and eight classes. Humans field the Gunner and Sniper, Kali field the Guardian and Assassin, Eldin field the Ranger and Magician, and Catcha field the Shaman and Scout. Guilds, PvP, and Castle Siege play for control of the castles of Bartan gives the endgame a territorial focus, while weekend events such as Happy Time, the Golden Bell quiz, the Puzzle Challenge, field invasions, and the Battle of Celebration keep the calendar full.
Two systems aim to remove common MMO friction. Dungeon bots of any class can fill out a party without taking loot, so solo players are never stuck waiting for a group. The Cash Shop sells only looks such as outfits, pets, and mounts, and every mount shares the same speed with no stat bonuses, which keeps paid options cosmetic in practice rather than only in name.
How to join the open alpha
Getting into the new round takes three steps. First, create a free account on the official Dragona registration page. Next, install the game from the Dragona Fireborne Steam page. Then log in once the servers return, about an hour after the reset starts. The game is free to play on Windows through Steam with a cosmetic only Cash Shop, and it supports English, Portuguese for Brazil, Filipino, Traditional Chinese, and Indonesian. Players looking for news, guild recruitment, and reset updates can also join the official Discord server, while patch notes and Hall of Fame standings appear on the official Dragona website.
When does the new Dragona Fireborne alpha round start
The character reset began on Friday November 6 at 21:00 Brazil time, with servers offline for about an hour. The rollout opens gradually for other countries on the following days, so players outside Brazil should watch the official site and Discord for their regional start time.
What carries over after the character reset
Accounts, Cash bought on Steam, Premium days, the premium Battle Pass, Steam achievements, and first round Hall of Fame records all carry over. Characters, levels, items, gold, mail, guilds, friends, and achievement progress reset. Cash spent on items removed by the reset is returned automatically.
Which classes can you play in Dragona Fireborne
