Titans of Time is a 3D MMORPG that runs in your web browser, and now it runs in a VR headset too. There is nothing to install: if your browser supports WebXR, a VR button appears next to the fullscreen button, and one click puts you inside the game. If you do not have a headset, nothing changes at all.

What you need

• A PC VR headset (SteamVR headsets such as the Valve Index, or a Meta Quest through Quest Link or Virtual Desktop) with Chrome or Edge on the PC.
• Or a standalone headset’s own browser, such as the Meta Quest Browser.
• A free Titans of Time account. Log in, enter the world and press the VR button.

On a PC, Chrome may reload the page the first time you press VR, to move the game onto your headset’s graphics card. Press it again and you are in.

You are your character

The world is at your character’s scale and your eyes are at your character’s eye height, so a dragon looks like a dragon. You face the way your character walks, and you look around by turning your head.

Controls

• Left stick: run and strafe. Right stick: turn.
• X, Y, A and B: your first four abilities.
• Trigger: select whatever you point at, with the same cursor the mouse shows, from the sword over enemies to the NPC’s own mark.
• Right grip: next target. Left grip: Loot All when tapped, mount or dismount when held.
• Stick clicks: autorun (left) and jump (right). Hold one for half a second to show or hide the UI (left) or the chat (right).

Every game window works in VR. Your unit frames, action bars, chat, minimap and windows hang in front of you as curved screens, and a controller pointed at them works like a mouse: hover for tooltips, trigger to click and drag, grip to right-click and the right stick to scroll.

Chat in VR

Hold the right stick click, or point at the chat bar and pull the trigger, and an on-screen keyboard appears, with a microphone key for voice typing where the browser supports it. A PC keyboard works too.

The VR tab in Settings

The new VR tab in the Settings window explains the controls and lets you set things up the way you like: show or hide the UI, spread it further from the centre, make it bigger or smaller, move it closer or further away, and change how fast the stick turns you. Even with the UI hidden, the things you need still show: windows you open, loot, notices, your cast bar and the fishing reel.

Tell us how it went

VR is an extra for players who happen to own a headset, and the game is still built for a screen first. If you try it, tell us on Discord which headset you used, what felt good and what did not.

Gear is the reason to run a temple twice, so this update gave it a lot of attention. Temple armor now comes in sets, the Hell Pit and Abaddon pay what they should for how hard they are, there is something worth chasing at every level, and dungeon loot you do not need is no longer stuck in your bags.

Armor sets with set bonuses

If you have played classic MMOs you know how this works. Temple armor now belongs to sets, one for each armor type (plate, leather and cloth) in each temple, and wearing pieces of one set gives you bonuses on top of the items’ own stats:

• 2 pieces: +20% of what a normal item of the set’s level gives, in the set’s three main stats.
• One piece short of the full set: the same again.
• The full set: the set’s proc.

The procs, by armor type:

• Plate, Bulwark: when you are hit, a 10% chance to raise Shield Wall, at most once every 30 seconds.
• Leather, Bloodletting: an 8% chance on hit to make your target bleed.
• Cloth, Mind Flare: an 8% chance on hit to strike with Mental Agony.
• Cloth for healers, Renewal: a 10% chance on a heal to put Spiritual Rejuvenation on the player you healed.

Procs cast at your own rank for your level, so they grow with you. The tooltip shows a set the way you would expect: its pieces, the ones you wear lit up, and each bonus lit once you wear enough pieces.

There are 18 sets across six temples, so every stage of the game has some: the Temple of Syrinx (level 15), the Fallen Temple (30-35), The Crypt (85), Sky Sanctuary (100), the Blood Temple (175) and the Hell Pit (225). The smaller two-piece sets give their bonus and proc together. Gear you already own counts: we turned existing temple gear into sets, so if you already wear two pieces of one, the bonus is already yours. Nothing was taken away. Every change is a bonus on top.

The Hell Pit now drops level 225 gear

The Hell Pit is far harder than the Blood Temple, yet it paid level 150 gear next to the Blood Temple’s 175. Players called it out on Discord, and they were right. Every Hell Pit drop is now level 225, and so are the rewards of its quest, Running with the Devil. Copies you already owned were upgraded in place.

Abaddon and the first legendary weapons

Abaddon, at the bottom of the Hell Pit, now drops level 300 gear: a blue piece every kill (legs, gloves or boots), a 5% chance at a purple weapon, and, about once in a thousand kills, a legendary weapon. There is one legendary for each role, and they are the first items in the game with a gold legendary name. All of it binds when equipped.

New gear where there was none

We mapped the best item for every class, slot and level against what players actually wear, and found holes: some level ranges had no rare gloves, boots, belts or trinkets at all. So:

• 47 new rare drops on 17 temple bosses and elites that dropped no gear before, including Tezcacoatl, the Wicked Ranger, the Crypt’s Death Knights, Dragotha, the Hell Master, and elites in Sky Sanctuary and the Hell Pit.
• 41 new world drops in Hellish Wastes, Blood Lands, Desert* and Randi Marsh, for the levels that had nothing.
• New world boss gear: Verdanthos at level 70, Cruorath at 150 and Malgaroth at 225.

Trade your dungeon loot

Temple and world boss gear now binds when equipped instead of when picked up. Until someone wears it, you can trade it, mail it, sell it on the auction house or put it in your legion vault. Got a drop for another class? Sell it or give it to a friend who needs it. Once a copy is worn, it stays with that character. Gear lent out from a legion vault goes back to the vault when it is returned, gems and all.

Gems can come out

Meterona in Hallengard, who sells gems, can now take a gem out of your gear and put it back in your bags. It costs $500 for a small stone and a lot more for the best ones, so think before you socket. Socketing over a gem still destroys the old one, so this is the way to keep it.

Back in 2023, when Blood Lands went live, we signed off with “The temple is coming next!” It took longer than planned, but the Blood Temple is finally open, and it is the biggest dungeon we have built. It was the card in the In Progress column of our development roadmap, and now it is done.

What is the Blood Temple?

The Blood Temple is Blood Lands’ dungeon and the home of the Red Covenant, the blood cult behind Cruorath, the world boss of Blood Lands. It comes in two parts for players of level 150 and up: a maze of corridors packed with more than 300 cultists, brutes and worse, and below it the Blood Chamber, a causeway running out into a lake of blood. Bring a full party.

The Red Covenant

Ten kinds of cultist hold the maze, from level 160 to 175: Covenant Binders and Hemomancers casting from the back, Bloodletters and Bloodsworn Wardens with blades, Covenant Inquisitors in black and gold, and the results of the cult’s experiments: Blood Abominations, Gorged Brutes and Vein Devourers, spiders the size of a man. All of it is the work of the Covenant’s leader, a warlock named Magis.

Two bosses on the way down

High Inquisitor Vaelor brands a player with the Mark of the Heretic. A few seconds later the mark goes off, and everyone standing near the branded player loses a big chunk of health, so spread out. Near the end of the fight he enrages for good.

The Gorged One, at the head of the cult’s chapel, sweeps the players around it with Gorge and heals itself from the damage it deals, so keep the healing steady and the damage high.

Finding the way down

The way to the Blood Chamber is hidden. Four cult lamps stand far apart in the maze, and each one can be lit. Light all four, and the great demon statue on the temple’s west side slides aside, the blood drains away, and the stairs down are open. The temple remembers it for your run: leave, reload or come back later and the lamps still burn.

Magis, the Great Blood Lord

Magis waits on his throne at the end of the causeway, and he is a proper final boss:

• Covenant Bloodpriests come in waves and shield him while they live. Kill them first.
• Ward Shift: every 30 seconds his ward lets only weapons or only spells through, and whichever it lets through hits him harder. Watch which one he has up.
• Blood Geysers boil up under players, and fire, blood hail and lightning storms land in circles on the floor. Step out of the circles.
• A Bat Swarm chases one player. Keep moving and the bites miss.
• From half health his brood joins the fight.
• At 75%, 50% and 25% he opens a Void Rift: a black triangle under the party. Get out of it before the void tendrils rise and drag down anyone still inside.

Every hit in the fight can be avoided or answered. When Magis falls, a wormhole opens in front of his throne and takes you back to Blood Lands.

Quests and loot

Artemis in Blood Lands has a six-quest chain for the temple, starting at level 150. The temple’s gear is level 175: helms from Vaelor, legs from the Gorged One, and from Magis a chest or cloak, a weapon (with a 5% chance of a purple) and a trinket. Together with the gloves, belts and boots from Artemis’s quests they form armor sets with set bonuses.

The ordinary cultists drop gold, potions and crimson trinkets you can sell, and very rarely one of three new recipes: Sanguine Elixir, Covenant Heartblood and Blood Pudding, each better than anything else at its level. Like all temple gear now, Blood Temple loot binds when equipped, so you can trade or sell what you do not need.

Some evenings you want to fight a dragon. Some evenings you want to sit by a lake and fish. Fishing in Titans of Time used to be a click and a wait. Now it is a proper mini-game you can relax with, plus a few surprises for the players who take it seriously. It started with a player’s post on our Discord and grew from there.

Find the fish

Fishing spots sparkle on the water, so you can see where the fish are. The more fish a cast there can reach, the stronger the sparkle, and a gold sparkle means a rare fish. Click the sparkle to cast, or tap it on a phone or tablet. Every area with water has fish, the icy and bloody ones too, and temples have fishing spots of their own with rarer fish.

Reel them in

Cast, and a few seconds later a fish bites. The reel meter pops up on its own: hold to reel in and let go to give it slack, keeping the needle in the green until the catch bar fills. Do nothing and the fish gets away. Fish below your level go easy on you, so new players can fish in peace. Rarer fish fight harder, fish above your level harder still, and the toughest catches need real Fishing skill.

Every fish you land gives you three chances to raise your skill and one to three fish. Keep the needle in the green from start to finish for a perfect reel: the catch doubles and the fish comes in heavier.

Sizes, a Fishing Log and treasure

• Every catch has a size, and your new Fishing Log keeps a record of what you have landed.
• The Hall of Fame has a Biggest Catches board, plus new tabs for every profession: top skill, fish caught, meals cooked, herbs gathered and potions made.
• About one catch in fifty hooks a Waterlogged Crate with gold, and sometimes gear from the area.
• Characters fish with a real rod and real fishing animations, and you can see other players’ lines in the water.

Rare fish and Well Fed

Every level range has a rare gold fish, from the Golden Koi at level 10 to the Phoenix Koi at level 200. Each one cooks into a Well Fed dish that gives you more max health, mana, armor or resist for 30 minutes, and it stacks with your potions.

The Great Whale

Out on the Undying Sea swims the Great Whale, and nobody lands it alone. It takes at least two players reeling together on the same meter, and your Fishing skills add up to widen the green. While your line is on it, it batters your ship’s hull. Land it and the catch is shared by how much each player helped.

For the truly dedicated: keep the whole crew in the green from the moment it tires until it is landed, with enough skill on the lines, and it is a perfect whaling. That pays double and unlocks the Golden Whale emblem for your ship’s sail. It is hard. That is the point.

Cooking, Alchemy and herbs with no gaps

Cooking and Alchemy now have recipes every 5 levels from 1 to 200: a dish for every fish (with Fluffy Pancakes at 35 and a Whale Feast at 200), stronger potions, two-stat elixirs, hour-long flasks and the Celestial Vial. Herbs grow in every area with monsters, temples included, and every herb can be traded, sent, sold on the auction house and kept in your vault.

Herbs and quest items on the ground now have a soft sparkle over them, so you can find them in tall grass, and a click on the sparkle picks them up. Your skill rises the classic way: things far below your skill stop teaching you, and the Crafting window shows your chance of a skill-up for every recipe.

World bosses have arrived in Titans of Time. Five huge raid bosses now spawn in the open world of our free 3D browser MMORPG, and when one wakes up, the whole server hears about it. There is no sign-up and no raid group to organise in advance: show up, hit it, heal someone, and you are part of the fight.

When and where they spawn

Each boss lives in its own zone and comes back about two days after it dies. Chat warns everyone online 10, 5 and 2 minutes before it spawns, so there is time to get there. From the first warning until a while after the boss dies, PvP is switched off in its zone, so the fight is about the boss and not about getting ganked on the way. Duels still work.

Meet the bosses

Anubarath, level 20 (Desert)

The lowest level boss, so newer players get a world boss of their own. He seals players inside sarcophagi that the rest of the raid has to break open, calls up Sand Scorpions, and whips up a sandstorm once he drops to half health.

Verdanthos, level 72 (Emerald Field)

The emerald dragon weighs your heart. Above half health you get a damage buff; below it, he puts you to sleep. At half health the whole field sinks into the Emerald Dream. He drops his own level 70 gear, with a 5% chance at a purple weapon.

Morfos, level 100 (Astari Forest*)

The Hollow King raises skeleton guards, marks a player who has to run away from the group before the mark bursts, and drains the raid to heal himself.

Cruorath, level 150 (Blood Lands)

The High Priestess of Blood. Her acolytes come in waves and shield her while any of them live, so kill them first. Swarms of Blood Spawnlings pour out and swell the longer they stand in her blood rain, she binds pairs of players who must stay close to each other, and she turns raiders into Blood Effigies that the raid has to destroy to set them free.

Malgaroth, level 225 (Hellish Wastes)

The Warden of the Damned is the hardest of the five, built for a raid of strong high level players. He is a hell knight three times the size of the Hell Masters around him. His Hellblade lands hard on his tank, he raises the Risen Damned, and every 15 seconds he calls a meteor down on a player: a rune circle marks the spot, and you have a few seconds to get out of it. From half health the sky over his arena burns with hellfire. He drops level 225 helms, a caster cloak, a ring and weapons.

How the fights work

• Anyone can join at any level. Land 10 hits or heals and the kill counts for you.
• A kill pays twice the experience of a normal kill for your level.
• Inside a boss’s raid area you can heal and buff anyone fighting it, not only your party, and party buffs fill empty spots with nearby raiders.
• Bosses enrage more often as their health drops.
• Every boss has its own music, and what it is about to do shows up as a boss emote in the top banner and your chat, so you know what is coming.
• Nothing a boss does is unavoidable. Big hits are marked with circles you can step out of, or can be answered by your healers.

You can see the leash

Pull a boss too far from home and it resets. That used to happen without warning. Now a pulsing red line on the ground shows how far it can go, a faint red wall rises as you or the boss get close to it, and a countdown tells you how long you have to bring it back: a boss that crosses the line fights on for 6 more seconds before it resets.

Loot that is fair to everyone

• The loot window opens for everyone in the roll, even players who died in the fight, and you can roll from anywhere in the zone.
• Need is only offered on gear you can wear, and you can Need a boss chest’s gear if your level is anywhere from half to double the item’s level. Outside that, you can still Greed.
• Ties are rerolled between the tied players only, and every win is announced to the server.
• World boss gear binds when equipped, so an item you won but cannot use can be traded or sold on the auction house until someone wears it.

It has been quiet on this blog since March, but it has not been quiet in the game. Since our last post, Titans of Time, our free 3D browser MMORPG, has had its biggest run of updates in years: five world bosses, the Blood Temple dungeon, a fishing mini-game, six new ships, VR support, a new engine version, almost 300 new spell effects and a long list of quality of life changes. Most of them started as suggestions from players on Discord.

Here is the short version. The big ones get their own posts over the next few weeks.

World bosses roam the open world

Five world bosses now spawn in the open world, from level 20 to level 225: Anubarath in the Desert, Verdanthos in Emerald Field, Morfos in Astari Forest*, Cruorath in Blood Lands and Malgaroth in Hellish Wastes. Chat warns everyone 10, 5 and 2 minutes before one appears, anyone can join the fight, and each boss drops its own gear. Meet them in World Bosses Have Arrived.

The Blood Temple is open

When Blood Lands launched in 2023 we promised its temple was coming next. It took a while, but the Blood Temple is open: a maze held by the Red Covenant cult, two bosses on the way down, and Magis, the Great Blood Lord, waiting in a chamber under a lake of blood. It is for level 150 and up, with level 175 loot and a six-quest chain from Artemis. That is one card on our roadmap moved to done.

Better endgame gear

Temple armor now comes in sets with set bonuses, the Hell Pit drops level 225 gear, and Abaddon drops level 300 gear, including very rare legendary weapons. 47 new rare drops fill the levels where some slots had nothing at all. Temple and world boss gear now binds when equipped, so you can trade it or sell it on the auction house until someone wears it.

Fishing is a real game now

Sparkles on the water show where the fish are, and every bite starts a reel meter you keep in the green until the catch is yours. Fish come in sizes, your catches go in a Fishing Log, rare fish cook into Well Fed dishes and about one catch in fifty hooks a crate of treasure. Out on the Undying Sea, the Great Whale takes a crew of players reeling together. Cooking and Alchemy now have recipes every 5 levels up to 200.

Six ships and your banner on the sail

The marina sells six ships, from a $500 Rowboat to the $1,000,000 War Vessel, each with its own model. Paint your legion banner or your profile picture on your main sail and everyone at sea sees it.

Play it in VR

Got a VR headset? Titans of Time now runs in VR right in the browser: a PC headset through Chrome or Edge, or a Meta Quest’s own browser. The controllers move, cast, target and loot, and every game window works by pointing. Without a headset nothing changes.

A better looking, better sounding world

The game moved to a new version of its Three.js engine this spring. Since then: almost 300 new spell and world effects, one simple Shadows setting from Off to Ultra with much faster shadows, smoother loading with no more freezes when other players appear, wormhole portals that show where they lead, footsteps that match the ground under you, a soundscape for every zone and new weapon hit sounds.

Quality of life and combat

• Full key bindings in a new Controls tab, with mouse buttons, the wheel and Shift, Ctrl and Alt.
• /say chat with speech bubbles, a Combat tab in chat and a combat log you can scroll back.
• Seven hearths to call home, and a Way Back for five minutes after you use your Hearth Scroll.
• Buff timers, cooldown numbers, party colours on the minimap, inventory groups and search, and Sell All for stacks.
• Spells are learned automatically and for free as you level.
• Classic MMO rules for mana regeneration, leaving combat and group loot, much faster resting at high levels, and area attacks that hit up to 10 enemies.
• The auction house tells you when your item sells, when you win and when you are outbid.

What is next

Our development roadmap on Trello shows what we are working on, including the new customizable character models and Heroic Temples. Titans of Time is in Early Access, and a lot of what you see above started as a player’s idea, so keep them coming.
