The 90s: The Backstreet Boys were on the radio, Li-La-Launebär was on TV and the Internet was still in its infancy. While many of the games released at that time have long been forgotten, there is one Europe MMORPG that has not only survived but has continued to develop since its release in 1997: Tibia.
Despite its 27 years of age, Tibia still impresses with its constant updates and remains extremely popular. The development team Cipsoft from Regensburg, which is behind this long-running game, recently released another important update that includes a feature that has been requested for years.
This is what the big summer update for Tibia contains
The summer update brings a number of new features and improvements that many veterans have been looking forward to.
Among other things, a Quick loot function introduced, which allows you to pick up items in the immediate vicinity of the character with just one click. The management of inventory items has also been improved by the Quick sort function made considerably easier.
For adventurous Tibians there is now the Soulpit: A survival arena awaits you here, where you must defend yourself against waves of monsters. Those who manage to defeat the cruel creatures will be rewarded with permanent bonuses.

The summer update also brings two new events In Sweet Dreams you travel to the magical Candia, a land that literally flows with milk and honey, but is plagued by a dark threat. Your task is to restore this paradise to its original, carefree state and save the colorful carnival.
At the same time, Rise of Podzilla will see players battle the returning Dr. Marrow and his terrifying creation, the giant plant Podzilla. This repeatable boss battle will be a tough challenge for even the most experienced players.
The last major change is the introduction of the Fragment Workshop. This new mechanic allows you to upgrade your gems’ modifications from level 1 to level 4 to maximize their strength. The necessary fragments can be obtained by destroying uncovered gems or by dismantling uncovered gems.
