AION 2 players no longer need to have pre-registered or placed the game on a Steam wishlist to receive the corresponding launch bundles. NC says anyone who creates an account and logs in before the reward window closes will qualify.
The publisher will send the items through in-game mail. That makes the login deadline only the first cutoff: recipients must also collect the message before the mail expires a week later.
Two bundles are included
The Advance: Pet Chest contains one Pagati pet and a choice of one additional pet from Papis, Silver Blade Rotan, Konutin Worker or Black Smoke Murute.
The Advance: Wishlist Chest is a supply bundle. It contains 10 bound Resurrection Spiritstones, 100 bound Life Potions and 50 bound Healing Potions. It also includes 50 each of the bound Return, Courage, Speed and Benediction scrolls.
These are the same reward groups associated with the earlier registration and wishlist milestones. The change is eligibility: the official notice extends both groups to the wider player base rather than announcing a separate third package.
The login and mail deadlines are different
NC lists the last opportunity to log in as the maintenance cutoff on December 1 at 11:30 p.m. PST, corresponding to December 2 at 9:30 a.m. CET. The notice says the reward period began after maintenance on September 30 and will run for about two months after Early Access.
Reward mail has its own expiration time: December 8 at 11:30 p.m. PST, or December 9 at 9:30 a.m. CET. Players who qualify near the end of the window should therefore retrieve the message rather than treating account eligibility as permanent delivery.
The announcement does not say the extension changes server access, maintenance timing or the game’s paid options. It is a distribution change for two named launch bundles. Players should check the official notice if NC revises either cutoff.
