New World: You Can Now Enter Crystal Cavern the Right Way

By Benjamin Paraggua Published 05/11/23 EDT

Are you trying to finish the Dearly Beloved seasonal quest in New World but got prevented somehow? Well, Amazon Game Studios finally resolved this issue in Update 1.9.3, so it's best that you download it as soon as you can.

One important part of the Dearly Beloved quest in New World will have you enter the Crystal Cavern to rescue Aidyn. However, there was an issue where you could not enter it because it was seemingly blocked by an invisible wall. The issue was so widespread that many people have complained about it.

The good news is that it is now fixed in the newly released Update 1.9.3. You can finally rescue Aidyn without the stupid invisible wall blocking you!

In addition, this patch disabled some seasonal activities that proved to be more challenging and costly than what the company intended. Here are these activities:

Craft 10 items using Poultry Thights.
Craft 10 items using Sumptuous Rabbit.
Craft 10 items using Prime Armadillo meat.
Consume 10 Tier 5 Trade Skill Consumables.
Consume 10 Tier 5 Resistance Consumables.

Amazon Game Studios added these new activities to replace the ones mentioned above:

Kill 10 enemies in Mykrguard.
Kill 10 enemies in Imperial Palace.
Kill 10 enemies in Malevolence.
Kill 10 enemies in Eternal Pools.
Kill 10 enemies in Beds of Ta-BitJet.
Kill 2 named enemies.
Kill 20 elite enemies.
