AION 2 Global Gives Pre-Registration and Wishlist Rewards to Everyone Who Logs In by Dec. 1

Region: Steam/PURPLE Global, not Korea or Taiwan. Ahead of the Global launch, NC posted a “Launch Rewards” notice on the AION 2 Steam announcements page. As thanks for the community’s support, all Pre-Registration and Steam Wishlist rewards are being extended to every player who creates an account and logs in before maintenance begins on December 1. Rewards are delivered automatically via in-game mail; there is nothing to sign up for.

Reward window and deadlines

Milestone	PT	CEST/CET
Reward period begins (after maintenance ends)	September 30, 2026, 6:00 PDT	September 30, 2026, 15:00 CEST
Reward period ends (before maintenance begins, last chance to log in)	December 1, 2026, 23:30 PST	December 2, 2026, 9:30 CET
In-game mail expires (before maintenance begins)	December 8, 2026, 23:30 PST	December 9, 2026, 9:30 CET

The notice adds that rewards will be distributed for approximately two months following Early Access.

One thing to watch: the PST and CET times in NC’s table are an hour apart. 23:30 PST on December 1 is 07:30 UTC on December 2, while 9:30 CET is 08:30 UTC. The December 8/9 row has the same gap. The notice doesn’t say which one is correct, so plan around the earlier one.

What this means for Global players

It doesn’t matter whether you actually pre-registered or wishlisted the game. If you create an account and log in before the December 1 (PST) maintenance, the rewards are yours, so new players joining now qualify too. The two pets are handy on a fresh character, and the Wishlist Chest’s potions and scrolls cover a good stretch of early leveling.

The mail does expire, though: claim it before the December 8 (PST) maintenance or lose it. The notice doesn’t say whether rewards are sent per account, per character or per server, so go by what shows up in your mailbox. If you plan to transfer servers, the transfer rules require you to claim all mail on the character first, or you can’t apply.
