NCsoft is celebrating Aion's Second Anniversary with all sorts of in-game celebrations! If you'd like to jump back into the game and participate in the party, all accounts in good standing have now been reactivated through Oct. 2 at 8 a.m. PDT. Here's the list of events:

• Ascension Festival Event: All of Atreia gathers to remember the ascension of the first human Daevas, and to praise Aion's blessings. Collect Ascension Energy while adventuring throughout Atreia, and trade it in for costumes, hats, and gift boxes through October 26.
• Increased XP and Drop Rates: Get more experience and loot from monsters through October 5.    
• For War and Glory AP Event: Increases the amount of AP gained from defeating monsters in the Abyss and Silentera Canyon, and reduces the amount of AP lost from dying in Player versus Player combat in the Abyss and Silentera Canyon through September 28.
• Behind Enemy Lines Rifting Event: Removes the defensive buffs in Heiron and Beluslan through October 5.
• Picking Up the Past Event: Collect Fossils by defeating monsters and bosses, and trade those Fossils in for clothing, medals, and gift boxes through October 5.

NCsoft has also announced that the Aion 2.7 update will hit the Public Test Server on October 13 and go live on October 19. It will introduce two new Crucible Coliseum PvP arenas: the Arena of Discipline will feature 1v1 deathmatches, while the Arena of Chaos will support free-for-all bouts on a grand scale. The patch will also feature a 48-person instanced boss fight in Padmarashka’s Cave.
