Many other types of system configurations will run very well with Trials of Atlantis. Although you may not meet a specified requirement with one hardware component, meeting or exceeding a requirement with another hardware component may be suitable enough for you to be able to play trials of Atlantis.

Do old areas of the world look better in the new graphics engine?

Yes, when you upgrade to Trials of Atlantis even the older regions of the world will look much better. Some of the more noticable effects seen in all regions will be fuller, more lush and life-like trees as well as an entirely new terrain texturing system that will make the ground look as detailed as the new trees. The new Atlantis zones will take advantage of the new underwater areas.

Yes, if you are a former Dark Age of Camelot player, after your purchase Trials of Atlantis, you can reactivate your account and play in the new areas with your old characters. We have not deleted any characters from the game database, so even if your account has been closed for a long time, your old characters are still accessible should you decide to reopen your account.
