The wait is over—World Ascension Tier 3 is here!

We’ve poured our hearts into this update, and we’re incredibly excited to finally share it with you. Whether you’ve been adventuring with us every day, are returning after a long break, or are discovering IEH2 for the first time—welcome!

A Familiar World. A Whole New Adventure.

What if you could experience the entire IEH2 journey again—with new powers, different rules, and a clock that keeps you on your toes?

That’s the adventure waiting for you in Tier 3 World Ascension (WA3), IEH2’s new roguelike endgame.

Step into a parallel world and build powerful combinations of Relics. Reshape the rules with Fractures, take on increasingly demanding Ordeals, and make every second count as your run approaches its final countdown.

Each run brings new choices and new strategies. Discover a Relic combination that changes your approach, try a different path, and see how far you can go!

Your journey doesn’t end when the timer reaches zero. Earn Heart Stones and Spirit Essence to unlock lasting upgrades and strengthen your Relics between runs. Complete Accomplishments to unlock more ways to carry progress forward and automate your next adventure.

If you enjoyed Super Dungeon’s roguelike elements, WA3 brings that spirit of discovery to the entire IEH2 journey.

Been away for a while? Your next adventure is waiting.

How to Unlock WA3

Your path to WA3 begins at Town Rank 5, where the Ultimate Trial against Ringold — The Golden Wizard becomes available.

Defeat Ringold to unlock Tier 3 World Ascension. Prepare to face a battle that takes you through the present, past, and future!

WA3 is an endgame feature, so new adventurers will work toward it as they progress. If you’re just starting out, IEH2 is free to play, with a whole world of Heroes, equipment, quests, and upgrades to discover along the way.
