Amazon Games Studio has released New World’s latest Expedition – Barnacles & Black Powder – which includes a new Mutation set and a few notable game fixes.

In the Barnacles & Black Powder Expedition, Quest givers will be looking to offer players loot and renown for defeating the despicable Admiral Blackpowder and his dastardly crew. The new expedition also introduces 3 new Mutators:
- Icebound: Icebound features mutations that deal Ice damage, apply slow, and spawn glacial crystals with area effects.
- Oppressive: Enemies gain powerful abilities like mana drains and zones of silence, which prevent ability usage for a short period of time.
- Frenzied: This variant applies Curses to players that dodge. Curses stack up and deal damage over time. When Frenzied reaches 3 stacks, it detonates. This explosion deals additional damage to the player and leaves an elemental damage area of effect.
