Albion Online is a free mmo game released under Free to Play. It runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, needs about 2.0 GB of disk space, and requires no account, payment or trial. On a computer, the fastest route is the PlayBound Launcher. On a phone or tablet, use the official store or site instead.
One-click install
PlayBound fetches the official release — no third-party mirrors.
Windows
Choose Install in PlayBound; we download and open Albion's official standalone installer.
Windows
Choose an install location in the Albion launcher—an SSD is strongly recommended—then let it fetch the current client.
Create or sign into an Albion account, select your region, and let the launcher finish patching before Play.
