AION 2 launched globally on PC on October 5, 2026. To download it, use Steam or NCSOFT’s PURPLE platform, both named by NC America as global PC routes. Before installing, check that your PC meets the published requirements—especially 100 GB of available storage. NC America’s launch announcement and the official Steam announcements confirm the launch timing.
Choose where to download AION 2 on PC
NC America identifies Steam and PURPLE as the global PC platforms for AION 2. Choose the one available in your region and whose client and account flow you prefer. The available global announcement confirms both platforms but does not spell out every regional account or installer difference.
- Steam: Find AION 2 in the Steam store and use the game listing’s install control. The published information does not establish additional Steam-specific setup steps.
- PURPLE: NCSOFT’s Taiwan site documents a click-by-click install path, described below. Treat it as a Taiwan-region walkthrough; it does not confirm that the global client or account flow is identical.
For the platform announcement, see NC America’s notice. For region-specific questions, consult the official global support site.

These specifications come from AION 2 Global Support. NCSOFT Taiwan separately says initial installation needs approximately 70 GB or more while listing 100 GB of required space. That regional estimate is not a guarantee of the complete or unchanged current install footprint; use the global 100 GB availability requirement when preparing your drive. See the Taiwan download page.
