How to Download/Preload Aion 2 Client

Aion 2 has been released, with preloading starting on November 16 and the official launch on November 18. However, from account registration to client download, the official team has imposed certain restrictions. Many players have reported being unable to download the Korean/Taiwan Aion 2 client or access the game. This guide will help you completely resolve this issue.

Why Can't I Download/Preload Aion 2?

Since Aion 2 is initially launched only in South Korea and Taiwan, global servers won’t arrive until at least mid-2026. This means you can only play by registering an account in these two regions. More importantly, you must use an account from these regions to download Aion 2.
