Housing in New World is a significant feature that allows players to own homes in various settlements across Aeternum. These homes are semi-instanced, meaning multiple players can own the same house but manage their own version of it. Owning a house provides several benefits, including fast travel, additional storage, and the ability to place trophies that offer global buffs.

House Tiers

There are four tiers of houses in New World, each with different costs and benefits:

Tier Cost Fast Travel Cooldown Max Storage Chests Max Pets Max Lights Required Territory Standing
Tier 1 5,000 Gold 4 hours 1 5 4 Level 10
Tier 2 10,000 Gold 3 hours 2 6 6 Level 15
Tier 3 15,000 Gold 2.5 hours 3 7 8 Level 20
Tier 4 20,000 Gold 2 hours 4 8 10 Level 20
 

Purchasing a House

To purchase a house, you need to meet certain requirements:

  • Level Requirements: You must be at least level 15 to buy your first house, level 35 for your second, and level 55 for your third.

  • Territory Standing: You need to achieve a specific territory standing level, which varies by house tier.

  • First-Time Homebuyer Discount: Your first house purchase receives a 5,000 gold discount.

  • In the world of New World, acquiring homes in different settlements is made easier with the use of new world coins. These coins are crucial for purchasing homes, which come with benefits such as additional storage space and the ability to fast travel. While buying a house requires meeting certain level and territory standing requirements, the financial aspect is key, as it involves spending a significant amount of gold. Players often focus on accumulating enough gold to upgrade their homes or purchase new properties, which can provide enhanced game benefits and personalization options.
