History
Infinite Odyssey: Shadows of Light Part 1 (EP2) hit NA on 22 April 2015 — the first major episode after Ertheia’s debut. Live’s update language shifted fully into Odyssey branding: new zones and systems sold as a continuing story rather than a single race launch. Veterans remember this stretch as the grind-and-explore season when dimensional strangers stopped being novelty alts and became part of everyday Live life.
Why it mattered
Anchors mid-2015 Live media — Odyssey UI, Shadows of Light event shots, clan progression screenshots — under a clear chapter instead of a blur between Ertheia and Helios. Essential for anyone reconstructing “what Live felt like before Classic existed.”
Lore beats
- Episode storytelling replaces one-off race marketing
- Live social calendar fills with Odyssey content drops
- Bridge between Ertheia hype and the Underground / Helios years
Key changes
- Codename EP2
- NA 22 April 2015
- Shadows of Light Part 1
- Post-Ertheia episode
