New World Wiki

Each character has a level that determines its abilities and unlocks features.

XP[]

The amount of experience or XP is an indication of how much a player has done in New World. XP can be earned by finding lore pages, visiting Points of Interest, completing quests or missions, and defeating mobs. After a certain amount of XP a player will level up. Certain Leveling Rewards are also gained as player increases their level.

Leveling Rewards[]

As a character gains levels, certain rewards are unlocked. See below for a list.

To view Leveling Rewards in game, open the Character screen (Default: K), select Attributes, and then View Leveling Rewards on the bottom left.
