Mounts
July 22, 2026 at 02:09 AM
Created Mounts page covering summoning, Stable registration, companion interaction, and the named demo mount list
Mounts are the traversal layer in Embers of the Uncrowned. The player receives their first mount as a reward for finishing the prologue, so no part of the campaign is spent on foot by necessity, and further mounts arrive through quests, challenges, and events rather than through a single grind. Nineteen mounts were available across the Steam Next Fest demo.
Action | Detail |
|---|---|
Summon and dismiss | Press Z to mount or dismount. The mount can also be summoned from its HUD icon. |
Restricted zones | Certain areas block mounting entirely. NEXON has not published the list of restricted zones. |
Companion behaviour | Riding temporarily unsummons the active Companion. The companion returns automatically once the player dismounts. |
Registration | Acquired mounts are registered at the Stable in the settlement, where assigned Followers manage them and the player switches between them. |
Duplicates | Receiving a mount already owned does not add a second copy to the mount collection. |
The Stable is one of the seven building types the player can construct in the settlement. Followers assigned to it handle registration and switching, which ties the traversal system into the same lord-and-retainers loop as gear enhancement at the Forge and elixir research at the Magic Laboratory. A player who never invests in the Stable still rides; a player who does gets an organised collection.
Eleven of the nineteen demo mounts were named in NEXON event listings. They are cosmetic variants rather than a stat ladder, and no speed, stamina, or combat figures have been published for any of them. All demo rewards were reset before launch, so the list below records what appeared rather than what a player currently owns.
Mount | How It Appeared in the Demo |
|---|---|
Crimson Sulfur Spring Sentinel | Day 1 key reward, Harbinger of Vengeance daily challenge event. |
Forgotten Knight's Warhorse | Day 2 key reward, Harbinger of Vengeance. |
Golden Armored Black Lion | Day 3 key reward, Harbinger of Vengeance. |
Veritas Flame Chariot | Cumulative reward at 15 completed daily challenges. |
Red-Eyed Iron Wolf | Day 2 attendance reward, Daily Check-In event. |
Platinum-Armored Great Owl | Day 3 attendance reward, Daily Check-In event. |
Golden Guardian Elephant | Day 4 attendance reward, Daily Check-In event. |
Guardian of Frostfel | Day 5 attendance reward, Daily Check-In event. |
Wandering Ancient Dragon | Top-five Realm ranking reward, Defender of the Spring event. |
Swamp-Heart Wyvern | Ranks 6 to 15 Realm ranking reward, Defender of the Spring event. |
Mireheart Wyvern | Day 5 compensation reward for the in-game event display fault. |
A twelfth mount, the Cloudfur Cottonsloth, was offered through a wishlist campaign run before the demo opened rather than earned inside it.
Mounts sit on the cosmetic side of the monetization line NEXON has drawn. The team has committed that nothing sold will affect character stats, and every demo mount was awarded for playing rather than paying. How mounts are priced or bundled at launch has not been announced.
