MMO's
ArcheAge
ArcheAge is an upcoming fantasy sandbox MMORPG by Korean developer, XLGames. Headed by Jake Song, also known as the “Godfather of Lineage”, ArcheAge is an ambitious project that is sure to turn the heads of anyone after the ultimate fantasy sandbox MMORPG. Players enter a world that can be shaped and changed by player interaction on a whole new level. Build houses, player villages, farms, castles and more. Terraform the landscape, plant trees and crops, all these things are possible.
The massive game world features three continents which are seamless, meaning a player can set sail on a ship from one continent and sail the entire way to the other cotinents without teleporting. Fantasy MMORPG fans can live a virtual medieval life with their own house or farm, while sandbox fans can seige castles, become an outlaw and even fight in naval battles or from the sky. This title is set for a release in late 2012 in Korea with a release for NA and EU regions to follow, things are looking like we won’t see this title until 2013.
Elder scrolls
Oh boy, this could be a disaster in the making, and probably will be. The Elder Scrolls Online is an upcoming fantasy MMORPG by Zenimax Online, based on the popular series of single-player, open-world RPGs. The game is being headed by the guy who “Ruined Dark Age of Camelot” and will allow players to explore all of Tamriel, not just one location like in previous titles. This particular MMORPG will feature hubless questing, three factions for PvP (just like DAoC) and more.
If you haven’t seen it already, check out our article, Elder Scrolls Online: What we know so far. This article has all the juicy details on what to expect from this risky project, as there is simply too much to discuss here. Elder Scrolls Online will release in 2013 for both PC and Mac, there is not talks of a console version and it isn’t very likely there will be one.
The Repopulation
This is a title that I, amongst many others, have been following closely. Deemed the last hope for Pre-CU SWG fans, this sandbox Sci-Fi MMORPG has a feature list so impressive that players from all backgrounds shouldn’t be able to hold their drool. Players take on the role of a second generation clone who’s job is to re-inhabit the world. Players can join up with one of two factions or seperate from society completely and create their own rogue faction.
MMO gamers who are looking for an intense crafting MMO that doesn’t require them to be killing machines will want to pay attention to this title as crafting is an integral part of the game. Players can build cities, run whole nations and even switch between action-combat or hotkey-based combat. There is a massive list of features, check back soon as we cover this title more intensely.
