The game utilizes a completely open, sandbox world offering endless freedom to explore at your own pace.

The devs have plans on holding regular test phases every month. PvP tournaments, dungeon runs, bug-hunt events.

I think the Abyss Online team have genuine ideas, goals, aspirations, but have no idea what they’re really doing – setting unrealistic goals like “releasing in April 2024,” “listening to people when they tell us to hide our past instead of owning up to it,” and much more.
Will this game ultimately release, or will they fall victim to the indie MMO curse the genre has become known for? I can’t say. I do genuinely wish them all the best, and hope this small spotlight either helps them in terms of feedback, or redirects additional interest to them as a game.
Any and all criticism and praise is equally as valuable in the development of a game your community can enjoy in my opinion. And they definitely have a long way to go.

Palia is a free-to-play MMORPG.

Palia is a very different type of MMO in so that it doesn’t have any type of combat, and is entirely PvE focused, taking the form of a life-sim, allowing players to build relationships with NPCs, build and cultivate their own land, and engage in numerous PvE activities without worrying about engaging enemies.

The game utilizes a completely open, world allowing players to explore, build and build relationships with NPCs and players.

There are no dungeons, no raids and no PvP.

Palia is one of the most unique MMORPGs I’ve come across and that opens up avenues that most games just won’t ever have access to, but at the same time, will likely also appeal to a much smaller demographic of player.

Dungeon Fighter Overkill is a free-to-play MMORPG.

It utilizes an interesting horizontal side scrolling style of gameplay not often found within the MMO genre, with flashy, highly animated skills and fast paced action combat.

The game utilizes a hub, allowing players to concurrently occupy large cities, socializing, and grouping up for content.

As this is a hub-MMO, the entirety of the game outside of existing within the hub-towns is running dungeons and raids or participating in instanced PvP.

Dungeon Fighter Overkill is one of the very few rare MMOs of its kind, providing us a truly unique, horizontal MMORPG with stunning Anime graphics, fluid action combat and a deep, complex story.

Remember of Majesty is a free-to-play MMORPG.

It utilizes what we believe to be an action combat system, along with a fully open, traversable world for players to journey across and experience fully realized in 3D.

The game utilizes what we believe to be a completely open world offering endless freedom to explore at your own pace, fight what you want, where you want.

There is confirmed to be dungeons, raid, world bosses along with open-world PvP, as part of the “Hardcore” experience.

Remember of Majesty is an interesting upcoming MMO that we know very little about at present. It is confirmed to be releasing cross-platform on PC and Mobile, and features a number of features that might ultimately lead to the game’s failure, but only time will tell.

Fractured Online is a buy-to play-MMORPG.

It utilizes a top down isometric perspective, with players navigating a large, seamless open world with their mouse, and cycling through a number of different abilities bound to their WASD keys.

At present there seem to be no dungeons, no raids but instead will feature a type of PvP. Instanced content might be added in the future, but Fractured is built to be a seamlessly accessible MMORPG.

Fractured Online is essentially a Western-developed Lost Ark. It features a top-down isometric perspective, has some decent combat, an acceptable world in terms of size, it’s severely lacking graphically but overall I had fun playing the Beta. Whether or not they can successfully launch the game is another question all together, however.

Ashfall is a free-to-play MMORPG.

It utilizes an interesting blend of third person action and third person shooter gameplay to create a unique blend of combat not typically found within the MMO genre.

It is unconfirmed at present whether there will be functional raids, but dungeons and PvP have been confirmed.

Ashfall is one of the rare third-person shooter MMORPGs on the horizon. Very few shooter-MMOs exist because they’re just not very popular. Nevertheless, it still has a niche market, one that is currently open to be tapped into. Ashfall might be exactly what this genre needs – a cross-platform PC-Mobile third-person shooter MMO, who knows.

BELLATORES is a free-to-play MMORPG.

We currently possess no in-game footage for the MMO, other than a few screenshots and concept art so we have nothing to base combat, or in-game graphics off of.

The game is supposedly going to feature a fully open world for players to explore.

It is unconfirmed whether or not there will be dungeons or raids, but there will be full, large-scale PvP wars.

BELLATORES is a grandiose MMORPG being developed by a relatively newer developer. It has the potential to be a direct competitor to Black Desert Online, but with nothing noteworthy to base this off of presently, it’s “just another upcoming MMO.”

Ares: Rise of Guardians is a free-to-play MMORPG.

It is currently unconfirmed what type of combat Ares: Rise of Guardians is going to employ. Given the type of game it is supposed to be, one would anticipate an action combat system, but right now that is only speculation.

Arthdal Chronicles is a free-to-play MMORPG.

It utilizes what looks like a type of hybrid action combat, features a stunning open world for players to explore at their leisure, a faction system and is a direct adaptation of a popular Korean TV series.

The game utilizes a seamless open world for players to explore with a faction-based PvP system, meaning there will likely be a type of open-world PvP present.

There is planned PvE content, but specifically what that content is has yet to be elaborated on.

Arthdal Chronicles is a gorgeous new upcoming hybrid action MMORPG that genuinely has the potential to be an outstanding game. It’s still in active development, and thus very little is known about the game right now but we’re very excited to be able to play it Globally this year (2022!)

Noah’s Heart is a free-to-play MMORPG.

It is unconfirmed what type of combat system the game is going to employ, but given it’s the successor to Dragon Raja, I would imagine it would utilize a type of action combat.

The game utilizes a completely open world filled with emulated seasons, weather conditions and day and night cycles.

There are dungeons and raids confirmed, but not in what form.

Noah’s Heart could be one of the largest-scale MMORPGs to release on mobile devices. Dragon Raja, its predecessor was a massive success, and this looks like it could be an even larger titan that could potentially dominate the market.
