Sieges are a way to experience PvP on a larger and more meaningful scale in MMOs and MMORPGs. Capturing a fortress is not just about overcoming another player, but achieving something as a group.
Not every MMO offers sieges. We present a selection of online games where you can build, defend, and capture castles or even cities. This list is not exhaustive.

What can you conquer in The Elder Scrolls Online? In the land of Cyrodiil, there is a constant conflict between the alliances and the players. Here, it is important to capture and defend fortresses, as well as participate in large campaigns that can last for months.
How do sieges work in ESO? Sieges in The Elder Scrolls Online require a certain tactical skill as well as teamwork.
- As a guild, it is necessary to locate and claim fortresses for yourselves
- The guild members must have reached at least level 10 to participate in PvP
- By spending alliance points, you purchase Rams, boiling oil, Traps, Catapults, and Ballistae from merchants at the main gate or in your alliance’s castles
- Now you begin the siege and try to push inside the castle
- If you manage to penetrate into the castle, you must look for the banners there
- Hold the two banners inside long enough to gain control of the castle
- As defenders, you use repair materials to maintain walls, gates, and siege weapons
What makes the sieges of The Elder Scrolls Online so interesting? Anyone looking to prove themselves in PvP and advance their alliance must visit the land of Cyrodiil. There, the story-driven ESO plays out very differently and shows a new side. This makes the sieges a welcome change.
On page 2, you fight with your guild for dominance in an MMORPG.
