A new anime MMORPG has been released and a big hope for 2022 has been postponed

This week a new anime-style MMORPG was released. However, another one that was a big hope for 2022 will not be released this year after all. You can find all the important MMORPG news of the week here at MeinMMO.

The highlights of the week:

• The new anime MMORPG Tower of Fantasy was released on Thursday. It had some technical issues at launch, but there are immediate gifts at launch. If you want to start with the game, we have a tier list for you with the best characters.
• In World of Warcraft, a player has such an insane idea for maximizing his damage that Blizzard is changing WoW just for him.
• Lost Ark has been live in the West for 6 months. We spoke with expert Sywo on the half-anniversary of the game, who said: “It’s more fun than any other version.”

The controversy of the week: The big MMORPG hope Throne and Liberty was supposed to be released in 2022 and is supposedly finished. However, developer NCSoft now wants to release the game in 2023, according to rumors with Amazon as a partner.

The discussion of the week: Fans wanted to bring back the Lord of the Rings from 2007 with Echoes of Angmar, but were prevented from doing so by the publisher. Now the project has to shut down.

Tower of Fantasy also showed a new trailer for the release:
