There are MMORPGs that rely on traditional classes, and there are online role-playing games where you develop your hero freely based on skills. In the upcoming MMORPG A:IR – Ascent: Infinite Realms, the classes offer a unique feature.
What classes are there? In total, you can choose from five classes when creating your hero:
- Warlord – This class fights at the front line and holds the enemies at bay with its untamed strength.
- Assassin – This killer attacks from the shadows and causes devastating damage.
- Elementalist – They master the power of the elements to tactically eliminate opponents.
- Mystic – The healers support their group in battles.
- Gunslinger – The ranged fighter is quick and keeps enemies at a distance.

What is special about these classes: While in many MMORPGs each class has a fixed role, you can play your hero in A:IR in multiple ways.
- The Warlord, for example, is not defined as a tank but can also dive into the fray and deal significant damage.
- The Mystic doesn’t have to be just the healer of the group but can also actively intervene in the events.
- The Assassin fights from the shadows, but can also be deployed as a fast fighter at the front.
The developers of the MMORPG A:IR – Ascent Infinite Realm are currently still a bit tight-lipped about a detailed description of the classes and what exactly they can do. However, they want heroes to not be tied to a fixed play style but to be able to act flexibly. Moreover, each class can be male or female.
An uncertain release
When will A:IR be released? Currently, it is not yet determined when we can play the MMORPG here in our country. A beta was planned for 2018 but had to be postponed. There is currently no date for when the testing phase will begin.
