When is the promising MMORPG Dark and Light going to be released? According to the developers, we can at least expect an early access phase in 2017.
Last autumn, it was said that the MMORPG Dark and Light was to enter early access in 2016. However, the year passed, and there was no playable version of the online role-playing game to be seen. In December, it was stated that the content for the early access version was almost ready and would start in 2017. Many fans assumed that it meant early 2017. But now, it’s March, and the MMORPG is still not playable.
Early Access Phase Starts Later
Now, Publisher Snail Games has spoken out on Facebook, stating that fine-tuning and a revision of the graphics and animations are currently taking place. Therefore, the early access phase of Dark and Light will start later this year. Whether this will affect the planned release date in the fourth quarter of 2017 for the official version of the game is currently unknown.
A sandbox with many possibilities
Dark and Light is a new remake of a sandbox MMORPG from 2006, which is now being implemented with the Unreal Engine 4. The sandbox aspect remains at the forefront. Therefore, it is up to you how you navigate your way in the vast world. Whether you want to experience adventures and defeat monsters or become a crafter who creates the best weapons is equally possible.
However, in the game world, there should be fewer players than in other MMORPGs since the survival aspect also plays a role. So far, Dark and Light sounds very interesting. We will experience how it plays during the early access phase.
