The most exciting new MMORPG, set to come to Europe in 2024, is called Throne and Liberty. It is expected to be released for Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X. NCSoft (Guild Wars 2) now presents a new 3-minute video showcasing a powerful siege golem at work. It has a vibe of “Godzilla attacks Tokyo”.
What kind of MMORPG is this and when is it coming to us?
- Throne and Liberty is one of the largest new MMORPGs from South Korea. It has been in development there for a long time and is the latest part of the major series “Lineage” – something like the WoW of South Korea.
- In South Korea, Throne and Liberty was released in December 2023. Amazon intends to bring it to Europe by the first half of 2024, but there are doubts about whether they can meet the release date. Amazon is reportedly having problems with the console version.
- The latest news about the MMORPG is that NCSoft is making efforts to place a stronger focus on PvE and is planning new dungeons here. However, today we are showing images from the PvP aspect of the game, from siege battles.
The siege golems of Throne and Liberty:

This is shown in the new video: In Throne and Liberty, players have the opportunity to transform into a siege golem and intervene in fortress battles.
Players can purchase “Golem Slates” and transform into a golem.
While in golem form, players constantly lose health and can only use their abilities. The transformation can be ended at any time.
The video mentions that there are 4 different types of golems in Throne and Liberty:
- The “Stone Crusher” is good at destroying walls and can deal high damage to structures.
- The “Battle Carrier” serves as a carrier for an attacking force and can carry allies over walls.
- The “Doom Hammer” is a ranged fighter and loves to throw lava balls at fortresses.
- The “Jump Attacker” has the Hulk jump and stuns enemies when he lands.
The English names like “Stone Crusher” are heard untranslated in the South Korean version of the video.
This is behind it: This looks like an exciting innovation in the MMORPG.
Although I can already imagine the discussion that the tank wants to play the cool “Stone Crusher,” but in the end, the guild forces him into the lame, yet surely more useful “Battle Carrier.”
Moreover, the video also shows that multiple golems can attack a castle simultaneously.
Well, I’m curious.
