For those who enjoy very fast-paced and action-packed battles in the MMORPG Elyon (formerly AIR: Ascent Infinite Realm), the latest gameplay videos of the game should be viewed.
What do the videos show? Included is a look at the melee combat of the MMORPG Elyon, as well as the range combat being presented. The videos demonstrate what you can expect from the clashes and how the battles unfold in-game:
A very fast MMORPG
What can be seen from the videos? Elyon plays extremely fast according to the combat in the gameplay videos. The previous mix of tab-targeting and action from the AIR days has been revamped and made even quicker. If one didn’t know that it’s an MMORPG, the scenes could also be from an action game such as a third-person shooter. Especially the ranged combat feels very shooter-like.
The hero unleashes a barrage of spells or special skills one after the other. Additionally, the character constantly teleports around to attack enemies from all sides or to dodge the opponent’s attacks. You must keep your wits about you to keep up with these scenes.
Added effects like explosions or flashes lead to a spectacular combat experience.
The melee combat unfolds similarly quickly, with whirlwind attacks, teleportation, and special attacks that make the screen shake.
What about the tactics? The person controlling the two characters in the gameplay videos knows what they are doing and when to use which attack. One can recognize a certain tactic, even if everything unfolds extremely quickly.
It’s not just about button mashing; you must strategically deploy your skills against the various monsters and opponents.
What else is new about the MMORPG? The developers also revealed that you can completely adjust your class according to your play style using skills and runes.
This even extends to the point that the same class can be played completely differently by two players, as both have adapted their skills and runes differently.
What is Elyon, anyway? The MMORPG was previously called AIR: Ascent Infinite Realm and focused more on aerial battles with airships in its first version.
It has now been renamed to Elyon and focuses on more classic MMORPG elements such as exploring a large game world, battling monsters, quests, and PvE elements. However, PvP still plays a certain role. Elyon now feels more like a modern TERA. Aerial battles are also still in the game, albeit significantly toned down.
When will the MMORPG be released? The interesting MMORPG Elyon is currently in a beta phase in Korea. A global release in 2021 appears realistic. The developers definitely want to release the online role-playing game here as well.
