The new MMORPG Tower of Fantasy (PC/Mobile) features an open world in a sci-fi universe with a healthy dose of anime look. It is reminiscent of games like Genshin Impact or the upcoming Blue Protocol. Now there is new gameplay from the game!
What is Tower of Fantasy? This MMORPG is a fully-fledged MMORPG in anime style and sci-fi setting. Although it stylistically resembles Genshin Impact, there are significant differences in gameplay.
The biggest difference is that numerous players can roam through the world of Tower of Fantasy and experience group content. PvP, guilds, and trade are also expected to play a role.
However, some features also overlap with the large model. In Tower of Fantasy, you can among other things:
- Experience quests and tell a story
- Explore the world in a similarly free manner and climb anywhere
- Complete dungeons with multiple players
- Encounter NPCs with their own personality and story
What is new? On July 15, the developer released a new gameplay video for the anime MMORPG providing us new insights into the game. We see among other things:
- New cutscenes
- The character screen
- Dialogues and quests
- The free movement through the world and the flight system
- Some battles in the game
- Destructible objects and collectible items
- Some panoramas of the planet of the game
You can watch the entire video and the nearly 13 minutes of gameplay here:
Why is this exciting? Some players of games like Genshin Impact miss the multiplayer aspect of such a game environment. Tower of Fantasy aims to fill this gap and thus combine the gameplay of Genshin Impact with the mechanics of an MMORPG.
It is also still uncertain whether the game will use a gacha mechanic. However, players who are annoyed by that in Genshin might get their wishes granted should this “feature” be missing. Tower of Fantasy does not want to reinvent the wheel, merely fit into a gap that currently exists.
The community thinks it’s really good
What do the players say? The majority of the comments are very positively surprised by the gameplay from Tower of Fantasy.
- The user Dib Sya writes (via YouTube): “This looks like Genshin Impact + Honkai Impact and Dragon Raja combined into a grand-looking game. I’m looking forward to more!”
- Mat Yeng adds: “I have to be honest, this looks really good.”
- The user Dear Luciella writes: “I hope the game gets a good story and world-building!”
When can you play it? Unfortunately, there is still no confirmed release in the West. The game will only be released in China for now. Currently, around 30,000 players can participate in a beta there.
Players here will definitely have to wait a while longer before they can try Tower of Fantasy themselves.
