With Durango: Wild Lands, we are expecting an interesting mobile MMORPG for Android and Apple smartphones in May that somewhat resembles Ark: Survival Evolved .
In Durango: Wild Lands, you find yourself in a mysterious land ruled by massive dinosaurs. In the vast sandbox, you try to survive and build a society with others. To do this, you build bases and go hunting for dinosaurs or gather valuable resources.
In short: The game mechanics are very reminiscent of Ark: Survival Evolved. Just with more MMO elements.
Who is behind the game? The mobile giant Nexon has been working on the game for 5 years, referring to a “10-year plan”. The sandbox MMORPG has gone through many long beta phases, which are now coming to an end. And several million registrations show: The demand is high and so are the expectations.
Survive in the dinosaur world of the sandbox MMORPG
After you end up stranded in the mysterious land due to an accident, the first task is to survive.
- Gameplay is from an isometric perspective similar to Diablo
- You create your own character and use an editor that offers many customization options
- You set out to explore the vast game world
- Choose typical classes from MMOs, which you can switch at will
- Mine resources
- Craft items like weapons and tools
- You also build houses and, together with other players, entire bases
- You hunt wild animals, including massive dinosaurs
- Resources you collect from defeated dinosaurs help you create better equipment
- You create and join clans, solve group tasks, conquer territories and compete with others
- You can measure yourself against other players in special zones
Dinos are herd animals
The control system of Durango is said to resemble Lineage 2 Revolution, but provides a slightly action-packed combat experience since you can also use firearms. The game world is supposed to continuously evolve and the dinosaurs do not just stand around waiting to be attacked by you. They follow a routine, sleep at night or hunt in herds, which naturally requires special tactics if you want to hunt the saurian.
The MMORPG Durango: Wild Lands will be playable from May on your mobile Android device. A specific start date is not yet known. There is also no information yet about an iOS version of Durango.
