Currently, some exciting MMORPGs and “Fast-MMORPGs” are in development, which we would like to present to you in this list.
Are you waiting for new MMORPGs or games that at least have MMORPG characteristics? Then you can look forward to it because some such titles are in the works. We will now reveal which ones they are.
Some of these games are set to be released in 2021, while others have not yet announced a release date.
Ashes of Creation
Setting: Fantasy | Developer: Intrepid Studios | Platforms: PC | Release: Unknown | Website: Website of Ashes of Creation
The basic idea of the game in brief: Ashes of Creation is a sandbox MMORPG in which you can basically go your own way. Whether you want to explore the world as an adventurer, run a town as a mayor, or become the best blacksmith in the land is entirely up to you.
In addition, you can expect PvP battles, PvE content such as quests and dungeon explorations, and you can even become the ruler of your own kingdom.
– Sandbox MMORPG
– Mixes PvE with PvP
– Uses Unreal Engine 4
– Players can build entire cities
– You can become the ruler of a kingdom
– Your actions have consequences on the game world
What’s special about the game: In Ashes of Creation, your actions influence the game world. This is where a so-called Node system comes into play. Areas have nodes that you conquer and change. For example, you build a city there that focuses on fishing. If you overdo it with fishing, it will awaken a sea monster that becomes a threat to the city.
Who is the game aimed at? Ashes of Creation is aimed at those who do not want to be tied to a predefined story. You must like PvP, as it is an integral part of the gaming experience. If you enjoy great freedom in an MMORPG, then Ashes of Creation is the right game for you.
Blue Protocol
Setting: Anime Fantasy | Developer: Bandai Namco | Platforms: PC | Release: 2021 | Website: Website of Blue Protocol
The basic idea of the game in brief: The exciting MMORPG Blue Protocol aims to convince you with an exciting story in which your hero travels back 1,000 years to prevent a disaster.
You will experience all this in anime graphics. You meet other players in a hub, form groups, and explore wilderness zones and dungeons to complete quests and improve your hero.
– Focus on PvE
– No Open World, but very large zones
– No PvP
– Dungeons are designed for groups of 6 players
– Fast-paced, action-packed battles
What’s special about the game: Blue Protocol essentially aims to be a playable anime. The online game achieves this through its graphics and the dense story that is even told in cutscenes. In addition, the game focuses on the cooperation of smaller groups, which raises the question of whether it really qualifies as an MMORPG.
Who is the game aimed at? Blue Protocol should appeal to those who find Genshin Impact lacking in MMO elements. Blue Protocol allows you to interact with more players, but like Genshin Impact, it focuses on the story. If you are looking for such a game, you should be excited about Blue Protocol.
Crimson Desert
Setting: Fantasy | Developer: Pearl Abyss | Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X | Release: End of 2021 | Website: Website of Crimson Desert
The basic idea of the game in brief: Crimson Desert offers a mix of single-player role-playing and online RPG. You experience the story of the mercenary MacDuff alone, but you can also interact with other players online. PvP also plays a role in this RPG. The game offers very action-packed battles.
Crimson Desert takes place in the same universe as the MMORPG Black Desert from the same development studio, Pearl Abyss.
– Mix of single-player and online RPG
– Exploration of a large open game world
– PvE and PvP are important in the MMO part, but the focus is on PvE
– You have to take care of your own mercenary troop
What’s special about the game: It seems that with Crimson Desert we can expect a gaming experience reminiscent of Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online. You experience the story of MacDuff alone, but you can switch to an online mode and fight with other players or experience adventures together.
Who is the game aimed at? If you enjoy playing single-player RPGs but still want to go online, Crimson Desert might be for you. You can switch between SP and MP and experience the game as you prefer.
