Other MMORPGs you can play on next-gen
Thanks to backward compatibility, you should also be able to play the following 4 MMORPGs on your PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
TERA
Setting: Fantasy | Developer: Krafton | Payment Model: Free2Play | Release Date: PC: May 3, 2012, PS4 and Xbox One: April 3, 2018 | Website: MS Store, Playstation Store
The MMORPG with fast-paced, action-heavy combat offers you many quests, PvP, and the hunt for better gear. You fight boss monsters, participate in guild wars, and create a unique character.
TERA is a somewhat older MMORPG that relies heavily on grinding but still has many fans today.
Skyforge
Setting: Fantasy/Science Fiction | Developer: Allods Team | Payment Model: Free2Play | Release Date: PC: July 16, 2015, PS4: April 11, 2017, Xbox One: November 29, 2017 | Website: MS Store, Playstation Store
Skyforge is a somewhat unusual MMORPG, as you do not explore an open game world, but rather move through relatively small zones on a per-mission basis. In these, you battle as a contender for the throne of a god against extraterrestrial monsters that want to conquer your world.
Becoming a god is an exciting idea. Followers gather powers, develop them, and also having fun competing against other gods in PvP.
Star Trek Online
Setting: Science Fiction | Developer: Cryptic Studios | Payment Model: Free2Play | Release Date: PC: February 5, 2010, PS4 and Xbox One: September 2016 | Website: MS Store, Playstation Store
The MMORPG places you in the role of a starship captain, who on the side of the Federation, Klingons, or Romulans not only fights space battles but also completes quests on planetary surfaces.
Star Trek Online skillfully mixes two gameplay elements, as controlling the spaceship feels entirely different than exploring the planets.
DC Universe Online
Setting: Superheroes | Developer: Daybreak Games | Payment Model: Free2Play | Release Date: PC: January 11, 2011, PS4: November 15, 2013, Xbox One: April 29, 2016, Switch: August 6, 2019 | Website: MS Store, Playstation Store
In the role of a self-created superhero, you protect a city from disasters, enemies, and supervillains. Alongside Superman, Batman, and others, you embark on exciting adventures in many quests.
Particularly the superhero scenario and the development of superpowers make DC Universe Online an exciting MMORPG.
