Rank 4: Chrono Odyssey

Developer: Chrono Studio | Platform: PC, Consoles | Release Period: Q1 2027 | Model: Unclear | Votes in the MeinMMO Poll: 149

Unlike ranks 5 and 6, we were able to play Chrono Odyssey in a beta on Steam. So we already know relatively much about the first MMORPG from Chrono Studio. For example, that we can expect a mix of theme park and sandbox, with a strong focus on exploring the game world as well as PvE content for solo players and small groups.

Chrono Odyssey also feels unusually non-Asian in various areas. There is no gender lock, no random factor in crafting and upgrading equipment, no pure mob grind. The setting combines elements from fantasy, sci-fi, and cosmic horror.

During the playtest, I particularly enjoyed the game world of Chrono Odyssey and how motivating and rewarding it feels to uncover it step by step. However, the MMORPG also revealed significant issues. From my perspective, it was therefore the right decision by the team to significantly delay the planned release for late 2025.

The regular updates from the developers also show that they are using this time to implement the extensive feedback from the community and to noticeably improve the technology. All of this combined is, of course, no guarantee that Chrono Odyssey can excite us next year. However, I am cautiously optimistic.
