The streamer group OTK from Twitch is teaming up with a development studio. Under the title “Project Honor”, they announce their own action RPG.
OTK is currently creating their own online RPG with Project Honor. Their ideas are being implemented by Notorious Studios, a small studio that includes former WoW developers Chris Kaleki and Douglas Frazer. They named the studio after their guild in WoW.
Who are OTK? The abbreviation stands for One True King. It is a group of Twitch streamers, most of whom have a connection to MMORPGs like WoW, Final Fantasy XIV, or Lost Ark. They include Asmongold, Mizkif, and tipsoutbaby, for example. They occasionally work together, develop joint formats, and support each other.
The group had already announced their partnership with Notorious Studios 7 months prior. In a video from summer 2022, tipsoutbaby announced that they will be working side by side with the developers to create Project Honor. The RPG was first introduced at that time.
On Tuesday, January 31, 2023, Notorious Studios spoke out in a new video. They present screenshots of the RPG and announce a playtest.
Project Honor will be an RPG on the Unreal Engine 5
What kind of game is it? According to the developers, Project Honor will be a classic online action RPG where you can play solo or together with friends. Using Unreal Engine 5, the studio according to the website will create “beautiful worlds filled with mysteries and dangers”.
This is what Project Honor offers:
- PvE content like dungeons
- PvP in the open world
- You collect loot and resources to equip your character.
- It features typical classes like mage, warrior, and priest, but is supposed to have unique gameplay.
- The combat system is supposed to be action-packed and deviate from the classic RPG combat system.
- Players view the game from a third-person perspective.
In the current video, the developers share 2 screenshots from Project Honor:
However, Notorious Studios emphasize that the RPG is in an early stage, so everything may change before the release. By the way, there is currently no release date. They are currently looking for players for their playtest, so you can register on the website for that. There is still no date for this either.
What do you think about Project Honor? Are you excited that OTK will soon have their own online RPG? Do you want to register for the playtest on the Notorious Studios website? Or would you rather wait until the release? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!
