We are not showcasing MMORPGs here, but online games that have some MMO elements. This means they do not necessarily have to be traditional role-playing games, but many players are needed to form groups or guilds for adventures. This includes survival games or even hack ‘n slays that fall under the term “MMO”.

What is Atlas? The survival MMO Atlas places you in a world full of islands. As pirates, you set out to conquer these islands and establish a base there. Not only do you battle other players, but you also take on creatures from myths and legends.
Ship battles are a top priority, and you need a good crew to face the challenges ahead.
To make the ocean unsafe with a ship and reach islands, you first need to build a vessel. As a guild, you can create entire fleets, which can lead to massive naval battles.
Atlas is currently still in the early access phase. The game regularly receives new content, which is also based on player feedback. Just in May, a major update with new content was released.
How many players does Atlas have on Steam: In the last 30 days, an average of 6,733 players played the MMORPG. During peak times, there were 12,298 simultaneous players.
What players say: Atlas is somewhat controversial due to the state of the game. For many, the early access phase started simply too early. Performance issues and bugs are the most criticized elements. However, this should improve over the course of the early access phase.
- Robin Hood writes on Steam: “It was a rocky start but the game has potential. If you’re unsure whether to play, you might want to wait a few months.”
- Rafcon explains: “Honestly, I don’t know why everyone is complaining here. The game is clearly an alpha. You have to accept that it has certain bugs. “
This is what MeinMMO says about Atlas: Atlas can be described as a kind of ARK with pirates. If you like pirates and naval battles as well as survival elements, then read our first impressions of the game:
