If you can’t possibly get enough of zombie apocalypses and survival sandboxes made by small developers, then you’re in luck because we’ve found another one of ’em for you. Say hello to VEIN, a new early access title being developed by Ramjet Studios that doesn’t appear to rock the boat but seems to have been […]

Yesterday was the official start of 10th anniversary celebrations for Blade & Soul here in our corner of the world, and NCsoft marked the occasion with a celebratory livestream that primarily focused on looking back at the game’s decade of operation with various devs and its players but also looked forward to a couple of […]

While Massively OP’s MJ was interested in checking out Where Winds Meet when it first appeared, its 100+ GB download made her hesitate. Now, she’s made some room (sorry other games!) and is poised to delve right in. MJ is eager to experience the beauty of the world. She even saw that there is a […]

Read through about some of the most recent updates to the smaller scale multiplayer games in our orbit. Have a cranberry scone and maybe some of this chai. It’s pretty […]

The post-holiday portion of the winter season can often feel like a moment of hibernation and calm, and that appears to be what Palia is going to be leaning in to when it puts forth its Winter’s Wonder: Snowbound Sanctuary content patch on Tuesday, January 13th. At least that’s part of the vibe exuded by […]

BitCraft, our winner for Best MMO Crafting of 2025, is focusing on communication among players in its first patch of this year, as the crafting-centric sandbox MMORPG has added support for several languages and added hyperlinking functionality, just in case you’re the sort of person who can’t help but communicate your in-game material desires through […]

After rescuing Ana in Dungeons & Dragons Online, everyone now knows that she’s the very Thread of the Weave that the drow have been looking for at the command of Lolth. So the drow are gathering for an all-out attack on the village of Eveningstar to recapture her. Massively OP’s MJ will assist the Purple […]

Fresh on the heels of its 2026 roadmap, Lost Ark is preparing to unleash its first patch of the year on January 14th. In the latest dev video, the team talked up the “extreme” Thaemine raid that’s been adjusted from the Korean version to match the current playerbase. The team also encouraged players to collect […]

What would it take for you to check out Black Desert on the PlayStation 5 system? Maybe a lady knight who swishes a big ol’ sword around? Or perhaps you’d prefer to play for free? Well for a limited time, you’re getting both of those things, as the sandbox MMORPG is indeed completely free-to-play on […]

The fact that ARC Raiders’ use of generative AI development tools for its creation, particularly for its voice work, is a sticky wicket for many shouldn’t come as a surprise in the age of rising slop tides. Still, Embark Studios CEO Patrick Soderlund is not backing down and continues to defend the decision in an […]

How do you feel about a new scenario in Once Human featuring a gigantic battle with a semi-submerged monstrous entity? The newest preview video from the game’s developer is promising that 2026 will be the “Year of the Monsters,” and not just because the developer quickly gets replaced by a light-headed monster to do the narrating. That […]

Did you think Blizzard was going to leave Diablo IV players with no new shinies to play over the winter holidays? Well, you’re wrong because apparently you can spend Christmas in hell thanks to the dawn of Season of Divine Intervention next week. Also there are angels with presents. Look, there’s a theme here, and […]

If nothing else, we can at least be generally assured that The First Descendant will have things going on between now and the first half of next year. That’s thanks to details from the latest livestream as Nexon talked up the content that’s arriving sometime in December (moments away, apparently) and laid out a roadmap […]

A new game purporting to be an MMORPG popped up on Steam this week: It’s called Dark Craft, it’s by Kazakh outfit Take Top Entertainment, and it pretty much looks like what would happen if you merged Dark Souls and Minecraft into an angsty squishmallow. “Dark Craft is the first MMORPG in the Souls-like genre!” […]

This first week of December just keeps racking up updates for MMOs and MMO-adjacent games, and that includes Fallout 76, which yesterday rather quietly updated with, you know, Ohio.
