It’s time once more for us to do our semi-sporadic peek into Persist Online, the PvPvE zombie-filled shooter MMO in pre-alpha development by Tibia studio CipSoft. And this time around we cast our eyes to the game thanks to its most recent major update, which introduces a new resource capturing mechanic known as nodes. In summary, nodes […]

Have you ever had that moment when you and another car are racing to get the last parking spot near a store? Have you thought to yourself that this would make for a great video game if it also featured rockets and collisions and the mechanics of musical chairs? If so, well, maybe you are […]

This past August, we reported on the VR MMORPG Ilysia, which transitioned to a free-to-play business model while still maintaining its early access development. It’s been a few months since that update went live, so it’s time to provide a quick check in. In terms of updates, those have kept on coming, even if sporadically, with a primary […]

Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen has been using several weeks to post blogs, lore, and design previews of its update due in February, but none of them provided a release date beyond… well, February. As of the MMORPG’s most recent post, we now have a release window of sometime next week as it goes through internal testing, […]

Boy, people in space get angry, huh? That’s the takeaway from Star Wrath, a new game in close beta that hits that good old-fashioned PvPvE extraction drum for appeal. If you want to extract from space but you are also extremely angry about it for various reasons, maybe it is exactly what you’re looking for. Meanwhile, Time […]

It takes all kinds for internet spaceship sandboxes like Star Citizen to hum, and one of those kinds is the industrialist player: the rock cruncher, the space trucker, the material and manufacturing magnate. If you’ve felt as if this aspect of the game is lacking, then maybe some planned updates from CIG will ease your […]

I was surprised yesterday to realize that Nightingale had patched up on my Steam Deck without a peep from the devs, but I had only to be patient: Inflexion has now dropped a Steam post as well as a video explain what’s up. And what’s up is the co-op survival sandbox RPG’s second birthday since […]

I said it, and I’m actually going to deliver on it this time: I’m bringing you back to another round of Eldegarde. That’s Notorious Studios’ recent mini-MMO, which primarily plays as an extraction RPG. And yet it has so many features that MMO players love to see that it’s been self-dubbed a mini-MMO. The game […]

The Neverness to Everness closed beta is winding down, but Massively OP’s MJ is slipping in before the doors completely close tomorrow. She is interested in seeing what the game is all about, and of course, showing it off to you! Join us in live at 8:00 p.m. as Massively OP’s Stream Team takes a […]

Every once in a while, into my inbox launches a game so ridiculous I just have to write it up, and today, that game is Roombattle, a “six-player vacuum-party-battler” that could not be winking harder about its very obvious pun name. Spanish developer Dust Games announced this afternoon that it’s launching March 25th, with a […]

Who’s ready for another PvPvE extraction title? Because that’s the new thing that Gaijin Entertainment and developer Targem Games is offering in the form of Star Wrath, which puts players into spaceships to harvest resources and… the DNA of slain enemies. Ew. “In Star Wrath, players build and customize modular spacecraft, head out on high‑risk raids, battle in PvE […]

Remember back in January when EverQuest franchise players were miffed that Daybreak had decided to skip a roadmap for EverQuest and EverQuest II in 2026, out of a stated desire to avoid “redundancy”? At the time, Daybreak’s Jenn Chan said that the studio would still be putting out its traditional two game updates and an […]

Hey, remember Time Takers? Probably not, so here’s a recap: NCsoft announced it’d be publishing a “time survival” shooter back at the end of 2024, and last summer at Gamescom, it revealed the game as Time Takers. It sort of got overshadowed because NCsoft announced Cinder City (an actual MMO shooter) at the same show, […]

Unless you’re on Instagram, you may have missed the news that Equinox Homecoming has launched a demo on Steam – we sure had, anyhow, before a reader tipped us off and we found the announcement buried on Reels, rather than on Steam itself or other social media. Perhaps by the time this post is live […]

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 […]

I’m not exactly surprising anyone when I say that we here on Massively Overpowered love us some Project Gorgon and we would love it even if it didn’t have a launch date, which it hasn’t for a long time… but it does now! January 28th is the official launch date for the game now, meaning that […]

Over the past couple of months we’ve kept an eye on Soloria, a self-described “fake massively multiplayer offline roleplaying game” being created by a former Dungeons & Dragons Online developer, though news has been extremely sporadic, with the latest peep being a teaser trailer posted earlier this month. Well, there’s since been a bigger peep. […]

Last year we started peeking in on Towerborne, a side-scrolling multiplayer online “looter brawler” from developer Stoic Games and published by Xbox Game Studios. The game started life in paid-for early access and was angling for a free-to-play release. MOP’s Sam found the game to be right up his arcade-loving alley, and we even streamed […]

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 […]
