Whelp, there isn’t any extra “2” within the title of ArcheAge’s follow-up title. As a substitute of being generally known as “ArcheAge 2,” right this moment’s Sony State of Play presentation revealed that XL Video games and Kakao Video games are calling their subsequent MMORPG ArcheAge Chronicles as a substitute.
Exhibiting off the products in a video reveal, ArcheAge Chronicles appears to be like fairly thus far, however the Unreal Engine 5 will try this to a sport. Apparently, the official announcement payments the sport as an “on-line motion RPG” quite than an “MMO,” one thing we have seen New World do these days. Nonetheless, ArcheAge Chronicles will nonetheless function a persistent world, participant housing, a participant pushed economic system, a “deep” narrative, and “social” options.
“We’re extremely excited to unveil ‘ArcheAge Chronicles’ to the world,” stated Jake Tune, CEO of XLGAMES. “This new title represents our imaginative and prescient of mixing the expansive, immersive parts of an MMO with the dynamic, participating gameplay of an On-line Motion RPG. We won’t watch for gamers to expertise the following chapter of the ArcheAge universe.”
ArcheAge Chronicles will launch in 2025 on PC (Steam and Epic Video games), PS5, and Xbox Collection X|S and extra particulars on options and beta testing is forthcoming. Apparently, the sport’s Steam web page doesn’t comprise the “F2P” tags, so whereas the unique ArcheAge was free, perhaps the follow-up is not going to be? The Steam web page does say that Chronicles is the “subsequent evolution of the MMORPG style” although, so I am certain that’ll be 100% true. Proper?
