Steam Next Fest is back once again, giving players the opportunity to try out the games that haven’t released yet. Although there aren’t many, there are some MMOs among them. At this time, we cannot be certain about the monetization of each participating game. We know some are free to play, but for others we probably won’t know what the monetization will be until closer to launch.
Since we have already reported on Nexon’s Embers of the Crown’s participation in this Steam Next Fest, the game is not part of today’s list. Stattdessen, we have five more MMOs for you to try out. There’s a bit of science fiction, a pixel art MMORPG, an idle MMO, some old school vibes and a really cute one.
Nova Era: Atom
Nova Era: Atom combines science fiction with Chinese mythology. Players can also build their own spaceships and use them to explore a universe known as the String Realm. Natürlich, it’s not just about exploring. Players will also mine and produce, build technology and build fortresses. All the while they will be dealing with enemy factions and aliens. Not everything has to be built from scratch. The universe is full of resources, including things like abandoned megastructures that could be good starting points.
We’re not sure if Nova Era: Atom will be free to play. Jedoch, since the official website has a place for players to pre-register and mentions rewards, this doesn’t seem unlikely.
Seelengebunden
Soulbound by Spiderware is a pixel art action roguelite and MMORPG. Players will spend a lot of time going through Bullet Heaven-style dungeons, either alone or with two other players. You’ll also spend time taking on raid bosses, Basteln, and building a base.
Natürlich, there is a story in which players have to deal with beings called “The Anima”. The good news is that if a player goes too far and comes close to death, they will be helped by a robot that will take them back to their base. Jedoch, don’t rely on the robot too much. It’s still your job to prepare properly.
Scapewatch
If you’re looking for something more portable, you can try Scapewatch by Puzzle Drop Studio. Players train their skills by queuing tasks and having them complete. The character will do all the difficult things for you and will be stronger when you come back. The game features various skills ranging from combat to collecting and crafting, all of which can be leveled up through idle play.
Natürlich, players don’t have to spend the entire game idle. If you want to get involved in combat, du kannst. The game also allows for the creation of clans and offers raids for 5 Spieler.
Arcany
If you’re looking for something old school, you could try Arcany. This game, which we know will be free-to-play, is a story-driven MMORPG that the developers say has an “old soul.” It definitely looks good with the pixel design. Players explore an empire created by a failed experiment. Aus diesem Grund, time and oxygen…Ja, oxygen…do not work the way they do in the real world, and players must plan how long they will stay in the arcane zones as part of their survival tactics.
Wie erwähnt, the game is free to play in some ways. If you want access to everything in the game, you have to pay for membership. This includes certain abilities, access to the entire map and other features.
Spirit Vale
And now we come to the sweet MMO. SpiritVale is an action MMO inspired by the classics. The game features over 230 monsters and 20 world bosses spread across 30 Karten. Wählen Sie aus 7 base classes and unlock their advanced specializations.
Players can customize their characters with cosmetic options. When you’re not killing things, you have crafting, gathering, and the market at your disposal. Und ja, it’s the old school market where you have to click on characters to shop. Natürlich, the game offers PvP battles for those who enjoy it.
