DCUO is the most successful Superhero MMORPG in existence. Part of that is the IP, but their affinity for consoles is another reason. I believe CoT will very quickly release for the XBOX ONE S after releasing for the PC. The game is entirely free to play and you don’t have to use any money to gain an upper hand. Download (free) 3. Age of Conan. If you are on the lookout for an amazing free MMORPG game that offers great gameplay then Age of Conan is the perfect choice for you. This game is inspired although quite loosely by the novels of the same title.

We’ve certainly had our fair share of disappointing MMO releases over the past few years — most notably (R.I.P.) and Revelation Online. But, there are quite a few promising new hitting the market in 2019 (and beyond) that we can’t wait to get our hands on. We’d hate for you have to spend hours and hours creating a character and wasting your life away on one of these games that don’t have a pay-off. All too often, these types of games can just be an endless time sink.

That’s not what we’re looking for, though; we want something juicier, something meatier. Something that isn’t pay-to-win. This list contains all of the best-looking in the MMO genre for 2019 that are set for a North American release. We’ll note that we tried to include every upcoming MMORPG we could find in development, but we excluded browser-based and lower quality titles simply because, well, they’re not worth our time (nor are they worth your time). So if you’re looking for a new MMORPG to play, here are all of the upcoming new MMOs of 2019, 2020, and beyond: See Also: 1. Legends of Aria Release Date: January 8, 2019 Developer: Citadel Studios Publisher: Citadel Studios Legends of Aria is another one of those promising upcoming MMORPGs that touts its living, breathing world that’s actually influenced by players. Players can play on official or player run servers, and the ability for creating massive servers using a cluster server, which each server having unique rule sets.

It’s the first game that allows you to run and moderate your own game worlds that will support thousands of users at one time. At least, that’s what the marketing jargon says, and hopefully, the game will live up to its promise. It’s created by the lead developers of Ultima Online, so you know it’s in good hands.

No word on an official release date, but at least we know it’s on the way and the devs are hard at work. Our initial impression of LoA noted that the game just wasn’t ready for releasebut that was way back in March 2018. Hopefully, the January 2019 Early Access release will be more formidable. 2. Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen Release Date: TBA Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen is an MMORPG based on high fantasy, and it is, of course, set in a large open world. It will have a strong focus on group-oriented content and social interaction. It’ll take place on Terminus, a world populated by deities and heroes. The player takes on the role of a legendary hero, and you’re tasked with reclaiming long-lost relics.

The combat will focus on preparation and awareness, allowing players to be challenged through scenarios that require understanding and skill to rise above their opponents. The developers at Visionary Realms note that there will be activities in which players can do on their own, but the majority of the content will need to be conquered with others, with a strong focus on the importance of a player’s reputation. The game remains in a pre-alpha state, which it has been in since December 2017. Dual Universe Developer: Novaquark Publisher: Novaquark Release Date: TBD, Full Release Slated for Late 2020. Dual Universe is an upcoming sci-fi space simulation MMO, with every construction and ship built in-game by players.

It’s essentially a sandbox where players are tasked with building all of the civilizations, economy, trade, and warfare. That means players will create their own enemies (or defend themselves against others). That means players will form their own alliances, stake claim to their own civilizations, and could potentially block off rare resources from other players with a military force. The possibilities are endless.

Dual Universe is the first game with a fully editable universe that is going to be built by players. And, at this point, it’s hard to tell if that’s going to be a good thing or a bad thing. On one hand, we all love building stuff and crafting. On the other hand, though, you’ve got griefers, which has always been a problem with similar games before. How will Novaquark control griefers is the question. Still, it’s a promising concept, and it uses a continuous single shard server – meaning you’ll essentially be able to play with millions of other players, instead of thousands. The game is currently in the pre-alpha playtesting stage, so we’ve got a while yet before it ever sees the light of day.
