Said to have a total of eight classes available to players at launch. Fans of the original Ragnarok Online can but wait with bated breath.
Bless
Utilising a more gritty graphical style developed with Unreal Engine 3, Bless focuses on story driven content and challenging combat focusing more on perfecting classic features and gameplay as opposed to trying to innovate. With a wide selection of classes and races players will be lost and immersed in this huge world of monsters and magic.

Armored Warfare
Who doesn’t love Tank battles!? This team based modern military shooter from Obsidian has been developed with the CryEngine3, so it looks and feels hella impressive! Though PVP is a focus there are PVE campaigns for players to advance their own story arc and a wide scope for tank customisation to really put players in control.
Albion Online
Another sandbox MMORPG allows players to explore, craft and fight in this open fantasy themed world where players can construct their own homes, towns and even cities and then defend them against other rival settlements in a PVP focused MMO.

Lost Ark
Another visual masterpiece from the world of Korean MMORPGs, developed by Smilegate the game might be unheard of by most but those that know of it simply can’t wait until it hits our western shores. An isometric top down Diablo style RPG but with the size and scope of an MMORPG, there’s a lot of buzz about the game and we can only hope it delivers.
Echo of Soul
From the main developers that worked on Lineage II the game sticks with its traditional MMORPG roots, classic tried and tested features and gameplay with extensive end game content. There’s not a lot in the way of released features so far, but after winning Best MMORPG 2014 at the Thailand Game Show Festival it’s made its way onto our watch list.
H1Z1
Sony Online Entertainments new zombie survival horror MMO is a truly open sandbox with in depth crafting and open world PVP (though an optional PVE only server does exist). Still in early Alpha development the game drops players into an abandoned and near lifeless rural landscape where everything wants you dead, from the zombies, players and the bad chicken you scavenged from a dumpster.
