If you own an Xbox One and would like Bless Online Without Quite So Much Bless Online In It, you’re in luck! Bless Unleashed is testing on that console as of this weekend, so you can give that a spin. We tried it out back at PAX East and found that it did in fact have not quite so much Bless Online in it after all.
Other beta news? There’s a little bit!
- Crowfall is looking into some major armor rebalancing work, with no more HP and other alterations. The missing health will be handed back to players in other ways, though, so you needn’t worry that player health will just drop.
- PixARK looks like what happens if Ark: Survival Evolved and Minecraft were combined in a teleportation accident, like Jeff Goldblum and a fly. Also, it’s launching on May 31st. That’s probably a wee bit more relevant than the Goldblum reference.
- How much would you like to know about Astellia Online’s Warrior and Scholar? Because there’s a whole lot of information available on them right here. If you wish to know less about them… well, hey, that’s just rude. They like to know about you!
- Last but not least, OrbusVR: Reborn has launched. That would be the reboot and expansion of the original OrbusVR, hence the “reborn.”
A bit thin this week, isn’t it? Like someone snapped half of the games out of existence. You might be going to see a movie about that this weekend, but if you have the time to see if we’re still listing something in an incorrect test phase or you have other updates for us, let us know down in the comments! We appreciate it.
As always, we consider an MMO to be in open testing if it features free, public signups and will server wipe prior to launch. An MMO is marked in closed testing if it’s running a private test phase that cannot freely be accessed by the general public; it’s usually under NDA as well. Early access and crowdfunded MMOs whose tests we deem legitimate will be included. So-called “open beta” soft-launch MMOs with cash shops, no sign of launch in the west, or limited interest for our readers will not be listed; we also do not list expansions, with occasional exceptions.
