Neverwinter's getting serious about its competitive game, as the title is launching new PvP seasons for player rewards and glory. The Neverwinter Combat League challenges players to compete for rankings in the game's different PvP modes during timed seasons. It is currently in its first pre-season period that will run from now through July 11th. During this period, players can...

Who would have thought that, three years later, both Defiance the television series and Defiance the MMO would still be chugging along? But here we are, 2015, and Defiance is debuting its third season premiere tonight on Syfy. The show picks up from season two's cliffhanger which introduced a new alien warrior race called the Omec. Since the series and...

ZeniMax is pumping out plenty of marketing content for Elder Scrolls Online lately, including today's video entitled Day One in Tamriel. It's of course aimed at new Xbox One and PlayStation 4 customers, seeing as how day one in Tamriel actually happened way back in March of 2014. But, whatever, and welcome console newbros! The clip shows you that "there are endless...

Mark Jacobs is back with a Friday afternoon update for Camelot Unchained. In it, he says that players will soon be able to destroy structures with spells, after which they will break and fall apart (the structures, that is, not the spells or the players). Jacobs also says that the dev team hit 58 items on CU's user stories page,...

Trove is apparently racing to see just how much content it can cram into this voxelbox title before it launches on July 9th. Next up on the docket? Dragons. Lots and lots of dragons. So many that even a khaleesi might say, "OK, that's enough, we should return some of these for store credit or perhaps re-gift a few." Trion...

The next patch for World of Warcraft is sending players back in time, just a little bit. With an expansion based on nostalgia, that makes a certain amount of sense. The Arcatraz is the first timewalking dungeon to be previewed, and like its contemporaries it hasn't been scaled up for new players so much as current endgame players are...

Earlier this week, Aion's Elyos got to check out their upcoming new zone, Cygnea. Today, the Asmodians can see their area that will be introduced in the Upheaval update coming June 17th. This new video of Enshar shows off some new creatures and more than a few breathtaking vistas. From waterfalls to bubbles to rainbows, there's no missing the fact that...

It's a double dose of good news for Cabal II fans today, as ESTsoft not only announced the game's open beta launch date but also confirmed that there will not be a wipe when it happens. Cabal II will officially soft-launch into a global open beta on July 2nd. The free-to-play fantasy title promises a return to "the classic days"...

EA has just announced its E3 lineup, and MMO fans are going to like the part where the company casually reveals the name and focus of the next Star Wars: The Old Republic expansion. Glowsticks at the ready! Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ – The largest story-driven expansion to date, Knights of the Fallen Empire, marks a renewed focus on...

Windward is an oddly endearing little duck that escaped my wandering game eye prior to the moment developer Tasharen Entertainment dangled an early access key in MassivelyOP's general vicinity. It's not strictly an MMORPG, which you might have guessed given its presence in this column, but it shares enough of the genre's DNA to both be worth mentioning on MOP and to...
