XL Games and Kakao Games have announced a highly anticipated follow-up to their action MMORPG ArcheAge. Formally called ArcheAge 2, ArcheAge Chronicles had a nearly two-minute reveal as part of Sony PlayStation’s State of Play event.

The original ArcheAge contained much of what you would expect from a large scale action MMORPG: six major races, endless class combinations, epic battles, and transportation via horse, boat, and sea lion.

ArcheAge Chronicles reflects the original’s evolved vision by combining a rich, expansive world with a cinematic, ever-evolving story, as well as the fast-paced elements of an online action RPG. The game is developed from the ground up with Unreal Engine 5 to deliver stunning visuals and an immersive gameplay experience.

Intrigued? Check out the trailer below from the aforementioned September State of Play, an overview of the game (via Steam), as well as any of the latest ArcheAge Chronicles screenshots.

He discovered the RPGFan community a couple of years ago and, after growing up in Western Canada as a "jock," was thrilled to realize that there were others in the world who learned roman numerals as a teenager thanks to the Final Fantasy series. Contributing to the news team is his main objective at the site and it is his goal to project the confidence of Ron Burgundy while keeping everyone from realizing he might just be Brick Tamland.
