Today’s the day Final Fantasy 14 gets a console upgrade…or at least the beginning of one. The open beta for the Playstation 5 version of the game has launched, and you can play it even if you don’t technically own the game. By downloading the Free Trial version any PS5 owner can take the enhanced FF14 for a spin, while the open beta period lasts. (You WILL need a PS5, and we can’t help you there.) Those who already own the game on PS4 will be able to upgrade to the PS5 version at no extra cost, as long as a PS4 license is registered to their account. This is also the day that Patch 5.5 has been released for all versions of Final Fantasy 14. Players will find the following new content upon applying the patch: New Main Scenario Quests – Prospects of peace may soon fall to ruin, as Fandaniel and the Telophoroi scheme to recreate the Final Days, and ominous towers rise in all corners of the

For quite a while, Sega’s MMO Phantasy Star Online 2 has been available on PCs through Steam and the Windows 10 Store. The only place you can’t buy it for PC is the Epic Game Store, but that will only be true for a few more hours. Sega is bringing the game to a new marketplace. The EGS version of PSO2 will come with every scrap of content introduced for the game to date, including the latest update to Chapter 6. “With all the huge updates to the game over the past year, including the newest Chapter 6 update, there’s more content than ever to explore and play through,” says said Fred White from PSO2 Team Global. “We can’t wait to welcome in all the new players to the PSO2 universe!” ARKS (soldiers of the Oracle colony fleet in the Phantasy Star Online 2 series) are invited to join together online to explore numerous worlds with friends and experience PSO2’s unparalleled action combat and character customization.

We’ve got a new patch for Final Fantasy XIV Online! Patch 5.45 is now available on all versions of the game (PC, Mac and PS4). The feature attraction of this update is the new chapter in the “Save The Queen” multi-part quest series written by Yasumi Matsuno. The battle for the Bozjan southern front continues, and also introduces Delubrum Reginae — a new large-scale battle set in the ruins of Queen Gunnhildr’s kingdom. Other fresh content includes updates to some weapons and tools, plus more cosmetic items to collect. Here’s the full bullet list: Resistance Weapon Quests Update: “Save the Queen: Past to Rest” – The battle for the southern front wages on, and having failed to retake Castrum Lacus Litore, chances of victory appear slim for the Resistance.

Phantasy Star Online 2 Announces First Content Update Of 2021

Phantasy Star Online 2 Announces First Content Update Of 2021

Sega is about to unleash a massive update for Phantasy Star Online 2 next Wednesday, February 3. The story will be updated, for one thing. Sega describes the impending plot developments this way: “The battle lines have been drawn, and the Armada of Annihilation continues to gather its forces around the Mothership. The time to strike is now, before any more Luminmech can be created. Sacrifices may be required as it’s going to take an all-out, coordinated attack by ARKS to annihilate Shiva – and the fate of the universe depends on the outcome.” So what does that mean? It means we get a new Scion Class: Luster. This high-speed class comes equipped with Gunblades and features three combat styles: Zandi, Fomel and Baran. You can only use this class if you’ve attained Level 73 on at least two other classes. Zandi Style – This is a high-speed style that is activated when a Wind or Lightning Element weapon is equipped. Most notable for its agility and proficiency with area

Sega announced today that they’ve added some new content to their long-running MMORPG Plantasy Star Online 2. Starting this week, anyone who logs into PSO2 will receive a Gold Bonus Key each day through January 20. Those who log in enough times within that period will get a Rainbow Bonus Key, an IDOLA poster and other items. What’s the Rainbow Key for? It grants access to a quest with massive rewards (experience points and Meseta, mostly), but only for a limited time, so be sure to use it if you get it. It’s impossible to get a Rainbow Key outside of special events or campaigns like this. Next week PSO2 will host other events including the Zero Meseta Cost Enhancement Campaign, the Quest Trigger Distribution Campaign (subtitled “Where the Chocolate Went”), and the Death, Destroyer of Worlds Completion Campaign. Completing any of these will earn you materials like IDOLA-themed backgrounds, stickers, and a weapon camo through February 9. Sega has also launched an official PSO2 webcomic in both Japanese and

Halloween Greetings From Ship Of Heroes

Halloween Greetings From Ship Of Heroes

We’ve received a new progress update from the team working on Ship Of Heroes, the superhero-based MMO scheduled to reach completion in 2021….and they brought along a Halloween-themed special video. Ship of Heroes conducted three of their largest server stress tests to date last September. Called Invasion Tests, they were the first truly open beta tests in development history. Mass amounts of heroes were summoned in the same area, and then the game was dumped with tons of enemies to see how many the server could handle. Though they were pleased with how well their coding held up, more tests need to be conducted before release. Here are the recently published notes: Creating and debugging mission content is one of the main focus areas of the SoH dev team right now. They openly say they are preparing for a launch, though no firm date has been set at this point. But apparently, this mission was created during the month of October, which augurs well for the amount of mission content

MMO Starborne Releases Dissidence Update

MMO Starborne Releases Dissidence Update

, , , , , 0

Developer Solid Clouds has been running its MMORTS Starborne in open beta for the last six months. Last weekend the first major content update, subtitled Dissidence, hit the servers. Starborne is slower-paced than most other real-time strategy games, especially those with online elements. Accoding to Solid Clouds each server hosts a game that takes place over the course of eight weeks. A lot of that time is spent gathering your army, preparing for battle, and coming up with strategies…the game rises to a climactic battle in the closing weeks. Success depends on preparation! Here’s what’s been added: – Special hex effects: Hexes on the map which afford strategic benefits to your entire empire or your whole alliance and sector, when held. – Overhauled Rankings: A complete rework of many UI panels within the game, with a focus on exposing more metrics for players to measure themselves against. – Updated Alliance Panels: Continuation of the UI rework. Many quality of life improvements for alliance management, organization and planning for leaders and

The Results From The Ship Of Heroes Invasion Test

Late last month, the superhero-based MMO Ship of Heroes conducted what it called a series of “Invasion Tests.” At certain points, the game was dumped with as many enemies as the server could possibly handle. Because a high volume was needed to properly judge how well the game would hold up under such conditions, this was the first Ship of Heroes beta test that everyone was allowed to join. Ship of Heroes conducted three of these Invasion Tests over several Saturdays. They’re now in the process of revising the game based on the data collected, but overall, they say the test went smoothly and there should be no delays for the launch in a few months. “Enabling big battles is one of the most technically challenging features for MMOs,” states the notes provided by Heroic Games. “One of the things that the devs are showcasing in the invasions is that most of the powersets planned for the launch at the end of the year are already in the game, and

Sci-Fi MMO Dual Universe Releases PvP Trailer

Sci-Fi MMO Dual Universe Releases PvP Trailer

Canadian dev studio Novaquark has been slowly building up their space MMORPG Dual Universe since 2018, holding closed alpha tests (which you can still join) and gearing up for a hoped-for 2021 full release. This summer, they’ll be moving to beta testing and adding a feature that’s been anticipated from the beginning: PvP battles. Dual Universe gives you the ability to customize your spaceship and crew, and PvP is the moment when all those decisions will be put to the test. When you find yourself at war with another player, your ship’s size, construction, and arsenal will be contributing factors in victory or defeat. Of course being a skilled tactician is even more valuable, and the one with the best battle plan will hold the biggest advantage. “With Dual Universe’s PvP, we have tried to do something really unique and innovative, leveraging the potential of our voxel engine, and first-person immersion inside potentially very large ships,” says Novaquark CEO Jean-Christophe Baillie. “Fans will have to rely on both their design

Ship of Heroes is an upcoming superhero-based MMO that’s a lot like City of Heroes, except it is centered around a large ship. You ride the ship to various locales, beat up the bad guys in every city, and then travel to the next one. Heroic Games, the team behind Ship of Heroes, has been conducting alpha and beta tests since 2017, and their most recent test was their biggest ever…the Community Event, where anyone who asked could join in. Heroic has conducted several beta tests before this one, but they’ve been closed affairs exclusive to those who donated at least $50 to the project before last October. They decided to open the gates for this new test, though, and granted keys at open request. Over twice as many players joined the open event as there were in the last closed one. This most recent beta included sixty new costume pieces, fully functional vendors, an early peek at the crafting system, and a level cap of 20. Here are some

Fincon Announces “Return To Angel Stone” Event

Fincon Announces “Return To Angel Stone” Event

In 2015, developer Fincon first released the action RPG Angel Stone to mobile platforms. In the post-apocalyptic supernatural setting, you choose one of three classes (Berserker, Gunslinger, or Shadow Mage) and fight with angels against a demonic army. The game supports co-op and PvP modes, and multiplayer is cross-platform across all devices Angel Stone plays on (iOS, Android, and technically PC but it’s really a Facebook canvas). Attendance must be dwindling, because Fincon has put out a wide notice calling attention to an event called “Return To Angel Stone.” The event serves as both a call for those who have abandoned the game to return, and an introduction for newbies to pick it up. Angel Stone’s Weekend Events are packed with tons of useful boosts and discounts for players to use over the weekend! The “Gold Fiesta” event gives players a 2x Gold Boost on all Missions. Meanwhile, the “EXP Boost” event gives a 2x EXP Boost on all Missions. If you want to save more on items, the “Reinforcement
