ArcheAge has been released...again!

XLGames' open-world MMORPG was released in Korea in January 2013. Trion Worlds took it upon themselves to bring the lands of Erenor to Europe and North America. Today is launch day!

ArcheAge, the free-to-play fantasy sandbox MMORPG from Trion Worlds and Korean game developer XLGAMES, has kicked off its head start for Founders. Players who purchased one of ArcheAge’s Founders Packs are able to dive into the game a full four days early, leading up to ArcheAge’s official launch on September 16.

Check out the trailer below, and for more information, visit the official site.

The ArcheAge Blood & Bounty Closed Beta Event is fast approaching and we got your ticket into the weekend session!

Couldn't get enough of ArcheAge's recent closed beta, or didn't get an invite? You'll have another chance with Beta 2, dubbed "Setting Sail", which will run from 10am PT on Wednesday, July 30th through 10am PT on Monday, August 4th.

"...over one million of you have already joined our community of
ArcheAge supporters, even before the first Beta event began!"

It's no surprise: people are very interested in what ArcheAge has to offer. With an open world, intriguing economy, and mix-and-match skillsets, we're interested too! That interest has hit a crescendo, topping 1 million players signed-up for ArcheAge. Now, that number isn't active players, but it's a promising figure either way.

It's a place that not many triple-A titles are hitting: sandbox games are left out of the Cool Kid’s Club, often times due to their limited nature. ArcheAge is the antithesis of limited--in a world plagued by too much choice, can a game offering the same truly be successful? Trion Worlds CEO Scott Hartsman took some time out of his busy schedule to talk about ArcheAge's first upcoming Closed Beta session and what makes the game so incredibly different.

ArcheAge, a sandbox MMO brought to you by Trion Worlds and XL Games, will be officially released when Patch 1.2 launches. While no release date other than noting it will be in 2014 has been announced, the game recently updated to Patch 1.0, so it is progressing steadily toward its goal.
