Here's a list consisting of 18 of the most promising/popular indie MMOs in development. Most if not all of them do not have a release date, but some of them (Crowfall, Gloria Victis, Fox Hole) are getting closer to launch. This list has been posted elsewhere on the web. If you have suggestions to improve it, please let me know. Ashes of Creation [Alpha] Setting: Medieval Fantasy || View: Third-Person || Focus: PvP/PvE || Budget: ~$40M* || Engine: Unreal 4 || Origin: U.S. Nodes system: player participation influences the type of content in the surrounding areas Open world housing: players have the ability to survey and develop land anywhere in the world Castle sieges with hundreds of players with many moving parts Harsh, unforgiving and stunning environment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_hsJPB8y7k&ab_channel=AshesofCreation Corepunk [Alpha] Setting: Cyberpunk || View: Isometric || Focus: PvE/PvP || Unity 5 Seamless open world with fog of war Players explore the world, participate in trading, complete dungeons, or engage in PvP battles Day / night cycles as well as weather conditions Flexible character customization with a wide variety of builds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_RPcB-9rE8&ab_channel=IGN Mortal Online 2 [Beta] Setting: Medieval Low-Fantasy || View: First-Person || Focus: PvP || Engine: Unreal 4 || Origin: Sweden Open and realistic sandbox world where player houses can be built almost anywhere True, real-time combat where outcomes are decided by skill rather than levels or gear Legendary crafters trading across the globe, famous warriors studying the art of combat, explorers puting names on the map Individual reputation: people will recognize players by their impact on the world https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWLlefiy2E&ab_channel=BadmanLasermouse

For some reasons I thought Black Desert had largely positive reviews, but on Metacritic it only received 73% (and 6.9 user score).

Black Desert (a MMORPG Pearl Abyss released in 2016) is very high quality, with top-notch combat and content. I guess they'll do a great job with Crimson Desert, although I would have preferred if it was a MMORPG.

$352M so far, I wonder what will be the total development budget ($500M?). It's going to be the most funded video game ever I guess. If I had a gaming PC that's a game I would probably want to try.

There's something that doesn't make me feel hyped about the gameplay trailer. I'm not sure if it's because the buildings look too cartoony, or the more "generic" art style, different from the AoE 1-3, but I'm not impressed anyway.
