Summer has come to some regions in the northern hemisphere and that means the annual E3 is drawing near. E3 is never supposed to be the stage for MMOs but it always gives some surprises to MMO fans. Last year, we saw ION (though it’s been forsaken for a year), we had Destiny, The Division, and others. This year, Ubisoft is preparing something very new — a multiplayer-centric new IP which is likely to be talked at its pre-E3 conference.
The pre-E3 period, from mid-May to mid-June, is also an exciting time for MMO gamers this year. Below are some games you may like to give a try.
Tree of SaviorSteam F2P launch on May 10 ![]()
From the creator of Ragnarok, Tree of Savior has launched in the west on Steam. The game provides lots of class combination, distinct class skills, classic grinding gameplay, boss raids, dungeons, colorful visuals, and in the future, guild content like guild wars and guild hall.

You can choose from 2 different starting towns, each of which has a unique progress path until a certain point in mid-game. You can discover the secrets hidden in the world, opening treasure chests and collecting outfits. Or you can try different class combinations to find out the build that fits you best.

OverwatchGlobal launch on May 24
Since Blizzard’s new IP is buy-to-play and I wasn’t so sure players would buy it before. The game has sold
450,000 preorder copies (on 3 different platforms) in US alone, and the open beta has been played by
9.7 million players worldwide. The game seems fine and if you are fans of competitive shooter that relies on player skill, Overwatch is a game you can consider.

There Are Already the Auto-Aim and Wall Hacks in Overwatch
If you decide to wait and see how the game does after release, it’s not a bad idea, because Overwatch isn’t going to make ranked play available at launch, and that matters a lot for a competitive-centric game.

Fortunately, the game has already had 21 heroes, each of which has dozens of cosmetics to collect. You can do many challenges listed on the achievements and win cosmetic rewards for completing them.

Kingdom Under Fire 2Chinese CBT on May 25 – 2P to giveaway 100 CB keys
The game still has no western release schedule. But western players can try the game in the Chinese server to see if the game is what you are waiting for. We recommend KUF2 Chinese server because it has the newest version in the world, including
new class Ranger, several new units, and
new 8v8 siege mode that aren’t available in other servers.

StarBreakLaunched on Steam on May 10
StarBreak is a side-scrolling platformer MMO with fresh visuals, action-packed, skill-based combat, equipment that can alter your character’s ability or enhance your stats, and more importantly, roguelike features.
If you aren’t going to accept the mechanic of permadeath, the game may not be what you are looking for. Yes, once you die, you lose equipment and stats. A raid can be played by up-to 50 players together but the enemies will get more powerful as the player number in the raid increases. There are randomly generated maps, by the way.
![]()
StarBreak is not a casual game for everyone, and you may be starting your raid with other 40 players, but find out only a few left when you are close to the boss. Team work is not important in this game, and surviving with your skill is paramount.

Coming with these new features is the continuation of the storyline that left at the end of the Fate of Arun expansion.

You will be gearing up for the mission to defeat Dakuryon again and delving into 2 new story-driven dungeons with your allies.
