Ether Online is on its way to becoming one of the first blockchain-powered Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPG).
While functionally a cryptocollectible, the game looks to utilise the obsessive gear treadmills of MMORPGs like World of Warcraft. Through crafting or trading, players gather equipment and pets to take on each other, or team up against world bosses.
While the final gameplay mechanics have yet to be revealed, for now, players can build up power by collecting gear.
Ether Online is available through OPSkins and Worldwide Asset eXchange, with assets tradable with WAX Tokens, Bitcoin, ETH, US dollars, and Euros, among others.
“The freedom to collaborate, earn and create is what makes blockchain games revolutionary,” said Samuel Kuit, co-founder of Ether Online.
“With our years of experience developing RPG games, we wanted to create something with actual RPG game mechanics unlike anything else; equipment crafting, pets, guilds, mounts and much more. We are excited to be one of the first game developers to adopt the blockchain, and from our early feedback, our fans seem to be just as excited.”
