Ever heard ofDawn of Fantasy? Me neither! But now that 505 Games is publishing it, it’s bound to receive some more attention from PC strategy fans.
Dawn of Fantasyis an upcoming fantasy MMORTS by Toronto-based Reverie Worlds, which is currently in closed beta. Outside of the usual building, trading, army building and diplomacy things you’d expect from a game like this, it also does all of it in a persistent world. As elves, orcs or humans, you can fight AI strongholds and empires — as well as other players. Apparently a story-driven system lets you progress through all of this.
Oh, and if anyone wants to explain to me what “Dawn of Fantasy” is supposed to mean, or how to pronounce FMMORTS, I’m all ears. Fuh-muh-moarty-es?
