Lost Ark

72% 4/5 Platforms PC (Microsoft Windows) Genre Role-playing (RPG), Hack and slash/Beat 'em up, Adventure Developer Tripod Studio Publisher Smilegate RPG, Amazon Game Studios, GameOn, My.com Release December 04, 2018 <div data-cloudcity="" data-type=«button» data-pid=«XZ1kjiYB5K» data-limit=«1» data-cta_pattern="$%price %merchant" id=«dtcc-XZ1kjiYB5K»> Lost Ark is an MMORPG played from a top-down perspective.

It’s a bit like a mash-up of Diablo III and World of Warcraft, with plenty of MMO tropes (such as teaming up for dungeons, grinding out levels, and a never-ending quest log) meshed with fast-paced combat that sees you slaying hordes of enemies in the blink of an eye. Its campaign is a bit long, but fans of ARPGs and MMOs alike will find hundreds of hours of fun with Lost Ark’s endgame.
