After more than six years of development and nearly two years of closed testing, ArcheAge introduces players to a fantasy sandbox world where they begin their journey on one of two continents: Nuia and Harihara. From there, everything else is up to the player, from what character they play, to where they go, and why.

The game promises to remove the restrictions that have hindered other MMORPGs, especially concerning character classes and skills.

Discover the world of ArcheAge where freedom rules in a visually stunning world you won’t forget. Forge your own path by building unique homes and castles or farms that support the economy while banding together to fight and defend your fortune in epic PvP battles.

Kakao Games will act as publisher for developer XL Games, beginning the partnership representing their MMORPG ArcheAge.

Released in 2014, ArcheAge quickly became a fixture in MMO gaming. Featuring an open content, sandbox environment set in the mystical world of Erenor, ArcheAge offers players deep customization of skills and experiences across the mystical land of Erenor. From trading on the high seas, tending a humble farm, being an adventurous rogue and much more, each player’s experience is wholly unique to them.

“We are proud to begin our journey with XL Games, and launch this partnership as publisher for ArcheAge,“ says Kakao Games CEO Kyehyun Cho. “We look forward to being an active part of this groundbreaking MMO, which has brought so many fond memories to players over the years, and supporting new and exciting endeavors under the ArcheAge banner in the future.”

As an initial step in the Kakao Games/XL Games relationship, a global build synchronization will ensure updates and new content arrive for ArcheAge players in North America, Europe and Korea simultaneously. Further changes in support of the game and its valued community will be highlighted in the coming weeks and months.

Kakao Games will service ArcheAge in the Americas, Europe and Oceania this December.
