Life is Feudal: MMO is a multiplayer sandbox RPG set in medieval times, featuring free terraforming, a rich crafting system, preset and modular building construction, engaging survival aspects and no-target physics-based combat, and a unique formation system.

Life is Feudal: MMO is an open-world survival masterpiece that takes its players on an epic journey—from being stranded alone to building a community and dominating an empire. It incorporates deep crafting mechanics alongside the ability to build towns, castles, and fortresses, establish alliances with other players or antagonize enemies, as well as terraform the world of Abella.

The game starts off with the player character awakening in a strange land with no knowledge of their past. From there, the players are offered the chance to explore the lush, intricate, and dangerous open world, be it through hunting, gathering, or finding allies. Encounters with distinct tribes will encourage interactions, whether friendly or aggressive, as the players shape the evolving world to fit their own medieval feudal vision.

Life is Feudal: MMO is a large-scale group-focused RPG, that places players in a highly realistic, zero-magic, medieval world where danger lurks around every corner. It's up to players to work together to find resources, craft tools and team up to build a fully functioning feudal society in an unforgiving archaic world. Players may find a place in society as a vassal, a knight, a farmer or even royalty, as their guild builds and expands their medieval societies.

While players may start their adventure in Life is Feudal: MMO alone, as they gather and craft supplies needed to make it to the next day, they will quickly meet up with others to form groups, then guilds, and finally work their way up to complete medieval societies and nation-states. Life is Feudal: MMO is a realistic social experience, where the best way to thrive in the world is to work together and build a fully functioning society, where everyone has a place, from the most basic hunters and gatherers, to farmers, soldiers and civic leaders. There's a place for everyone in Life is Feudal: MMO, and a world ready for them to explore!

Long Tale Games is delighted to announce the relaunch of Life is Feudal: MMO on LTG Multiverse, the company’s own gaming platform. The publisher is determined to preserve the staples of the medieval survival simulator and plans to dedicate special care to the support and development of separate versions and variants of the game, including those proposed or developed by the community. To ensure the best gaming experience, the publisher has launched a playtest that is available to all players who have purchased the subscription.

Long Tale Games will launch the subscription version of the game as the first variant, which will be the starting point for a series of variants to come from the company. This hardcore version of the original game is meant to give all players an equal chance to enjoy the game by turning off all paid boosters, the premium shop and other pay-to-win features. The subscription is already available on the website

The publisher plans to develop multiple game variants designed to enrich the gameplay experience in close collaboration with the community. One of these upcoming editions is the Open Economy variant, which will introduce a dynamic economic system into the game. All information on other potential game variants will be announced later.

A community-driven development is one of the company’s essential principles. Long Tale Games believes that the players’ ideas and passions can be the driving force behind making the gaming experience more vibrant and intriguing, and it intends to involve the players in the development process, creating a positive environment for feedback exchange between the developer and the community. Important upcoming updates will be covered on social media.

Life is Feudal: MMO, previously developed by Bitbox, will be published by Long Tale Games after agreeing upon conditions and issues regarding the game's future. The game will be available and operated by Long Tale Games all around the world, with the exception of China. 

Long Tale Games will carefully collect all relevant questions from the community and answer them during an AMA session, which will be announced soon. Hardcore Life is Feudal: MMO players, as well as those who are ready to discover the world of Abella for the first time, are welcome to join.

The publisher will be sharing the specifics of the upcoming relaunch, including the details of the playtest, on the project’s social media.

Key Features:

  • Terraforming & Construction: deform terrain - Dig tunnels, raise or level hills, and build structures like stone towers, castles and more.
  • Battle formation system: Players can be grouped up into battle formations to fight better together and gain damage bonuses.
  • Crafting: Create tools, weapons and more from resources found within the world.
  • Realistic Player Damage: Combat damage depends on weapons used, armor worn, your character's current physical condition, etc.
  • Full weather effects: There are five climate zones with distinct weather and length of seasons. Weather and climate have a real and meaningful impact. For example, trees grow better in colder temperatures and farming is best in warmer climate zones.
  • Survival gameplay: Players must take into account things like hunger, blood loss, frostbite, and wild animals.
  • Complex food and cooking system: Multiple ingredients when mixed with cooking skills create recipes to help keep players strong. Higher quality food equals better skill bonuses. It pays to keep a cooking master in the group, since their meals can provide bonuses to everyone.
  • Double health and stamina bars: One HP bar measures physical health and the other consciousness. Lose all soft HP and you pass out, but lose all hard HP and you die. The Hard Stamina bar determines how long you can run long distance, while the Soft Bar measures sprinting and short duration activity.
  • A huge persistent world: Explore a massive, no-loading screen world that spans 49 servers and would take several hours to cross on foot.
  • Private property/land claims: Players and groups can lay claim to territory, which will protect it and buildings on it from random looters.
