Allods Online is a free to play MMORPG from Gala-Net which is set to be released sometime this winter according to their website. Allods is currently in closed beta and we will be giving away some beta keys later this week so make sure to check back later as it will be on a first come first serve basis.
At first look Allods Online looks to be just another fantasy MMORPG, but looks can be deceiving. Allods is fantasy sci-fi mix reminiscent of Final Fantasy VII. There are 6 races in the game which are split into two warring factions. On one side you have The Leauge (good guys) and the other, The Empire (bad guys). Each side has three races you can select from, most being the common races that you would find in any fantasy MMORPG. The 6 races are split into 8 archetypes and 28 classes.
Starting off with The League, you have Kanians (Humans), Elves and Gibberlings. If you ever played any MMORPG, then you already have a good idea of what the human and elven races can do. The Gibberlings however are these small cute, furry animals that remind me of Snaft from Thundercats. Gibberlings are stealthy, tricky and quick creatures which sounds like they would be fun to play.
On the other side, The Empire, you have Xadaganians (humans), Orcs and Arisen. Again, I’m sure you are already familiar with the human and orc races so I’ll just skip them and go straight to the Arisen. The Arisen are undead beings that have dedicated themselves to science and technology. Because of this the Arisen are sorta like the Borg in Star Trek having combined their bodies with technology.
Allods Online takes place on the planet Sarnaut, which is split into continents and islands. In order to travel throughout the continents gamers have a variety of ways to get around, one being in a massive ship which players will be able to get later on in the game.
From what I’ve seen of Allods Online so far, it looks great and it seems others agree as well. Allods Online won Best Game 2009 & Audience Choice awards from the Russian Game Developers Conference. Check out some of the screenshots below.
