Era Zero

Era Zero was a planned fantasy MMORPG built around a “magic meets machinery” premise, where spellcraft powers steam-era tech and battlefield hardware.

With promises of large-scale clashes that mix sorcery and engines, the project generated curiosity, but ultimately never reached a wider release.

Type: MMORPG
Release Date: Canceled
Pros: +Four distinct classes with different roles. +Vehicle combat as a core system. +Emphasis on big battles with machines and magic.
