Astellia Launches Later This Year And Will Be At PAX South

Astellia is a modern fantasy MMORPG that is on the way later on in 2019, but fans will be able to check it out at Pax South. Studio 8 will have a first-look at PAX, and several beta tests will be coming throughout the year, to prepare for the 2019 launch. In Astellia, players collect dozens of magical companions, known as Astells, and take them into battle. Open world combat, competitive team battlegrounds, and a massive, three-faction persistent war await. There will also be plenty of group and solo dungeons for players to tackle in this game world. Studio 8 will also be hosting a panel at PAX South, “No more Pay to Win with Astellia”. This will take place at the Falcon Theatre on Sunday, January 20th at 12:30 pm EST / 9:30 am PST. It will also be live-streamed on Twitch/PAX here or here.

“We’re beyond excited to finally be able to show off Astellia at this year’s PAX South. We’re confident that we’re creating an MMORPG for fans of the genre, and one that they’ll be proud to call home later this year.” – Westley Conner, Producer on Astellia at Barunson. “We know the fear that so many MMOs wind up as Pay-2-Win in this genre, and we’re committed to making sure that Astellia never veers in that direction. Instead, we’re all about Play-to-Win, and we can’t wait to explain how at PAX South.”
