Gaijin inCubator and Three Whales Studio announce
Age of Water, an
upcoming MMORPG that fearlessly leans into the
Waterworld concept. This game set
on a water-engulfed planet is set to enter closed beta testing this summer.
Signups are now underway on the
Age of Water
Website, so if you're interested, water you waiting for? Here's a
Closed Beta Trailer to help you decide if this floats your boat. Here's more
on this game and how it can satisfy your thirst for adventure, and possibly
recycled pee:
Age of Water takes place on a water covered Earth. Survivors
live on the roofs of high-rise buildings and on the tops of other man-made
islands and natural objects. Players freely roam the boundless open sea world in
a motorboat or small ship, recruiting new crew members, upgrading equipment and
weapons, fighting or trading, completing quests, and uncovering the mysteries of
the Age of Water.
Dozens of hulls and hundreds of parts are available, from which players can
assemble anything ranging from a small boat to a hefty 30 meters long vessel.
Players can equip it with gear, armor, and weapons. Recruiting team members to
build a crew, man the guns and cannons, complete other vital tasks is equally as
important. Players can establish their own strategic naval case to hideout from
enemies, to organize production, and get ready to explore the vast open sea.
Beware, enemies and pirates are everywhere waiting to attack and pillage.
Battles can end in destruction or watercrafts can be captured in battle. In
addition, it’s possible to meet other players, interact with them, invite them
to the team or help with the quest. But far from safe zones, players can also
attack others. In Age of Water, everyone decides what their role will be – a
peaceful traveler or a bloodthirsty
pirate.
