It feels like ages since we last spoke of Mark Jacobs and City State Entertainment, the end of September in 2011 if you’re keeping track. Since then, the team has been hard at work on what many of us have hoped would be the spiritual sequel to Dark Age of Camelot. Today, Jacobs has graced us with the announcement of Camelot Unchained, an upcoming MMORPG. Why don’t I let Mark Jacobs tell you more about it?
The core concept for the new MMORPG focuses tightly on three key elements, RvR, housing and a true player-owned economy. The central conflict encompasses a trio of diverse, competing realms – Arthurian, Tuatha Dé Danann and Viking – each seeking to assert its dominance over an open and persistent world reflecting the universally familiar but greatly re-imagined Camelot and European mythos. All aspects of this RvR-focused MMORPG are tied into and support the three realms’ ongoing battle for superiority and control. The player housing and crafting systems will also be very significant components and both key closely into the RvR theme.
Three faction, RvR focused, with housing and a player-driven economy? Someone cancel my happy pills, I shan’t be needing them anymore. For more details, Massively.com has a fantastic interview with Mark Jacobs about the concepts and ideas behind Camelot Unchained. City State Entertainment will be launching a Kickstarter campaign soon to raise funding for the MMO.
