Any alternatives? (VR mmo's)

[Chris]

Been eyeing this game for some time but it looks like the ship sank recently so i'm wondering if any of you guys have alternatives.

Orbus is in maintenance mode and likely to be shut down soon too. Right now there isn't anything running worth while. Ilysia was basically a dumpster fire they are trying to make into something, but that won't last or even make it out of EA. Really need some bigger company to make one and not these tiny indie companies

Orbus still has life, and devs that are working on updates.
It is one of the best games ever too.

I have my eye on ascent quest, but its going to be a 4 person co-op with social hubs. Not a true MMO, but probably more like the old DDO game.

Ilysia is unfortunately a dumpster fire. One almost no-one even noticed was burning. I expect it will shutdown not long after Zenith.

Orbis I haven't touched in years. I'm glad to hear its still being worked on. But, how are they going to bring new players in? Or get old players back?

As much as I like the idea of a VR MMO, I don't think there is enough of a playerbase there. VR growth has been slow and some big players have dropped out. There are some interesting games due out soon. Sales #'s will give some indication as to the state of VR in general.

I do hope there are some big projects in the works, but anyone who invested $ in VR games is probably sweating buckets right now.

Late reply, but Ilysia's still a thing and they're doing "okay". There's also Oathbreakers, but that's Oculus exclusive, open PVP and the dev likes to go missing.
Freeland VR is ""supposed"" to be a kind of "VRChat-but-also-MMORPG" Ready Player ONe clone thing but it looks pretty bad.

There's a new one which started development in 2024, called Eldramoor.
It's still early in development, but probably one to keep an eye on.

imo the old orbus was way better it actually was like a real mmo when they changed it to just the one town to get quests it kind of made it not feel like a real mmo
