Players have the option of selecting one of eight unique characters: Hades (the Mother Land’s leather clad goddess of death), Ara (a Caribbean princess with oceanic allies at her side), Jerry (the star slugger – hitter – of her hometown high school’s baseball team), Audrey (a former abuse victim turned emotionless, gun-toting veteran and mercenary), B (a mysterious blind boy whose life is filled with painkillers, constantly suffering due to the two types of unnatural blood with flow through his veins and allow him to extend his two swords), Mary (a former farm girl with serious physical strength, capable of grappling with the best of them), Nagne (a Korean swordsman with an odd affliction of acting childishly when struck on the head), and Derrick (a gladiator who has the looks of a powerful anime character, stifled physically only slightly by a war injury).įor once, female characters outnumber the males in this game. This section of the review is showcasing one of my favorite features of the game – simply because it is one of the best I have ever seen in an MMO game. This cinematic is of an amazing style, and serves to quickly pull players into its engaging story, introducing the lore of the game in a way that is both enjoyable and interesting.

The gameplay begins with a movie-quality cinematic narrated – as like every other narration found in the game – a Japanese woman, with English subtitles automatically provided for those who need them (which is likely everybody, since the default language setting was English). The soundtracks provided are wonderfully chosen, with the music adding to the experience of the gameplay quite well.

HeroWarz makes use of three dimensional, high definition graphics, which are very pleasing to the eye. Now, many years later, the worlds have been torn apart by politics as the elite come to be more well-known, and Maya has been imprisoned in a conscious sleep, forever screaming in terror. Unfortunately, he was not aware of this power, and when the day came that he dreamed of a massive flood, it wiped out nearly everyone in the vicinity. This young boy held a power unbeknownst to anyone in his world: the ability to make his dreams come to life. Maya is the former keeper of a special crystal necklace, the stone of which once housed the power of the original elite – a child named Ibrahim. In this multi-genre MMORPG, players take on the role of specially gifted elites from various worlds, summoned to a land known as “the Third World” in order to aid in a grave mission: rescue the woman known as Maya.

HeroWarz is a game in which unique should be a trademark – because this one screams of individuality in the vest of ways. Herowarz is a brand new 2.5D action MMORPG developed by A.Storm and published by KOG Games.
