Planar Ascent MMORPG | Someone has to live here

What we are building

An MMO that rewards planning and people.

A small party facing a huge horned fiend in a dark ruined hall.

Six to a party

Nobody kills this alone.

Tanks, healers, controllers and damage dealers. Calm the two dangerous adds while your tank holds the main enemy. Interrupt the healer. Have the ward ready before the heavy hit lands. Twelve-player raids sit above that.

A rune-wheel glowing teal on a dark artificer's bench.

32 skills to build across

A weapon you can't equip yet is a goal.

The planner shows exactly what stands between you and the gear you want. Getting there might take a crafter, a friend's buff and a run of augment upgrades, in a world run on sealcraft, clockwork and bound spirits.

A crowded lantern-lit market street at night.

A shared home

Towns matter because people do.

Cinderwatch and Deeprest are public cities with clinics, boards, markets and workshops. Crafters have reputations. Organizations have histories. Your character and what they have earned stay yours, season after season.

Three answers to the same crack

Choose who you stand with.

The Sealward Compact

Close the portals. Enforce the law. Restore the seals, whoever it shuts out.

The Free Marches

Open roads, free settlements, planar wealth in local hands, profiteers included.

The Unbound Concord

Traders, scholars, refugees and expeditions. Neutral, until neutral means complicit.

Where it stands

Persistent characters and skill training
Six-player parties and companions

Nothing here is public yet. The test art isn't ready to show, and all of this can change.
