From GameWatcher: "New World faces a significant challenge vying for a spot in a genre that’s proven notoriously hard to conquer. As the newest face around the block, Amazon Games’ first MMO banks on enough familiarity to easily accommodate existing genre fans, while seeking to carve its own place through a mixture of PvP and PvE modes, departing from tab-targeting combat, and focusing on freedom of choice.
One clear takeaway from our time with New World’s closed beta, it’s that it definitely does a great job of making you want to explore the island of Aeternum while easing you into most of the things you can do there. After surviving a shipwreck and a short but clear tutorial fight against a nasty-looking undead sailor, we were met with the first of many gorgeous vistas."
New World breathes new life into the game on its second anniversary. On October 3rd, 2023, New World will launch its first expansion, Rise of the Angry Earth.
