Tarisland, the upcoming MMORPG from Tencent, dropped a trailer this morning as well as released some new information about the upcoming game, which is launching on PC and Mobile globally this year.
The upcoming MMO takes place on the planet of Taris, and according to YangMin, the producer on the MMO, it aims to go back to the genre's roots.
Via this morning's press release:
"Tarisland is a project our team has been passionately working on for the past three years. For some of us, it's a game we've been dreaming of creating and sharing with players for almost a decade," comments YangMin, producer of Tarisland. “We're going back to the core of what an MMO is, paying attention to the smallest details and refining every inch of the gameplay.”
The trailer shows off multiple different scenes that could play out in Tarisland, from visiting humble towns to fighting giant dragons with a group of friends. While the trailer is clearly CGI, the scene where the party tackles the dragon seems to be set up in a way to try to mirror what gameplay could look like, though obviously, we'll have to wait for official gameplay to finally be released.
