Astonia, a 90s MMORPG, Relaunches on Steam as Astonia Reborn

Astonia relaunched on Steam this week as Astonia Reborn. If you haven't heard of this one until now, you aren't alone - this one is a real oldie. The game originally launched back in the late 90s but couldn't compete with juggernauts like Ultima Online and EverQuest and eventually shut down. The code became open source in the mid 2000s and the game has existed in one form or another since. This is the first time the game has come to Steam though and is available as a free to play game.

Astonia Reborn is a free-to-play, classic 2D isometric MMORPG, based on the Astonia 3.5 Engine by Intent Software.

Astonia Reborn ran a alpha/beta server for almost 4 years successfully. We used this time to learn, update and test everything possible. Over 50+ updates were done in this time, some good, some bad but this was all apart of creating a good game to offer to the world on Steam.
