Free-To-Play Mobile MMORPG Warhammer Odyssey Announced

Looking to get your Warhammer fix while you're on the go? Games Workshop and Virtual Realms have just announced a new free-to-play mobile MMORPG set in the Old World of the Warhammer universe.

"Morrslieb the Chaos Moon grows large in the skies above the Old World, under it’s wicked visage doomsayers take to the city streets and those creatures who would bring the walls of man crumbling down become ever more bold. However, all is not lost! Those that would stand against the darkness and chaos that threatens civilisation have come together once more, honouring ancient pacts as they did in times long past. Now is the time for heroes, now is the time to forge your odyssey."

According to the official press release, Warhammer Odyssey will feature three playable races: Human, Dwarf, and High Elf; and six classes to choose from: Archmahe, Slayer, Witch Hunter, Warrior Priest, Shadow Warrior, and Engineer. The devs promise regular episodic updates to continue to expand both the game and the world itself.

Warhammer Odyssey is currently under development for both iOS and Android devices. A launch date has yet to be revealed but interested fans can now pre-register on the game's official site to receive notifications and for a chance to participate in the coming beta tests.
