Gran Saga is a stunning anime MMORPG developed by NPIXEL. This studio was founded by former talent from Netmarble who have worked on the successful Seven Knights game. The Gran Saga MMORPG is crafted using Unreal Engine 4 and is targeting the PC and mobile devices as the platforms of choice, a trend that seems to be emerging with the likes of Genshin Impact and Sky: Children of the Light, among others. Interestingly enough, it is going to feature cross-platform play, so are you going to pick PC or mobile?

The visuals are extremely appealing and colorful, with an anime style that isn't surprising, and yet manages to catch the eye. With amazing effects and classes that may look generic but still have plenty of charm, this game quite a looker, with early Gran Saga gameplay promising a visual feast.

One of the most promising features in the Gran Saga MMO is the gran weapon system. With 20 weapons initially revealed, these will provide different playstyles for players who are likely to experiment until they find their favorite support. The weapons come with fantastic designs and can be as diverse as hammers, turrets, staffs, claws, and more.

The gran weapon system is aiming to replace the traditional and tiresome combat power rating that most MMORPGs still resort to, including Black Desert Mobile and World of Dragon Nest. The idea is to give players more options that divert their focus from the vertical progression system.

NPIXEL asserts that it is placing a great effort on storytelling, featuring a diverse cast and an intricate narrative to keep players invested.

The Gran Saga release date is 2020 in Korea, with a global launch likely to come sometime later.
