Notes & links
Might and Delight coined 'TMORPG' for its small-server design. The online servers closed on July 31, 2026 (15:00 CEST), ending the multiplayer game; it simultaneously left Early Access, dropped to ~$5, and opened up to modding as an offline single-player title. Characters had to be downloaded before the shutdown to carry into offline play.
