There is a past, but the future will be community determined.īitcraft will initially release on PC. The world isn’t just to be built from scratch though, since you’ll be able to explore and get a taste of the history of where things came from and where they are now as you do so. Since the whole world is designed to be editable and open to change, the options for individuals to affect the world and environments will exist, but there may be significant options for communities to spring up and change the terrain, build cities, or even go beyond just one city to creating alliances or even maybe trying to set up empires. They’re even calling it a “community sandbox MMORPG”.Ĭommunity and options are at the heart of the design plans. The independent studio wants to make its mark in giving one world and letting everyone make an impact on it. Instead of focusing on just combat, BitCraft will focus more on community building, exploration, and life skills such as crafting, fishing, or farming.

Though not much is known about the game at this time, it’s clear that BitCraft aims to take a different approach to the MMO genre, both in terms of gameplay and graphics. This means that each character begins as more of a blank slate and can skill up in any direction. Inspiration comes from different genres, like MMORPGs (naturally), survival games, roleplaying, city builders, and strategy games, and blends them into something that wants to offer something beyond just combat. As a sandbox, players will be able to change that world as they interact with it, change the terrain, work solo or work together to create something bigger.
