The Chinese gaming behemoth, Tencent, who owns games like PUBG and League of Legends is finally getting ready to dip their toes in the MMO genre with Tarisland. For months the devs have been creating hype for the game with cheeky teasers, conducting playtests, and giving limited access to content creators and reviewers.

To brew more hype for the title, Tencent has conducted a pre-registration campaign for Tarisland, guild recruitment giveaways through Discord, and even a contest on the X platform that will reward lucky winners with Amazon Gift Cards. They have also released a Season 0 with various features like PvP arenas, PvE modes, and more.

The title has various RPG mechanics such as talent trees, fantasy races, and more. So far, the reports say that it also supports cross-play. The game will be available on Android, iOS, and PC.

Currently, the game is in its final technical test and readying for official release on June 21, 2024. Recently, a cinematic trailer for the game was released on YouTube. Although it didn’t reveal much about the game, it featured a giant red dragon, who could be a boss or the antagonist force of the game.
