Hound13 Announces 2 New 'AAA Open-World Action MMORPGs': Project D and Project M

Hound13 is in the process of developing 2 different MMOs. Or, at least one of these is an MMO, the other is an online RPG. Which, if you think about it, equates to pretty much the same thing. Project D is going to be a cross-platform Unreal Engine 4 MMO featuring cross-play functionality between PC and Mobile devices. Much like Genshin Impact, Honkai Impact, Tower of Fantasy and other popular cross-platform games.
Then we have Project M which is going to be an online narrative driven action RPG completely for PC. Yes, no mobile, no cross-platform functionality.

Alas, we have 2 brand new games to potentially be excited for. One is a cross-play MMO like Tower of Fantasy and Genshin Impact if it were an MMO.. and the other is a PC online RPG like Lost Ark.. but hopefully not with a top-down isometric point of view.
Absolutely no information has been released pertaining to the release date for either game, nor do we know the depth of the character creation, the combat system for Project D - Project M has action combat so we have a slight idea of how that'll play.
We don't know the business model, but judging by the developer, they'll both likely be completely free to play.

When you say "AAA" where not talking about batteries right? ✌️😂

Let me tell you, sir: I admire how positive you are. When I see "Korean MMO" I tend to keep away as far as I can.

[ahmadabidzainalabidin]

If people from dragon nest is involve, i bet the combat will be good, now am looking forward for this game

[brianoleary]

They both seem interesting. Can't wait until I see gameplay for both.

So we got (Project M)ain Dish, (Project D)essert and (Project BBQ) this is going to be great MMORPG meet up with good food :3

Hound13 is a South Korean developer - and I know what you're thinking. "Oh, yay, a Korean MMO." And, yes, new Korean MMOs. But just because it's Korean, doesn't mean.. well, okay, it does kind of allude to a certain type of business model. But just because a game - or in this case, 2 games have the potential to be pay to win, doesn't mean that they necessarily will be, and judging a game before it has the chance to even garner the attention of the playerbase is just promoting meaningless hate and negativity.

When I saw Project M in the title I immediately thought of the mod for brawl

[JC-okyx]

Me: Awesome! New MMO’s to try out, more variety is always good!
Also me: (logs into World of Warcraft for the millionth time)

[aegismsg]

Hound13 has a game Hundred Souls: The Last Savior a mobile game. Which is quite good!

[lichwarri]

I feel like 2021 is the Renaissance of the MMORPG Genre!

[woteveruk]

i wouldnt necessarily say that " online action rpg" is an mmo, genshin impact is technically an online action rpg but it isnt an mmo, an mmo isnt just an online rpg its massively multiplayer, but online action rpg could mean 4 player co op,
also i hope with the action rpg they include controller support, so many action rpgs on pc are difficult to play on keyboard and mouse and so much easier on controller

[LethalSkill]

Project M sounds interesting. PC mmorpg, action combat. unreal engine 4, and that witch character looked great.

[silverlotus]

Garena funding Hound13 more or less guarantees that we in the SEA Region will be able to play these upcoming games which is always nice cause fck not being able to play something cause you live in a certain region.

Looking at you Lost Ark...I am looking at you.. *cries*

[zerooskil]

im 100% with you, doing the stereotype and judging on mass is a fucked up thing to do, every game deserves a fair chance no matter who made it, also appreciate you getting us this vid i had no idea about any of this !! tho ima be honest not too hype for anything first person xD, also i hate the multi character necessity style genshin formula i hope no one else does it and lets us build our one op single character period for all content

[seraph]

HOUND13 made 100 soul mobile arpg, i think that was their first funded project

[norielbeato]

oh, so that's hound13. Kinda familiar with that. They made HUNDRED SOUL, its a decent mobile rpg tho.

[Gvantsa]

Either way I’ll be checking them out when they’re released

[salaheddinefdl]

I think this type of games just keep getting "announced" but never show up in the end

[drkmgic]

The moment you said Korean mmo I already tuned out lol

[kriskropd]

We're very passionate about what we do. We would like to present to you, Project M and Project D...
