Only a few years after Amazon launched New World, it's launching again in the form of New World: Aeternum. This new version of the game is being billed as a"spiritual successor" to the original MMO, but it's also a mix of console port , remaster and big update.

One very notable change is how much focus is being put on solo play. In the press release, the word"MMO" was nowhere to be seen. Instead, Amazon describes it as an"action RPG". The whole thing can be played on your own, and you'll be able to experience all the story beats without needing to team up.

This is still, however, absolutely an MMO. In a presentation ahead of today's reveal, the developers emphasised that it's still a shared experience, if you want it to be, and you'll still be able to group up for expeditions and embark on faction-based PvP wars. Indeed, there's more group activities coming, including the first 10-player raid and a PvP zone., I never went back.
