What is Chronicles of Elyria?

Chronicles of Elyria is an in-development persistent world role-playing game designed from the ground up to address the many problems and shortcomings in today's conventional MMORPGs.

Rather than being grindy and repetitive, Chronicles of Elyria allows players to make meaningful choices about the role they play in the world and, in turn, their choices have meaningful consequences on those around them. Not just a theme park or sandbox MMO, we define Chronicles of Elyria as an event-driven story MMO, with a gripping narrative that is experienced across multiple in-game life-times as your characters are born, age, and die.

With a functioning eco-system, a closed economy with finite resources, and a political system that lets players engage in the Dance of Dynasties, we believe Chronicles of Elyria is the game MMO players have long been waiting for – a game in which their choices and presence matters in the world.
