If you are a MMO game fan, you have probably thought a bit about the possibility of playing a game as nice looking as Crysis in the online world. And even if you haven't, I'm still sure you will be very excited to hear that Cyprus-based company Troxit Services has reached an agreement with Crytek to use its eye candy giver game engine CryENGINE 2 for an upcoming MMO project called Forged by Chaos.

There are pretty few details at the moment about the project, but one thing is already crystal
clear and doesn't have to be mentioned by the developers: the game will look great! Apart from that, we know the developers plan to bring us a fantasy world with customizable characters, interactive environments and "many RPG elements". Also, the game will be based on the chaos theme, with steel and battle magic ruling the world.

"CryENGINE 2, with its versatile capabilities, is the perfect fit for Troxit Services/Panzar Studio's promising and ambitious online fantasy project Forged by Chaos. We feel very confident the studio's unique creative talent and experience combined with our tools and technology will result in an outstanding gaming experience," said Faruk Yerli, Managing Director of Crytek.

And we tend to believe that, too, even though we have no idea when the game gets released. And having in mind that the company's motto is "quality before quantity" and the fact that some of the concept art is dated 2003, we might still have a long way ahead.

But when we finally receive Forged by Chaos, we will also get an always evolving character, progressing from novice to warlord while battling his way through life, gaining experience, new weapons and armor and developing Chaos Magic skills. A regular MMORPG with one big advantage: a great engine to power its virtual world. Check its official website for more information.
