Corepunk is an immersive, open-world MMORPG and MOBA that combines deep character customization, an intriguing fog-of-war mechanic, and seamless PvE and PvP experiences to create a dynamic, player-driven world. Its diverse classes and intricate skill trees allow for unique playstyles, while its rich, cyber-fantasy setting and engaging storylines draw players into an adventure that’s both strategic and visually stunning.
Early Access for Corepunk features three fully-voiced story episodes, a robust crafting and gathering system, six diverse character classes, 15 challenging world bosses, and much more.
IMPORTANT: Corepunk is currently in an active development stage, and Early Access does not represent the final state of the product. With the start of Early Access, the game is entering the last stage of alpha testing, wherein the dev team is fixing bugs, expanding existing systems, continuing to polish the game, adding a lot of content, and getting ready for the beta stage and full release. Corepunk is planned to launch in full by the end of 2025.
What to Expect in Corepunk’s Early Access Launch:
- Expansive Open World: Three unique biomes (forest, swamps, and steppes), each with its own set of enemies and challenges
- Story Content: Three fully-voiced episodes from Season One, along with a substantial number of side quests, totaling 350 quests
- Deep Itemization: Three tiers of itemization for each type—artifacts, weapons, chips, runes, and consumables—with plans to expand further
- Robust Crafting and Gathering: A deep system that remains relevant throughout your journey, featuring four gathering professions, four crafting professions, and a universal cooking profession, enhanced by the synthesis machine for even more crafting possibilities
- Character Progression: Eight passive talent branches with 120 unique mechanics and 22 weapon specialization talents for each class, allowing for extensive customization
- Diverse Classes: Six weapon specializations (classes/heroes) at launch, with more to come. The developer will release one specialization (class/hero) each month

Key Features of Corepunk Include:
- A Cultural Affair: Corepunk‘s world is divided into four cultures: Quadarri, Elanien, Yorner, and Faiden. Depending on which you align with, each culture offers different skills, clothing customization options, weapons, vehicles, and more
- Good Old MMO Gameplay: Fans of the MMORPG genre will feel right at home with familiar genre standbys like crafting and mining professions, arenas and battlegrounds, guilds, farms, pack deliveries, quests, randomly generated dungeons, raids, and profound lore
- A Mode for Every Mood: Corepunk offers several different game modes, such as PvE/PvP extraction instances, PvE parties, solo instances, battlegrounds, and more
- Detailed Hero Customization: Customize your hero to reflect your style, whether it be a grizzled war hero, a cute but deadly maiden, or a grizzled war hero who is also a cute but deadly maiden. The sky’s the limit, soldier
Built around an open, seamless world, deep character development, and progression through leaderboards in both PvE and PvP session-based game modes, Corepunk delivers a compelling, versatile experience sure to entice a myriad of different players.
