Here are the 30 best free mmorpgs to play right now
MMORPGs offer beautiful landscapes to explore and find treasure, challenging team oriented dungeons, incentivized player killing, and diverse creatures to tame or destroy. If you desire less bloodthirsty gameplay, many mmorpgs offer the chance to simply sail the ocean, farm land, craft rare items, or become an auction house god. The best part about a mmorpg is not paying for it. With that said, we invite you to explore our list of the best free mmorpgs on the market.

The Sith want to destroy the Republic to prove their power, strength, and gain control of the entire universe. The Republic must combat this evil power to save the planets from death and destruction.

The game was meant to give the player full control on the characters personality/morality. Then you will decide a starting race, and begin your journey into some of the most intricate lore available. While you unveil this lore, you will have access to thrilling cut scenes, and wonderful voice acting.
As you advance your characters skills and explore all the planets, you will unlock the ability to join in ship battles, dungeons, and raids.

Lord of the Rings is one of the most popular series in the world and has been for many years. This online mmorpg offers players the chance to live in the world of LOTR. Prepare to live the lore while you battle the great enemies of Middle Earth left and right. Like most mmorpg’s you must kill things and complete quests to gain experience, and unlock new skills. Be wary of your hp (or named “morale” in LOTR Online), because enemies are lurking in the shadows. You won’t even be able to use advanced magic against them, because none of the 5 wizards in game are player controlled. You do obtain special skills that cost magic points, but don’t expect to be on level with Gandalf.
Lord of the Rings Online really offers all the great aspects of a mmorpg. You can set up a house in the man, elf, dwarf, or hobbit zones, gain reputation, run around in fellowships (parties), increase your skill with special traits, craft away essential items, and most of all explore the world we all watched growing up.

8) Tera
TERA: Secrets and Shadows Launch Trailer
An Argon race has begun destroying and taking control of land in the world of Tera, created by the gods Arun and Shara. Over time several races were created, with unique traits and abilities. This caused many internal struggles, allowing the Argons to gain more control. You must fight the battle between the races, and the common enemy.
Tera Online has been most widely known for its action combat system and beautiful graphics. While there isn’t a lot of emphasis on lore when it comes to Tera, they really have mastered the immersive environment. Unlike most mmorpgs, Tera does not have factions, but a wide arrange of races and classes which helps the player immerse themselves in the game. This means your enemies are found in pve aspects, as well as open world pvp.
Basically as you play you have the option to “flag up” and kill your fellow players. One minute you could be happily killing some deer, and the other your face down in the dirt waiting to resurrect. Everyone could be an enemy at any time (save in the cities).
For more pvp you can queue up for different battlegrounds, participate in some arenas, and pump up your guild for some massive guild vs guilds. There is also plenty of pve to do in challenging dungeons, and of course, their BAM system. Throughout the world you find these BIG ASS MONSTERS (BAM’s) crawling around…and you have to kill them for the loot. There are a lot of competitive play and achievements to collect in the world of Tera.

9) ArcheAge
ArcheAge: Revelation Launch Trailer
Archeage offers an open world sandbox world for online gamers to enjoy. If there was any game that tried to offer it all, it would be Archeage. You have your typical leveling experience, but with so much more added in than other mmorpgs. You have a fun housing system, naval combat as a deadly pirate, plenty of open world pvp, an intricate crafting system, the ability to farm, and even raise pets to battle or become mounts.
One of the more interesting aspects of the game is the jury service. Yes, you can’t even escape jury duty in an online game. Players who have racked up bounties and crimes will stand on trial for their crimes. Random players will be given jury duty summons, which they can decline (yay!). If you do show up, expect to decide how long to send this player to jail. Now, once in jail you can work for your freedom, or try escaping through dedicated digging. Either way, you will find your skills extremely limited in jail, and quite an experience trying to escape. Complete your civic duty of having fun in Archeage.

Everything you kill will leave behind a special soul that when cleansed, will give you powerful boosts in battle. While you gain strength from souls, you will also need to retrieve powerful weapons and gear.

11) Eden Eternal
Eden Eternal Official Trailer
You enter a world previously torn by chaos and greed. Unknown heroes/guardians have begun reshaping and rebuilding the world for the better. It is your job to quell the violence, and promote peace throughout the kingdoms.
While Eden Eternal offers the cliché mmorpg qualities, it actually focuses on some rather unused game playstyles. The biggest aspects that put Eden Eternal on its own track is the class and guild system. There are around 21 classes to choose from, making the game extremely diverse to experience. However, the guild system is really where this online game shines.
First of all the more gold you put into a guild, the bigger your guild can be. The more people you have donating the more likely it is you will succeed. As a guild you will need to team up and complete daily quests and contributions, in order to unlock a manageable guild town. Here you can build fame and statuses for guild members with a small gold fee. Participate in Territory Wars, which have guilds fighting against each other for control of certain objectives for up to 30 minutes. While there is a whole system of gathering fame leading to guild ranking, the real battle doesn’t begin until the weekend. Here you compete in knockout 1v1 rounds between guilds to fight for the top 3 spots.
You could be the person who changes it all for your guild. Make a name for yourself, and your guild, in this highly competitive (and free) mmorpg.

13) Dungeons and Dragons Online
A timeless game if any, is Dungeons and Dragons Online. Although it has underwent name changes over the years, Dungeons and Dragons has always remained the great mmorpg that it is.
Through the game you must level, and the best way to do so is by questing. Usually quests are very straightforward, but in Dungeons and Dragons they take quests to a new level. There are six different types of quests, in a range of easy to challenging (solo to epic). The more difficult the quest, the better the loot. However, the more players you have, the harder the bosses will be.
Another aspect that makes Dungeons and Dragons iconic, is the reincarnation system they put in place. You have the opportunity to almost completely wipe a character, and in the process gain a special ability. Yes you will have to relevel from basically scratch, but could that ability be the difference between success and failure end game? D&D is a great game, for those who want to accomplish great feats and gather rare treasures.

Once you are a god, you must battle to fend off the hordes of invasions, and increase your power.
Skyforge has given players a highly intensive game to play with unique playstyle. Instead of just running around one big world on an open map, Skyforge has implemented a sci-fi take on the world and dungeons. There is a big map (Divine Observatory) that when you open it there are multiple instances/worlds you can travel to. Some are large open world maps with quests and objectives. Others are faster paced dungeons. Here you defeat bosses for good loot, and complete objectives for bonus awards once the instance is completed. There are quite a lot of different rewards to be received, and each has a way to improve your gameplay.
There is competitive pvp (battlegrounds and arenas), and more challenging group pve play. The best part of Skyforge is the ability to change classes on one character whenever you want.

19) Wakfu
Wakfu is a great game if you are looking for something to really sink your teeth into for hours upon hours. First of all, there are around 70 dungeons to work through as you level up, and plenty of explorable land (including islands). Be careful when traveling, because like in the real world, the ecosystem is fragile. If you go on a massacre spree for a certain species, you might just kill it off forever. Wakfu realizes what this could mean for all the land they created, but they are giving it to you- whether you decide to protect or destroy it.
Since the world was destroyed by a devastating flood, it’s up to you and your friends to rebuild society. Every role/job needs fulfilled, so finding your sweet spot is important (fighter, merchant, craftsmen, etc). Become a citizen of one of the four nations available, and work on your political speech because you could become governor (aka top dog). This is your chance to form a world how you please, and possibly make life changing decisions.
Save the planet from extinction by rebuilding and nurturing the world.
The world was left in ruins, so now you have to explore to put all the pieces together again.
20) Vindictus
Although Tera gets the reputation for an amazing action combat system, Vindictus actually did it earlier. This free to play mmorpg has kept modern with all its interesting content updates over the years. One of the most unique aspects of Vindictus is that in order to gain experience to level up and improve your skills, you must enter dungeons. You can enter these dungeons alone or with a party, but note that the more players inside the harder the enemies will get. Inside you will be able to complete quests and grind away some experience.
An interesting feature of Vindictus, is that it actually takes place hundreds of years before the other online mmorpg “Mabinogi”. Live the story of this war-ruined world through their “season” system of updating, which gives the game a great way to divide up their lore. Become an experienced adventurer through your unique character skills and combo driven combat.
Take on a boss one on one to prove your worth and strength to the entire world.
Death is your only prize for failing on your travels. Seems better not to fail, in my opinion.
21) Aura Kingdom
If you’ve ever wanted to play a game with pets, cuteness, and an interesting storyline your search is over. Aura Kingdom is a wonderful casual mmorpg, with a great kit for all types of players. You will attempt to protect the world from destruction by a demonic army, with companions to aid you.
One of the most interesting things about this mmorpg is that as soon as you enter the game, after character creation, you are given a choice of four different Eidolon. An Eidolon is a pet that travels, fights, and grows with you. Through these travels you will obtain more Eidolon’s and they will track your history/kills in the game and let you know whenever you want.

These dragon stones will allow communication with the god Althea, and ultimately lead to her freedom and safety.

26) Age of Wushu
Before Age of Wushu begins a corrupted and powerful emperor/founder of the Ming Dynasty that brought along martial arts, began killing everyone off out of suspicion. It was die or bend the knee once the Royal Guard came knocking down your door. After the emperor died, a secret manual containing powerful martial art powers began circulating throughout the country. The different factions became hostile, lusting after this manual for themselves. Martial arts was no longer simple, but powerful and sophisticated. This is when the Age of Wushu was born.

27) Tree of Savior
Tree of Savior started with generous Goddesses equipping the kingdom with bountiful gifts and abilities for many years. Slowly, the prayers of the carefree citizens became unheard, and with time destruction followed. A divine tree grew and began to spawn treacherous creatures out for blood. With a destroyed capital, and fear in the kingdoms heart, the world fell into a terror. Years later, whisperings of a goddess have been heard, but no one knows.
What we do know is that a grind is the perfect word to describe Tree of Savior. Many people love the challenge of a long, arduous grind. It’s the feeling of satisfaction at the end of the road that makes it all worthwhile. There are a lot of skills to be unlocked and leveled. While you do start out at one of four possible classes 9Archer, Cleric, Swordsman, and Wizard), you also eventually unlock a lot of subclasses helping you define your playstyle.

30) Wildstar
Behind the Ratchet and Clank-esque graphics of Wildstar lies an exciting fantasy/sci-fi mmorpg world. The abandoned world of Nexus holds many adventures and treasures for all players. However, with all the advanced technology waiting to be found, two factions formed. It’s your job to join a faction and help take control of the lush world around you.
Wildstar offers a partial combat system to help you in your pve and pvp struggles. There are your typical quests and dungeons when it comes to pve. For pvp, you can basically fight the opposing faction anywhere (open world combat), or que up for small scale arenas, bg’s, and warplots (team vs team). Once you get tired you can always return to your plot of land, aka your home. Your home plot rests in an island in the sky and allows you to modify and decorate as you please. Create crafting stations, mini-games, dungeons, and helpful bonuses to aid in your battle. If you get lonely you can always invite a friend over. Just make sure you put them to work on your plots, because everyone should do their share!
Nexus holds rich rewards and technologies waiting to be claimed by an adventurous soul.
Be as adorable or deadly as you like, because all types can conquer the abandoned world of Nexus.
