Former MMO and MOBA devs have unveiled a brand new MMO right this moment: It’s known as Tomo: Infinite Blue, and it’s launching on Steam subsequent 12 months. It’s coming to us from studio Onibi, which boasts devs from World of Warcraft, Fortnite, and League of Legends. The press launch calls the sport a “voxel open-world, anime-style RPG set in a boundless ocean realm inhabited by mysterious creatures often called the Tomo,” however on Steam it’s designated as an MMO, with co-op and PvP play on high.
“When worlds finish, fragments of their civilizations change into islands adrift within the Infinite Blue. As gamers embark on a journey to uncover the story of every procedurally generated island, they uncover vibrant villages crammed with characters and Tomo residing their lives, each island and village a microcosm of a novel tradition. Whether or not gamers need to battle alongside Tomo companions, construct intricate automobiles and contraptions out of blocks, or reside a comfortable life with their associates, the world of the Infinite Blue is theirs to find.”
The pitch focuses on the critters (i.e., the Tomo) and their completely not-Pokemon elemental powers, the proc-gen world constructing, voxel physics, “terrain-based reside fight,” and a complete slew of lifeskilling, cozy sandbox content material. Farming, crafting, cooking, and automobile development are all talked about.
And as for the multiplayer? Properly, it will possibly scale as much as an MMO, however it will possibly scale down, too. “The sport helps offline single-player gameplay, native community multiplayer and distant server play,” the devs say. “There’s no restrict on the variety of gamers – it’s as many because the participant’s machine or server can assist.”
Lastly, the Steam web page mentions modding: “We’ve saved all of it open, so go forward and break the sport. In case your dream is to exchange all Tomo creatures with good-looking pigeons taking part in unlawful poker arms, then so be it. The world is your oyster!”
Properly, then, perhaps all the parents unhappy about Blue Protocol have one thing new to look ahead to. See you in 2026 for the Tomo FOMO.
