open-world regions at your leisure. While MMOs mostly have you take part in group-oriented tasks, you can tackle much of your adventures on your own, which includes taking on quests, exploring dungeons, and crafting goods. But if partner up with others, you can take part in large-scale conflicts with up to 100 players fighting on a battlefield or engaging in siege-combat. By forming companies with other players, you can build strongholds in different regions of Aeternum.</p><div data-embed-type="pinbox" data-ref-id="4390"> <p class="associated-header"><i><svg width="80" height="80" viewbox="0 0 80 80" aria-hidden="true" class="symbol symbol-news"><path d="M72,24V64h0a8,8,0,0,1-8,8H16a8,8,0,0,1-8-8V8H56V60a4,4,0,0,0,4,4h0a4,4,0,0,0,4-4V0H0V64H0A16,16,0,0,0,16,80H64A16,16,0,0,0,80,64V24Z"/><rect x="16" y="16" width="31.99" height="8"/><rect x="16" y="32" width="31.99" height="8"/><rect x="16" y="48" width="31.99" height="8"/></svg></i> The Game Awards 2019 News</p> <ul> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/all-winners-from-the-game-awards-2019/1100-6472169/">The Game Awards Winners Revealed Here</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-series-x-exclusive-details-say-hello-to-micro/1100-6472190/">Goodbye, Project Scarlett, Hello Xbox Series X - Exclusive First Look And Interview</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/game-awards-2019-announcements-xbox-series-x-and-m/1100-6471978/">Game Awards 2019 News: Next-Gen Xbox Series X, Hellblade 2, And More</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/apex-legends-holo-day-bash-winter-event-is-live-ad/1100-6472186/">Apex Legends Is Getting A Mirage-Themed, Christmas Event Called Holo-Day Bash</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-series-x-specs-design-and-everything-else-we-/1100-6472199/">Xbox Series X: Everything We Just Learned About Microsoft's Next-Gen Console</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/final-fantasy-7-remakes-latest-trailer-focuses-on-/1100-6472185/">Final Fantasy 7 Remake's Game Awards Trailer Focuses On Cloud's Personality</a></li> </ul></div><div data-embed-type="video" data-ref-id="2300-6451818" data-src="/videos/new-world-cinematic-reveal-trailer/2300-6451818/" data-width="854" data-height="480"><iframe src="/videos/embed/6451818/" width="100%" height="100%" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe></div><p>In a press release, vice president of Amazon Games stated the following: “We want our players to feel the depth—and the danger—of New World from the moment they step onto the shores of Aeternum in May 2020.

open-world regions at your leisure. While MMOs mostly have you take part in group-oriented tasks, you can tackle much of your adventures on your own, which includes taking on quests, exploring dungeons, and crafting goods. But if partner up with others, you can take part in large-scale conflicts with up to 100 players fighting on a battlefield or engaging in siege-combat. By forming companies with other players, you can build strongholds in different regions of Aeternum.</p><div data-embed-type="pinbox" data-ref-id="4390"> <p class="associated-header"><i><svg width="80" height="80" viewbox="0 0 80 80" aria-hidden="true" class="symbol symbol-news"><path d="M72,24V64h0a8,8,0,0,1-8,8H16a8,8,0,0,1-8-8V8H56V60a4,4,0,0,0,4,4h0a4,4,0,0,0,4-4V0H0V64H0A16,16,0,0,0,16,80H64A16,16,0,0,0,80,64V24Z"/><rect x="16" y="16" width="31.99" height="8"/><rect x="16" y="32" width="31.99" height="8"/><rect x="16" y="48" width="31.99" height="8"/></svg></i> The Game Awards 2019 News</p> <ul> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/all-winners-from-the-game-awards-2019/1100-6472169/">The Game Awards Winners Revealed Here</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-series-x-exclusive-details-say-hello-to-micro/1100-6472190/">Goodbye, Project Scarlett, Hello Xbox Series X - Exclusive First Look And Interview</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/game-awards-2019-announcements-xbox-series-x-and-m/1100-6471978/">Game Awards 2019 News: Next-Gen Xbox Series X, Hellblade 2, And More</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/apex-legends-holo-day-bash-winter-event-is-live-ad/1100-6472186/">Apex Legends Is Getting A Mirage-Themed, Christmas Event Called Holo-Day Bash</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-series-x-specs-design-and-everything-else-we-/1100-6472199/">Xbox Series X: Everything We Just Learned About Microsoft's Next-Gen Console</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/final-fantasy-7-remakes-latest-trailer-focuses-on-/1100-6472185/">Final Fantasy 7 Remake's Game Awards Trailer Focuses On Cloud's Personality</a></li> </ul></div><div data-embed-type="video" data-ref-id="2300-6451818" data-src="/videos/new-world-cinematic-reveal-trailer/2300-6451818/" data-width="854" data-height="480"><iframe src="/videos/embed/6451818/" width="100%" height="100%" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe></div><p>In a press release, vice president of Amazon Games stated the following: “We want our players to feel the depth—and the danger—of New World from the moment they step onto the shores of Aeternum in May 2020.
