Regnum OnlineŽ is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) for the PC where the players are immersed in a 3D virtual world where they can live as Elves, Humans, Dwarves, or Dark Elves. You can be a Warrior, Mage, or Archer, and each class has two subclasses that become available in later levels - Knight, Barbarian, Warlock, Conjurer, Marksman, or Hunter. Players will have exciting adventures, explore wild lands, join a clan, and form an army of players to take on the other kingdoms in massive PvP battles.

The game is still in development but already offers many quests, items, and monsters; not to mention the large number of English, Spanish, German, and Portuguese speaking players you'll meet in-game.
