Una lista bastante completita de los proximos MMORPGs que podrían estar este E3 (sin incluir expansiones) para saber a que juegos masivos prestar atención este E3, además de un análisis del futuro de este género.
Traducción (no literal al 100%) del análisis del principio:
Podemos garantizar que veremos una gran cantidad de MMOs en el E3, por ello es por lo que queremos traeros esta revisión de cada MMO que sabemos se encuentra en desarrollo - excluyendo expansiones de juegos existentes. Un pequeño sumario de las tendencias que podemos deducir de esta lista:
* Este y oeste se reencuentran. Diez de cada 35 juegos en la lista son juegos koreanos que pretenden triunfar en América y Europa, con varias compañías apostando por el éxito de estas traducciones.
* Elfos y Orcos. Apesar del gran número de MMOs de temática fantástica, hay varios en desarrollo carentes de esta temática, incluso vemos desde juegos de ciencia ficción a juegos de piratas.
* Microtransacciones. Pagar por dinero, no por el juego -- esta creciente estrategia común permite a los jugadores intentar jugar de forma gratuita. Aquellos que juegan mucho acaban gastando más dinero del que pagarían por una suscripción mensual de todo-lo-que-puedas-jugar.
* MMOs fortuitos. Tres de los títulos listados abajo intentan atraer a los jugadores fortuitos, mediante una apariencia "infantil" y basados en Flash. La mayoría de los títulos no son persistentes, aunque juegos como Runescape lo han hecho bien dentro de la ofertas de juegos de explorador hasta ahora.
* Nuevas desarrolladoras. Quince de los estudios listados abajo están trabajando en su primer MMO, o en su primer juego. Esto podría significar una mayor innovación o más problemas -- Los juegos masivos son un negocio arriesgado.A un así, hay algunos retos que muchas d elas compañías listadas abajos tendrán que superar para que sus títulos triunfen:
* Llenar el hueco. Muchos de los juegos en desarrollo parecen iguales a simple vista, y los desarrolladores tendrán que dar a sus productos un toque único y particular.
* El Anti-WoW. Una proporción creciente de jugadores no juegan a otra cosa que WoW. Los desarrolladores deben encarar el reto de atraerlos a la vez que deben competir con la expansión World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, que será lanzada a finales de este año. Lo mismo se puede aplicar a otros MMOs -- ¿querrán los jugadores deshacerse de sus poderosos personajes para empezar de cero en un mundo desconocido?
* Falta de pagos necesarios. Ofrecer un juego gratuito con micropagos está muy bien, pero un cierto número de micropagos es necesario para que este sistema funcione -- conseguir el balance correcto puede ser un problema.La lista en cuestión (sin traducir):

* Release Date: 2007
All Points Bulletin (AP
* Developer: Real Time Worlds
* Platform: PC, Xbox 360

Bang! Howdy

* About the Game: Free to download and play, Bang! Howdy is a cowboy MMO that centres around tactical strategy. It will presumably be similar to Puzzle Pirates in that it's a themed Java-based game, easily accessible to casual players, though the strategy focus is a new angle.
* Release Date: TBA; beta signup open.

* Developer: Bioware

The game looks to be heavily PvP oriented, with no safe zones.
* Release Date: 2006
Dark World Online
* Developer: Tulga Games
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: Horror MMOs are rare, though horror games are less so. Tulga Games is the developer of MMO Horizons: Empire of Istaria, a fairly low-key fantasy MMO.
* About the Game: Dark World Online is a MMO with a modern horror setting; players will be able to choose between vampire, werewolves and human races. The game features PvP and PvE gameplay, but little more is known at this early stage.
* Release Date: TBA
Untitled DC Comics MMO
* Developer: Sony Online Entertainment
* Platform: PC, PS3, Xbox 360 (speculative)
* MMO History: SOE is certainly one of the big names behind MMOs at the moment, though this comics-based MMO will be encroaching on fellow giant NCsoft's territory. With both DC Comics and Marvel entering the superhero space, things are certainly looking crowded.
* About the Game: DC Comics' Jim Lee was recently announced as creative lead, and the game will be "as close to the DC Comics source material" as possible. Holy multiple worlds, Batman!
* Release Date: 2008
Dofus Arena
* Developer: Ankama

* Release Date: Currently in beta, expected to go gold soon.
Dungeon Runners
* Developer: NCsoft
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: A new title from an established MMO publisher known for its non-traditional themes, Dungeon Runners is a return to the fantasy genre. NCsoft's MMO pedigree includes City of Heroes, Guild Wars and Auto Assault.
* About the Game: Based on the idea of conquering multiple dungeons, Dungeon Runners involves adventuring in instances alone or with other players. As with Guild Wars, it effectively falls into the "online multiplayer RPG" category rather than the true MMO space, though its visuals are more reminiscent of World of Warcraft. We'll learn more at E3.
* Release Date: Q3 2006
Endless Saga
* Developer: Webzen
* Platform: PS3, PC
* MMO History: Webzen, a Korean company, is developing another console MMO, Huxley, as well as the popular MU Online and Soul of the Ultimate Nation.

* Release Date: 2007
Exanimus
* Developer: TMSGames
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: Horror-based MMOs aren't a lively genre, but browser-based zombiefest Urban Dead has proved popular. This appears to be TMSGames' first MMO endeavour, though the studio is dedicated to massively multiplayer development.

Genetic mutation and manipulation is central to the game's theme, and it involves a zoneless single world. Fallen Earth intends to be a "cross-media experience" that only begins in MMO form.
* Release Date: TBA; beta signup available soon.
Fury
* Developer: Auran
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: Australian developer Auran is behind games like Trainz, but this appears to be their first MMO. The transition from railroad simulation to fantasy multiplayer gaming may be a tricky road.
* About the Game: Fury claims to combine both RPG and FPS elements to create a fast-paced combative MMO, with "no ganking, no grinding, no waiting, no wimps". According to its website, the game is launching at E3.

* Platform: PC
* MMO History: Originally announced for development in 1999, Hero's Journey has had a long road to production. Developer Simutronics has a long history in multiplayer games, having developed several MUD titles, though the 3D MMORPG world seems fairly new to the company.

* Release Date: 2006
Huxley
* Developer: H-Studiot
* Platform: Xbox 360, PC
* MMO History: Huxley joins Korean publisher Webzen's MMO family. With two other MMOs lined up, Webzen will presumably be launching a three-way attack on the Western market.
* About the Game: Breaking out of the RPG style of many MMOs, Huxley is a massively-multiplayer first-person shooter, or MMOFPS. The game is based on the Unreal 3 engine and set in a post-apocalyptic world, where two factions of humans battle for survival. Vehicles and a selection of weaponry feature in the game.

The Lord of the Rings Online

* About the Game: Set in Middle-earth shortly after Frodo and his companions leave the Shire, The Lord of the Rings Online allows players to interact with Tolkein's characters in a story-driven PvE environment. It involves standard MMO features such as a class system and four playable races: dwarves, elves, hobbits and humans. No orcs, unfortunately.
* Release Date: TBA
Untitled Marvel MMO
* Developer: Sigil Games
* Platform: PC, Xbox 360
* MMO History: Cryptic showed the world it was possible to make a superhero MMO with City of Heroes, though it landed them with a hefty lawsuit from Marvel. Now the comics giant is doing things their own way. Sigil has many Sony veterans onboard who'll be throwing their MMO weight behind this.
* About the Game: Microsoft's first console MMO will most probably be superhero-themed, and will allow players from console and PC versions to interact. Little more is known; we hope to hear more at E3.
* Release Date: 2008
Naughty America: The Game
* Developer: Naughty America
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: While social-themed online worlds and sex-themed online games have been around for a while, this is Naughty America's first foray into either.
* About the Game: A cross between online dating and an MMO, Naughty America: The Game is primarily a social space with added sex. Cartoon sex, that is.
* Release Date: Summer 2006
Phantasy Star Universe
* Developer: Sega
* Platform: PS2, PC, Xbox 360
* MMO History: After the popular Phantasy Star Online, spanning the Dreamcast, Gamecube, PC and Xbox platforms, Sega is no stranger to console conversions. Originally scheduled for a March '06 release, this title has been delayed.

Pirates of the Caribbean Online
* Developer: Disney
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: After developing kiddy MMO Toontown Online, Disney has turned its attention to one of its popular movie franchises to make a game that has broad appeal. However, pirate fans may have to choose between this and competitor Pirates of the Burning Sea.
* About the Game: Little is known about Pirates of the Caribbean Online; players will be able to interact with the movie characters Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann, on the route to creating a pirate and setting sail on the seas. Expect evil undead pirates and a large amount of movie crossover. More will be revealed at E3.

* Release Date: 2006
Roma Victor
* Developer: Red Bedlam Ltd
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: This is Red Bedlam's first MMO and one of the first to focus on an authentic historical setting. The game was recently in the press for its in-game punishment of virtual crucifixion.
* About the Game: Roma Victor aims to reproduce a historically accurate Roman world, circa 180AD, though players won't have to speak Latin (unfortunately). It involves a revenue model based around in-game currency rather than a monthly fee.
* Release Date: July 2006
Soccer Fury
* Developer:
* Platform: PC
* MMO History: Another of NCsoft's veritable harem of games, this was only announced towards the end of April 2006. Adding the concept of MMO to a sports title is an interesting experiment, but NCsoft is one of the few companies with the weight to try it.
* About the Game: The only sports MMO in this line-up, Soccer Fury combines "arcade-style" football with an online multiplayer element. With teams, leagues and tournaments, the term "MMO" is perhaps stretching it a little, but the game seems aimed at the MMO space.
* Release Date: TBA
Soul of the Ultimate Nation
* Developer: Webzen

Square Enix's Untitled MMORPG

Tabula Rasa
* Developer: Destination Games

Players will have access to futuristic weapons and mystical powers, working together to stop the oncoming enemy. The game is designed to appeal to FPS, RPG and MMO fans, and has built-in voice chat.

Trials of Ascension
* Developer: Shadowpool Studios
* Platform: PC
