Enter the colorful, anime inspired world of side scrolling action combat in KOG Games free-to-play manga themed MMORPG Elsword. Take on the role of one of many different heroes (new heroes or new versions of existing heroes are added fairly frequently) and swing or cast your way through dungeons and big boss fights alone or with groups of friends. PvP comes in multiple forms staring at 1v1 and extending to group based brawls where the fast based combo action flashes all over your screen. While Elsword doesn’t feature much in the way of character creation since you are choosing from a list of predefined heroes, you are able to customize your character a bit on the looks front and after leveling a bit (to level 15) you can specialize the skill set your character uses into one of multiple skill trees. Some characters are even combinations of more than one character with the player choosing which character to control in a given situation. Each character has its own unique backstory, motivations, and storyline so playing through multiple characters is certainly something many players do each time a new character is introduced. Elsword’s cash shop specializes in costumes for all heroes, accessories, consumable items for in game boosts, pets, mounts, and various items that can be used to add new inventory slots and other “quality of life” improvements.
