Echo of Soul is a network RPG game in which the player plays the chosen gods. With the task of saving the world from corruption, he explores new lands and fights the servants of evil. A unique system of character development, based on the absorption of opponents' souls and a multitude of different activities are the main features of the production behind which the creators of Lineage II are standing.
Echo Soul is a free MMORPG maintained in fantasy climates. Focusing on a huge world, a lot of activity, full freedom and a dynamic fight provides plenty of hours of potential fun. Nvius studio is responsible for the production, largely composed of people previously working on Lineage II.
The world to which we move in the game is torn between the forces of good and evil. Centuries ago, as a result of the Great War of Creators, the World Tree, which gave rise to all life, was contaminated. Some deities, seeing how great a catastrophe could lead to it, took all available measures to avoid a tragedy, but unfortunately they did not manage to exterminate the evil. Therefore, mortals turn out to be the last hope - a carefully selected group, called Soulkeepers, is the only thing that can save the world from destruction.
The player, as a member of this elite group, travels through distant lands, fighting all forms of evil and corruption. The monsters, which have spread throughout the world, not only constitute the main obstacle to re-establishing order, but also withstand the so-called Chaos Souls. Our protagonist absorbs them after winning a fight and can activate special skills later - the more souls we gain, the more powerful are their effects. A total of six classes are at the disposal of the players, each of which has its own tree of development.
The world consists of nearly sixty unique maps and instances, in which, apart from fighting, we also perform other tasks. The total number of activities exceeds 1600 different missions, divided into PvE and PvP according to their specificity. Among them we can find tactical 20-person rallies, guild wars or even matches involving 10 to 30 players in modes such as capture the flag.
Echo of Soul is based on the Unreal Engine 3 engine. Thanks to this, developers are able to generate good quality graphics, combined with smooth animations and spectacular sequences, without the unnecessary burden on their computers. The game works on a free-to-play basis - available microtransactions allow you to buy a new costume for the character or temporary bonuses to accelerate progression.
