Browser MMORTS (never released)

Dragon Crusade

Dragon Crusade was a never-released, free-to-play browser MMORTS from Aeria Games, letting players choose from six races (including Dark Elves, Dwarves, and the necromantic Azraen) to build unique buildings, troops, and customizable heroes in real-time territory conquest. The game entered closed beta in May 2012, but OnRPG's own listing confirms it was "cancelled or shut down and is no longer available for play" without ever reaching a public release.

Why you might like it

  • A browser MMORTS project that reached closed beta testing before its cancellation
  • Its six-race territory-conquest premise with customizable heroes was a distinctive concept even among cancelled browser games
  • Being preserved in this catalog keeps a record of the project even though it never reached a public release
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Cancelled; entered closed beta in May 2012 but never reached a public release
  • Sourced from MMORPG.com, MMOHuts, and OnRPG; treat details as a research summary rather than a live, first-hand playtest.
  • The game never launched, so there is nothing to play — this entry exists purely as a historical record.
