Land of Chaos Online

Land of Chaos Online (LOCO) was JoyMax's free-to-play tactical online action RPG, blending MMORPG-style hero customization with third-person shooting and MOBA-like strategic point capture across instanced maps and game modes. Matches are self-contained team battles joined through a lobby rather than a persistent shared world, so it's catalogued here as a related but distinct genre; the original Western service has shut down, though a standalone Early Access sequel exists separately under a different developer.

Not a persistent MMO

  • Land of Chaos Online is a lobby-based, session-based team-battle game — not a persistent shared world.
  • It's catalogued here as "Tactical online action RPG" — a related but distinct genre from the persistent-world MMOs this site otherwise covers.
  • It's included in this directory because it's commonly searched for by people trying to figure out whether it counts as an MMO — this page exists to give you a straight answer.

Real MMOs to check out

  • This entry is intentionally excluded from MMOFinder's platform, genre, and catalog-wide statistics, since it isn't a persistent-world MMO.
  • The original game's Western service has already shut down; a differently-developed sequel (LOCO II: Revolution) is in Early Access separately.
  • If you came here specifically to check whether this game is an MMO: it isn't, by the definition this site uses (a persistent, shared, many-player online world) — but it may still be worth knowing about on its own terms.
