Lux

Lux was a hand-drawn survival MMORPG announced by developer Chimera (working under the studio name Ignis) and funded through Kickstarter, set in the dynamically-generated open world of Noch. Pre-release material described real-time open PvP combat, base building, and looting across biomes made more dangerous during Nightfall, when monsters grow stronger. No evidence was found of an actual public release beyond the crowdfunding campaign, so it is treated here under MMOFinder's never-released convention.

Before you play

Things to consider

  • Cancelled; a Kickstarter-funded survival MMORPG with no evidence of an actual public release found beyond its crowdfunding campaign
  • Sourced from MMORPG.com official listing and the game's Kickstarter campaign page; treat details as a research summary rather than a live, first-hand playtest.
  • Business models, features and community size for older or lesser-known titles can drift quickly — verify current status before investing real money or time.
