The game is all about forging a strong crew, racing against other crews, and basically being the baddest group of drivers on the block.<\/p>\n<p>The game does feature a single-player mode, but it is primarily focused on racing other players.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WibVKyF78RE?rel=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">EverQuest Next<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Release Date &#8211; 2014<\/li>\n<li>Platforms \u2013 PC, PS4<\/li>\n<li>Developers \u2013 Sony Online Entertainment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One of the better MMOs in existence is getting a complete makeover. EverQuest Next is not a prequel or sequel, but rather a separate game set in an alternative dimension. The game is built using the Forelight Engine &#8211; the same engine that PlanetSide 2 and H1Z1 are based on.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cdgPuEl5Nuk?rel=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Game of Thrones: Seven Kingdoms<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Release Date \u2013 2015<\/li>\n<li>Platforms \u2013 TBA<\/li>\n<li>Developers \u2013 Bigpoint<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Game of Thrones MMO is the game based on the popular TV series, which I am sure you all know and watch.
