Will the second time around prove more successful than the first?

That’s what Gameforge is hoping with Guardians of Ember. You may recall this action-RPG from a couple of years ago, when Runewaker’s efforts launched as a buy-to-play product under Insel Games. That fizzled hard (and was booted off Steam over review manipulation), so Gameforge bought the rights to try again — but this time as a free-to-play title.

Guardians of Ember just went into closed beta for those who applied and were graced with a key. It describes itself as an “MMO/hack-n-slash blend” that offers four races, six classes, multi-classing, player housing, and PvP modes. Get re-acquainted with the game by viewing the trailer below!
