Dark and Light, a multiplayer sandbox survival RPG, is about to hit Steam Early Access on July 20, 2017; getting into the game early will set you back $29.99. This title seems to be a reboot of a defunct MMORPG by the same name that shuttered after NPCube, the game's original developers, had found themselves in some legal trouble back in 2007. I can't find what exactly happened after NPCube lost in court, but right now the game is being worked on by a different team, Snail Games, so I guess we can put two and two together.
The game, in its current iteration, advertises putting the players into an immersive fantasy world filled with magic, monsters, and mystery, where they will be challenged to survive and thrive through a combination of crafting, exploration, and powerful magic. If that seems like something right up your alley, the official website offers an assortment of development updates that cover a variety of topics, such as the game's bestiary, world, and magic system.
