What Are The Top MMOs And Expansions You Can Expect In 2025? - Top 3

In the past 2024, MMORPGs have been gaining more and more market share, whether it is a series of new releases or expansions for fan-favorites such as Final Fantasy XIV and World of Warcraft, which have given players a very exciting exploration experience.

In the current 2025, there will be several highly anticipated MMOs that introduce strange new worlds, long-awaited sequels and linear expansions, covering a variety of genres from epic sci-fi to classic fantasy to survival horror.

While everyone will have their own favorite MMO, this guide will introduce you to the top three most anticipated MMOs in 2025, so you can try them according to your needs.

1. World Of Warcraft: Midnight

World of Warcraft celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2024 and released The War Within in August to celebrate the achievement. In addition, WoW also launched a new epic trilogy in 2024. The first expansion is called The Worldsoul Saga, which introduces many new game mechanisms, such as Delves and Warband, and brings a lot of interesting game experience to players.

Given the success of the first expansion, players are looking forward to what other surprises Blizzard will bring in the second expansion. Fortunately, Blizzard said that the release intervals of these expansions will not be too long, unlike before.

At this stage, through some leaked information, it is known that the second expansion, World Of Warcraft: Midnight, may be planned to land on MacOS and PC in late summer 2025, which may bring housing and the new farming methods for WOW Gold, which is a feature that Warcraft players have been looking forward to for many years.

2. Dune: Awakening

Dune, with its very powerful visual effects and huge open world, can be said to be the most anticipated game by many MMOs players, and Dune: Awakening, adapted from Frank Herbert’s series of novels, is even more so. However, according to current information, it is expected to land on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S in 2025.

In this video game adaptation, you will explore a desert called the world of Arrakis, which is also the heart of Galaxy’s economic system. It cleverly combines survival and MMO elements, in which you can explore and team up for your own survival and the survival of others.

The trailer of Dune: Awakening shows very classic Dune staples, such as ornithopters, Fremen Stillsuits and gargantuan sandworms, which may give players a different exploration experience. Although we have very little information about this game at this stage, we can draw some inspiration from Conan Exiles, released by the same developer.

3. Chrono Odyssey

Chrono Odyssey doesn’t stand out among other big MMOs, but this fantasy MMORPG has a very mature theme and great visuals that could make your journey of exploration in 2025 even more interesting. It was originally scheduled to be released in 2022, but was completely reworked at the last minute to allow players to enjoy the game in both Engine 5 and Unreal Engine 4.

If you are a player who often likes to imagine things, then you will definitely be attracted by the background story and gameplay of Chrono Odyssey: because of the timeline contradictions caused by time travel, the entire game world is flooded with chaos and dangerous voids, and you will use a device called Chronotector to manipulate the space and time around you to help repair the damage while repelling evil entities.

Doesn’t this sound very interesting? Are you looking forward to the official release of Chrono Odyssey? However, there is no specific information on its release date at this stage. It is expected to be launched on the next generation of game consoles and PC in 2025.

The above is three very exciting MMOs in 2025. Of course, there will be more new games and expansions worth trying this year, such as ArcheAge Chronicles and Corepunk. I wish you a more interesting MMO exploration experience in the new year!
