What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows us to gather valuable player feedback, validate our design choices, and refine the game with real customer data. Having just exited our first beta, we're ready to involve a wider audience in Ilysia's development. Public feedback is critical in ensuring our gameplay and features align with what players enjoy, helping us fine-tune mechanics before full release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We aim to exit Early Access in early 2026. This timeline gives us the opportunity to validate our design, make necessary adjustments, and expand content to the level expected in a full release.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full release of Ilysia will feature a significantly larger world, more dungeons, expanded professions, additional playable races, enhanced social VR features, and refined mechanics to deliver the complete MMORPG experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Our Early Access build is a fully playable vertical slice, not just a demo. It includes full cross platform multiplayer between PC and Meta, four playable races, the first 10 levels of progression, four skill trees, one dungeon, and an explorable world with a variety of quest types. With over five hours of content outside of social play, this version is designed to showcase core features in development while gathering valuable player feedback to refine our design.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, Early Access will be priced at half or less than the full release price, reflecting that it is an in-development product.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community engagement is at the heart of our development. We actively interact with our player base through Discord, host Tavern Talks where developers and players discuss the game, and provide regular updates and patch notes on our website to keep players informed on progress.”

About This Game

Aenor… once a thriving island, lost to ash and ruin.
The fire elementals, led by the enraged Guardian Bal’Ramos, rose without warning, consuming all in their path. The skies darkened, the land split, and despite the efforts of brave heroes, hope burned away with the flames.

But not all was lost. A handful of survivors fled, their hearts heavy with loss yet fueled by fragile determination. Through storm and peril, they sought refuge and found it here, in Lavea—a second chance.

With the kindness of its people and the resilience of their own, the survivors begin anew. But rebuilding comes at a price, for darkness is never truly vanquished. Whispers of ancient power stir beneath the surface, and as new threats rise, so too must new heroes—blade in hand, bow drawn, and spell woven— to stand against the coming storm and shape the fate of these lands.

A New World Awaits

The story continues in Ilysia, a VR MMORPG set in the newly discovered land of Lavea. Picking up after the fall of Aenor, the survivors now strive to reestablish themselves—but new dangers rise to challenge them.

Venture forth alone or with allies as you embark on quests, grow in level,  hone your skills, learn new trades, and tackle dangerous challenges as you gain power in an ever-evolving online world. Whether you seek glory in combat, riches through crafting, or the thrill of exploration, your journey is yours to forge.
