AION - a new generation MMORPG that brings together the best from its predecessors and possesses the most advanced graphics engine of existing online games.

This allows for incredibly spectacular large-scale PvP, while minimizing lags. The aerial combat system breaks the conventional perception of two-dimensional fighting.

The improved crafting system will leave crafting enthusiasts delighted. Balanced professions eliminate the notion of a "gimp" at high levels. Each profession has its own delights for specific territories. For the first time, lucky and skilled players in PvP can reach unprecedented heights simply by battling with the enemy race, soaring higher in the Abyss's ranking table. The variability of appearance knows no analogs. You can create a truly unique character or your favorite movie star. The game is rapidly gaining millions of subscribers and will greatly please online game fans.
