• A team of volunteers is fighting to preserve "mini-MMO" Eldegarde after its sudden removal from Steam - 5 March 2026

  Fantasy "mini-MMO" Eldegarde has been pulled from sale on Steam and will be shut down indefinitely at the end of March, just two months after its 1.0 launch. Starting its life as a PvPvE fusion of Arc Raiders' extraction gameplay and World of Warcraft's class design, it gradually evolved to offer more substantial PvE experiences in response to player feedback. Unfortunately, developer Notorious Studios, founded by former Blizzard veterans, says the game's full release "didn't gain enough traction to sustain the studio financially long term," and has made the decision to bring it to an early end.

• Sunsetting Eldegarde (For now...) - 4 March 2026

  Dear Players,After a year on Steam through Early Access and into its recent 1.0 release, I’m saddened to share that we have decided to sunset Eldegarde, taking the game offline indefinitely. While our team at Notorious is incredibly proud of the quality, experience, and passionate community we built with Eldegarde, it unfortunately didn’t gain enough traction to sustain the studio financially long term. The game will no longer be for sale on Steam, but it will remain online and playable until March 31st. Players who purchased the game in the past two weeks are eligable for a full refund, but you will be unable to continue playing the game.Eldegarde was an incredibly ambitious game for a new, small startup studio. It featured a unique combat system that blended Action RPG combat with MMO-like classes and spells, a session-based extraction mode that offered both PvPvE and PvE experiences,…

• Eldegarde (PC) Review - 22 January 2026

  I was a bit skeptical when diving into Eldegarde because of how it was sold to me—being described as World of Warcraft meets ARC Raiders . It was a questionable proposal since I scarcely have time for World of Warcraft these days, and scarcely have interest in ARC Raiders. I kid, of course, I know quite a lot of people enjoy ARC Raiders , but personally, I’m not a huge fan of games where the player has to make the majority of the fun. I had hoped that Eldegarde’s conceit of an MMORPG-styled Extraction Game would bridge the gap and pull me towards it, but unfortunately, it did not—falling prey to my aforementioned issue. It has some interesting ideas, but not enough gameplay to sustain a whole game—or at least my attention for a long time. As far as I could tell, there is not much of a traditional story in Eldegarde , at least not in the form of a straightforward narrative, which makes s…

• Feeling like World of Warcraft with more tension and higher stakes, this fantasy extraction "mini MMO" just hit 1.0 - 21 January 2026

  We've never really seen an actual World of Warcraft killer. We've seen rival MMOs come and go, with the likes of Final Fantasy 14, Old School Runescape, and Guild Wars 2 pushing their way to the front of the chasing pack, but never quite managing to topple Blizzard's age-old goliath. But, in 2025 alone we saw various new WoW-inspired alternatives appear. Fellowship is perhaps the most prominent, followed by Eldegarde , previously known as Legacy: Steel and Sorcery. Notorious Studios' extraction-based MMO had a lot of promise, but struggled to stick the early access landing. But that was over a year ago, and with a snazzy new name and a lot of fine-tuning, Eldegarde has officially launched in 1.0. Read the rest of the story...

• Multiplayer action RPG from ex Blizzard devs confirms 1.0 launch date, and it's got a much-needed name change - 20 December 2025

  I try not to judge a book by its cover, but the name of a game can quickly set your expectations before you've even laid eyes on it. So I'm personally glad to hear that Notorious Studios, the developer founded by former WoW, Diablo, and Overwatch devs, is no longer calling its PvPvE extraction RPG Legacy: Steel and Sorcery , which manages to be rather a mouthful but not really stick in the brain. As it nears a year in early access with a largely positive reception, Notorious confirms that it's ready for the 1.0 launch in January, complete with a full PvE mode and a brand-new name: Eldegarde .
