Albion Online

A role-playing world shaped by its players

Albion Online is a multiplayer role-playing game where you explore a shared world, gather materials, craft equipment and choose whether to focus on combat, trade or making a home. It suits players who enjoy setting their own goals and sharing a world with other adventurers, rather than following only a fixed quest line.

Gear sets your playstyle

There are no fixed character classes: the weapons and armour you equip determine your abilities. Change your gear to try a different combat role, then develop your skills through use and progression. You can face enemies in the open world, explore dungeons, or take on other players in battles ranging from one-on-one fights to team matches.

Gather, craft and trade

Resources gathered by players become equipment and other goods in a player-driven economy. Craft items, trade at local marketplaces, or spend time gathering and fishing. If you would rather put down roots, you can build up a homestead and grow crops or raise animals. Joining a guild opens another path, with territory contests and group activities to pursue together.

Choose your level of risk

The world offers both PvE activities and PvP, including areas where losing a fight can mean losing your equipment. You can seek out those higher-risk encounters or stick to safer zones while exploring and gathering. Albion Online also supports play across desktop and mobile using one account, so it may appeal to players who want to continue their progress across devices.

Published by Sandbox Interactive GmbH, the game has a 4.5-star rating from about 374,000 reviews and more than 10 million installs. Those figures suggest a large, established player base for an online RPG built around both cooperation and competition.
