New World hasn t had the smoothest development journey.
It was announced all the way back in 2016 alongside two other titles as the first wave of games developed by Amazon Games, the video game development division of online megastore, Amazon. Since then, the two other titles were canceled and only New World remains. After numerous delays, the hotly anticipated MMORPG is finally making it to a PC near you.
With a focus on PvP combat, New World hopes to stand out among its contemporaries, but its initial showing this past summer left a lot to be desired. Rather than be discouraged by the less than ideal feedback, Amazon Games decided that it needed the extra time to implement player feedback, and add additional polish to what they already had.
