11Drakantos is a free-to-play pixel-art MMORPG set in the fantasy world of Eldras, a world brought to life through cutscenes. It is developed and self-published by Wingeon Game Studios, a Brazilian indie studio based in Curitiba. The game pairs a nostalgic top-down pixel art look with fast-paced, 100% action combat and a roster of 21 playable Heroes, each a swappable class with its own abilities, personality, and story. The studio describes Drakantos as a cooperative online adventure that blends an open world with a dungeon-crawler structure, while a dedicated competitive layer plays like a "Mini MOBA" inside the MMO.22Players share a single world with everyone on their server. They explore, complete quests, gather resources, hunt collectibles, and take on rotating missions from the Adventurer's Guild. The game is available on PC for Windows and Linux, is free-to-play, and does not yet have an announced release date. Two closed beta tests have been held so far, the most recent in May 2026.44Quick Facts66FieldDetailDeveloperWingeon Game Studios (Brazilian indie studio, Curitiba)PublisherWingeon Game Studios (self-published)GenreFree-to-play pixel-art MMORPG with action combatPlatformsPC (Windows) and LinuxRelease dateTo be announced ("Coming soon")Business modelFree-to-playWorldEldrasLatest testClosed Beta 2 (May 22 to 24, 2026)88What Drakantos Is99Drakantos breaks away from the traditional class system of most MMORPGs. Instead of building a single character, you unlock all 21 heroes on one account and swap between them freely, treating each hero as a class with its own kit, lore, and role. Of the 21, 20 are named and one remains unrevealed. Level and gear do not carry between heroes, but account-wide progression such as artifacts, trophies, and cosmetics is shared across your whole roster.1111Movement is fully free in 360 degrees rather than locked to a grid, and combat is entirely action-based with no target lock: a left click is your basic attack and a right click is your special, with hold-to-charge variants. Detailed mechanics live on the Gameplay page.1313Key Features1616FeatureSummaryHeroes21 playable heroes (20 named plus 1 unrevealed), each a swappable class with unique mechanics, dyes, and over 30 emotes per heroCombat and movementFully free 360-degree movement (no tile grid) and 100% action combat with no target systemOpen World and Adventurer's GuildA shared MMORPG open world for exploration plus a dungeon-crawler mission layer across 120 handcrafted mapsPvP ModesA "Mini MOBA" layer: 3v3 Arena (Control, Escort, Assault), open-world Duel, Red Chest, Adventure Invasions, and Hellgates extractionOrbs, Artifacts, and TrophiesDeep build customization: orbs alter skills, artifacts add active and passive effects, and trophies grant passivesBosses and EnemiesOver 150 enemy designs, an elite Erilith-crystal system, and 16 major bossesPets, Mounts, and CollectiblesAround 195 pets (the planned launch roster), many mounts, and the Databook and Bestiary card systemsLifestyle and EconomyFishing with an Aquarium, housing, a player market, crafting, and timed global eventsSocial SystemsPlayer guilds, victory-screen chat and emotes, scoreboard tools, and an MVP bonus1818Setting1919The game takes place in the world of Eldras, told through cutscenes. Its kingdoms and domains include the Human Empire (capital Kasteron), the Dwarven Kingdom (Garmorli), the Elven Kingdom (Ereluna), and a demonic Hell domain. Devlogs also reference the lands of Derid, which the Adventurer's Guild serves and which is likely a continent or region within Eldras, though the exact relationship is not stated. New players each begin with a unique prologue before arriving in the shared starting village of Fairdale. More detail is on the Setting and World and Cities and Locations pages.2121Inspirations2323Wingeon cites classic action-RPG and life-sim titles among its inspirations, alongside a Middle-earth-style fantasy theme featuring dwarves, dragons, and elves. The competitive layer draws on hero shooters and team brawlers for its "Mini MOBA" design.2525Development and Reception2727Drakantos is built by a small Brazilian studio that has shared its progress through regular devlogs. The game passed 100,000 Steam wishlists in late 2023 and reached half a million wishlists by May 2026. Across its testing phases the team has reworked movement and combat, expanded the hero roster, and introduced the competitive PvP layer.
