Another incredible year has come to a close, and what a way to end it! We’re incredibly proud to share that Albion Online has been named Best Indie MMO of 2025 by MMORPG.com, marking the third year in a row the game has received this award.
In announcing the accolade, MMORPG.com highlighted one of the core pillars behind Albion Online’s long-term success: continuous evolution driven by player feedback. As their resident Albion expert, Nick Shively, puts it:
Zitat:
One of the great things about Albion is how the team really listens to the players and tries to incorporate the areas that are lacking into their large quarterly updates. This allows the game to slowly evolve over time instead of waiting on a new expansion every two to three years. Regardless of how you play, eventually one of these updates will affect how you like to play and bring about new rewards.
That philosophy shaped a busy and transformative year for the game. Across multiple major updates, the sandbox continued to grow and adapt. The Realm Divided update delivered sweeping changes to Faction Warfare, while Abyssal Depths and Rogue Frontier focused on helping players find their footing and explore the systems the game has to offer. Albion Online’s third consecutive Best Indie MMO award is a powerful vote of confidence in both the game and the team behind it.
A huge thank you goes to the staff at MMORPG.com for their continued recognition, and to you, our community. Your passion, feedback, and commitment allow Albion Online to keep improving year after year. We remain firm in our promise to continuously evolve, and we can't wait to share our plans for this year with you very soon!
