Over the weekend, a massive exploit plagued Perfect World Entertainment’s Neverwinter beta as players discovered a way to make billions off of the auction house and Astral Diamond Exchange. After initially closing the economy to explore the company’s options, PWE decided to do a seven-hour rollback of the servers that…
Are you singing the open beta blues when it comes to Neverwinter? Nasty bugs or class inconsistencies getting you down? Then cheer up, little soldier, for Cryptic has the cure for what ails you. The studio announced today that it’s preparing a “major” update to address issues across the Neverwinter…
Neverwinter formally launches in just two days, but it appears as though the folks at Cryptic aren’t quite done adding features to the game. The company has just announced that an entirely new profession, alchemy, will go live at the same time as the game’s official launch. This brings the…
The “It’s only in beta” catchphrase is going to become obsolete for Neverwinter come June 20th. At that time, open beta will go quietly into the night as launch takes its place. Did we say quietly? We mean with the loud crashing sounds of Valindra’s army at its heels! Starting…

What does Launch Day part deux have in store for the discerning Neverwinter customer? There’s a new Alchemy profession, the new Caverns of…
It’s been a little over a month since Neverwinter soft-launched as a no-wipe open beta. Perhaps some folks are holding off until the “official” launch to play it, but I wager that most anyone who is interested in this game is already leveling up like mad. I always think that…
Cryptic’s Craig Zinkievich doesn’t think that Neverwinter stands a chance at being the next mega-MMO hit — and he’s completely fine with that. “Frankly, we’re not trying to compete with World of Warcraft. Anyone whose goal is ‘lighting in a bottle’ is not being realistic,” the executive producer said to…
Perfect World and Cryptic Studios didn’t even let the launch-day paint dry (that’s the officially official launch, not the one that let everyone in to play) before announcing Neverwinter’s first free content update. And now that expansion has a launch date of its very own: Fury of the Feywild will…
