Perfect World Entertainment and Cryptic Studios have announced today that their free-to-play MMO Neverwinter will be officially launching on June 20th of this year. This launch will also mark the addition of the Gauntlgrym content for level 60 vets and a public test shard named NeverwinterPreview. If that’s not enough…
So, like, Neverwinter launched and stuff. And today it’s launching again. Cryptic and Perfect World are actually calling it a launch this time, though, so there’s that. 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.

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…

The first major content addition to Neverwinter isn’t just bringing new dungeons, it’s bringing a new way to experience the game’s content. The new Campaign system will see its debut in the region of Sharandar. This isn’t just another name for a series of quests, but rather a new way…
Hold on tight to your wallets, kids, because Cryptic’s knocking on your door with a couple of new companion offerings for Neverwinter. The studio is releasing the Ghost and Lillend companions, although snagging one is going to require coughing up some cash (or playing the ZEN market smartly). The Ghost…
One of the great things about test servers is a chance to see what’s coming up in your favorite games — that, and hopefully squashing any bugs before going live, of course! And the Preview Shard for Neverwinter got quite a patch with plenty of goodies for players to experience.…
Raptr, a gaming community that touts it rewards people for playing, is turning its rewarding eye toward Neverwinter players. The site is hosting a Q&A session with Lead Designer Zeke Sparkes, Foundry Producer Rob Overmeyer, and Community Manager Som Pourfarzaneh tomorrow, July 26th, from 1:00 to 9:00 p.m. EDT. Fans…
