Lineage 2
Lineage 2 is a PvP-centric, P2P 3D fantasy MMORPG which is best known for being the mold that many free-to-play titles use as a design template. With a history now spanning close to a decade, Lineage 2 sits atop the online gaming throne as one of the very first high-quality, 3D ‘grind-style’ MMORPGs ever released. Lineage 2 has stood the test of time with more than 500,000 active players enjoying its many updates and expansions today. Come experience an epic fantasy MMO that many have copied, but never duplicated, and see what it takes for a game to stay running for over a decade!
Lineage 2 Key Features
