Albion Online is a cross-platform sandbox MMORPG set in an open medieval fantasy world. It features a unique 'classless' system where character abilities are determined by equipped gear. The game's economy is entirely player-driven, with almost every item crafted by players from gathered resources. Players can explore five distinct biomes, join guilds to conquer territories, engage in small-to-large scale PvP battles, and build their own private islands. It offers a true cross-platform experience, allowing players to use the same account on PC and mobile.

Our Expert Score

89/100

Albion Online is one of the most ambitious MMOs on mobile, primarily because it refuses to compromise on depth. The 'you are what you wear' classless system is a breath of fresh air; being able to switch from a plate-clad tank to a cloth-wearing mage just by changing equipment allows for incredible tactical flexibility. The player-driven economy is the real heart of the game—knowing that the sword you're swinging was actually crafted by another player adds a level of immersion that most theme-park MMOs lack.

The full-loot PvP in 'Black Zones' is genuinely heart-pounding and provides a level of risk-reward that is rare in the mobile space. While the controls have been well-adapted for touch, the game still feels like a 'true' PC experience. It requires a significant time investment to see the end-game content, but for those looking for a hardcore, sandbox medieval fantasy world, Albion is peerless.

I have been looking for this game

Sat Nov 11 2023 NotMi<3

I found Albion online off of adds, and somehow ended up downloading it. But it’s the type of game I have been looking for for awhile now. I only recently started playing, but it has the right skill level, where things aren’t too easy right off the bat and you can’t kill anything with one hit (which I’m assuming will change with upgrades), but it’s not necessarily too difficult either, and I haven’t needed to worry about dying, since there isn’t many penalty’s unless your in certain areas. I like that the game doesn’t have any sort of class system, so I don’t need to worry about picking a good class, and if I get bored I can always change my mind later. Because there isn’t any main storyline, I don’t need to worry about blocked off areas or finishing a quest that I find boring and slow. I admit that the market system was a bit confusing at first, but then I realized that the market is just massive, so you need to know what type of thing you are looking for before you search (at least with the public market, shops are easy to navigate.) I highly suggest downloading Albion online if you want a non-restricted rpg experience, where you don’t need to fight if you don’t want to, can work towards any goal with as much content as adventuring has, or are like me, and like the small details like walking slower if you carry too much (which can be helped with fairly easily attainable mounts).

Immersive and captivating - highly recommend

Albion Online is everything you could want from an MMO and more. They have a huge community and they’re been around for 6+ years, so the game is well developed and there’s so much to do. The medieval world building, charming graphics, beautiful music, excellent city and map design — it’s all perfect! Whether you focus on the aesthetics, the strategic combat, or the complex player market, the story and theme is there to complement it. Playing for the first time truly feels like a journey into a new land — and you really can forge your own path. After the well integrated tutorial, you’re free to do whatever fits your play style. You’ll have a great time playing whether you’re a casual player or a 1000-hour grinder, a single player explorer or part of a huge group. A lot of thought and careful design has been put into the whole game and I really compliment Sandbox interactive for making sure external purchases don’t ruin the game. Every bit of game content is accessible without paying a cent. You could use real money to buy the best equipment in the game and lose it immediately in a dangerous zone to a mediocre player that has skill and some experience. I hate pay to win games and trust me, I would call it out if paying could ruin the experience for others whatsoever. The game is pay to progress, not pay to win. I’ve never spent a penny on the game (sorry!) and I’ve had a wonderful time. 10/10, cannot recommend more to someone looking to start their next adventure. Play on PC, though, if you can.

To give a plot line here- I started the game with really no expectations other than disappointment at the 5 hour mark- landed in, got a guild, and the guild mates started taking me around to all of the content that was enjoyable and group focused- even giving me a million silver (multiple times because I lost all my gear in black zones several times). Soon enough within a couple days I was running solo bz content and group content. It really gave me the same adrenaline rush as the old swg and eq1 days when I would die and lose all of my Equipment or I would make out with a bunch of silver. My third day in the game I setup a group to go to a bz, we really were a bunch of noobs going into a t6.1 bz, not knowing really what we are up to. Until, we randomly chose a solo dungeon, and low and behold there was a player inside who got trapped as soon as we entered. We chased him down, not doing too much damage until finally he collapsed. Opening up his body, 5 million plus a rare mount. It was one of the most memorable moments in all of my time playing mmo’s, to be a beginner and find such a bounty and still have to exit the dungeon and find our way through two black zones to get home and split the rewards. I highly recommend downloading Albion and playing the group content and finding your way into bz’s or mist asap. I’m a beginner but I’m hooked.

Great game

It’s been five years since I played games and that was WOW. ON and off over those five years I looked for something to play on my iPad and I found nothing. Couldn’t get into auto fight games or the cutesy Asian themed games. I found this a few months ago and love it. I actually went out and bought an Alienware laptop to play it. Yea it’s overkill for this game but so what. Mobile on my iPad 12.9 M1 is great as well and I use it sitting at bars. But when I’m back in my truck (I’m a long haul truck driver) I use my laptop. It is free to play. That review that claimed it wasn’t and it’s racist is goofy. You get a few benefits from paying a tiny amount, come on, 12 bucks isn’t much. There are plenty of players that don’t spend a dime. Since I drive a lot I don’t have the time some people have to earn the silver to be free to play so I pay. So what. That’s the way of the world. If you have money you can use it in life to make life a little easier. Overall I love the game. I bought New Life. I played it a few hours on launch and came right back to Albion and haven’t played New Life since. The only thing that is difficult for me in this game is full Loot PVP. I tried red zone once and got my behind kicked by like 10 guys within 5 min of entering. Maybe once I get better I will be able to run and hide more efficiently. I understand it’s a full loot PvP and people like that. It does add excitement. I just wish there was something to equalize the fights a little bit. So if say 10 guys try to attack one maybe only a few can attack at once and the others can’t to make it somewhat fair. But it is what it is. Still a great game.

Awesome game! But not so great community

Really loved how you can be who ever you wanna be and how you get to take part of the market. However, the community is not quite as I thought. Must of the time you’ll see people criticizing your build and guild members making you feel like you’re part of the guild without the companionship/fun part and just make you do stuff. At times you’ll find a lot of hackers where you would normally go to loot. I have around 4 days worth of playing it and this are some of the issues that I and a handful of people had to deal with. Despite all of this, I really loved this RuneScape game style tbh. Though there’s a couple of things that you shouldn’t even try to do because of the bigger guilds and the veterans who started since beta. At the moment, it’s a waste of time to spend time crafting equipment or buying a store because of the cartel that exists in the game and the bigger players trying to run any kind of business out. The way you progress is very satisfying. It follows this ideology that practice makes perfect which really suits it. You will try to specialize on your equipment slowly while you unlock new tiers or rarity of equipment that you can equip. Wouldn’t recommend playing solo. If you’re playing with a handful of people, stick with them and don’t interact with others since there have been cases of people joining groups just to tell the assassin where you are.

Fun fun and still fun

Hello, I hope you all are well. I want to thank those who are behind the scenes constantly improving this game… I had a diagnosis of tongue cancer a year ago. That changed my whole world. Anyway, I used to play WOW (World of Warcraft- I was not good at it and loved it at the same time), years ago. When I was diagnosed, I was very focused on my business and had no time to really play anything. Long, long story short, I was looking for something on my phone to distract me from all the complications that come with treatment. I lucked out. As a old head (my kids might say), I found a game that offered more than fighting, farming, crafting, gathering, looting, ganking, playing with others or solo,and generating an empire. You can do it all… In other words, this has a free world where if you can’t fight, hate gathering, don’t like animals, then you can just figure out how to craft on your own time. And I had a lot of time… I tried almost everything (I still am not a great gamer but had fun). I am back at work now and have all the responsibilities of being a husband and dad but I found Albion Online to be self care (oh, I forgot the fishing, cooking, open markets buying/selling and creating mounts.) So things are better but stress continues to be a good reason to focus on playing this game… shoot some days I just get on to chop wood… (definitely an old head)… Anyway, I enjoy the imagination put into this game… please don’t lose the fun part of this game to generate riches… You made a man ( or the kid in me), a place to wonder in one of the toughest times in his life… keep that part of the game alive… thank you … The old head 😉

I love how there are so many different classes and areas you can go down that are low risk and you can still progress in the game. Of course doing the higher risk higher reward(black zones) is great but you have the chance of losing everything. However you don’t need to do it to progress. On top of that you can play so many different sets and I love how the tier system works allowing you to run the same set just lower tier and slowly upgrade it into 4.1 into rebuying a 6.0 then upgrades to a 6.2 for instance all the way up to 8.4 which in my opinion is great for practicing the set before you play it in black and red zones. You also have hellgates which are so much fun along with corrupted dungeons both can be lethal and non lethal which is a great idea letting the person choose if they are willing risk what they have to maybe get something better or something more. Then you have things like normal dungeons and group dungeons that you both can do with a group solo dungeons being able to solo but can be fun to run with a friend. You also have arena which is another thing that is just great for pvp practice in larger groups without the worry of losing your items as long as you do non lethal.

Great game

My son and I were looking for a game to play together that operated like WOW. We new this would be a trail run for us, and we wanted some time to get into the game, so we started over Christmas break 2023. We did pour a good amount of time into it, and we have seen the returns. We really like this game. We have not found it difficult to make game currency (silver). We have not found it to be difficult to advance. We are not PVP guys. We stay in Tier 5 and down areas. We are settling into a grove. Oh, we did each buy a month of premium. I don’t know if we will continue, but I have no problem supporting a game if it is fun. I have not found the in-apps purchases to be intrusive or even necessary. I will say the 30 learning points you get from premium service is great, but I could see us grinding through without them if we choose to go back free. We are 3 weeks in and we are making about 400k silver per day each doing about an hour of grinding. The only thing I have not liked is not being able to do something quick if I have 15 during my day before I start playing at night. Hard to get into anything without dedicating an hour to it. There might be some things we don’t know about yet, but this is my biggest complaint thus far.
