With no boundaries, EVE Online battles are epic and vast.

EVE Online puts you in a war-torn universe and allows you to man ships and command fleets of weaponized death machines. The game involves trading, crafting, building, cooperation and a lot of death. You will get destroyed by enemy ships and often.

It is truly a challenge and shouldn't be taken lightly.It's one of the most massive and well-designed sandbox MMORPG's and with over 500,000 active players one of the fastest growing games in 2016. EVE: Valkyrie should also boost EVE Online's player base.

Play as a space pirate, capturing and keeping enemy ships and loot.

EVE Online's creators are unforgiving and laugh at people's misfortune if they act stupidly, but also listen to the community. EVE Online is designed to give its players real freedom –you can legally buy and sell accounts and scammers are very rarely punished.

10. Neverwinter

Neverwinter follows the classic MMORPG path to a tee, but polishes every single detail as much as possible. A classic take on the fantasy MMORPG, Neverwinter polishes off the essential elements of the genre.
