Kanishka looks into the ways that ArcheAge 2 could breathe some life back into the franchise, especially after the success - and issues - of both ArcheAge and ArcheAge Unchained.

ArcheAge: Unchained continues its pattern of instability into launch week, while Gamigo rushes to respond to player concerns. In-between the chaos and madness, join Emily as she dives in headfirst to and pray that she comes out of the queue for air.

Most of this week, our Bill Murphy has been playing and enjoying the more organic facets of life in ArcheAge… when he hasn’t been battling the excessively long queue times to get into the game.

Garrett Fuller takes a look at the buzz generated by ArcheAge, and questions whether the game's sandbox systems such as player trials really can work in practice.
