Each week, we scour the internet for all things indie MMO-related, so you don’t have to. This week, BitCraft recaps Closed Alpha 2, Corepunk halts pre-orders, and Monsters & Memories gives a development update. Plenty of other stuff is also going on, so let’s quit wasting time and get started with this week’s Indie MMO Spotlight.
BitCraft
This week, a new Letter from the Producer was posted. The letter recaps Closed Alpha 2, what worked and what didn’t.
Broken Ranks
A huge QoL update is coming to Broken Ranks in a few days. The update is expected to hit on September 9th and will bring nearly 60 improvements aimed at making Broken Ranks more enjoyable.
Corepunk
Pre-orders of Corepunk have been halted. And no, it doesn’t mean that Corepunk is joining the other indie MMOs that have shut down this week; the exact opposite is happening. According to a new blog post, pre-sales are ending because the current sales have generated the funds the team needs to get to the next phase of development, specifically Early Access. The post also states that sales will resume at the start of Early Access, which is November 26.
Cyborg Immortal
SB Games posted their September Update this week, and it included the announcement that Cyborg Immortal will be launching into Early Access on Android. Unfortunately, an exact date wasn’t given.

Community requested QoL updates and an upgrade to Unity 2020.3 LTS were the focus of this week’s patch. The Free Play Week was also extended once again, this time to September 9th.
