The ArcheAge series

“ArcheAge” is a family of names. Chronicles is the Early Access PC game. The original, Unchained, a mobile title, a legacy-server project, and ArcheAge S are not the same install.

ArcheAge launched in Korea on 15 January 2013 and in the West on 16 September 2014. ArcheAge Unchained launched on 15 October 2019 and was merged back into the original in November 2023. North American and European service ended on 27 June 2024. ArcheAge 2 was announced on 24 September 2024 and later renamed Chronicles, which opened Early Access on 3 November 2026. ArcheAge S is aimed at the second quarter of 2027. ArcheAge WAR is Kakao Games’ mobile game on Google Play. A project called ArcheAge Classic shows up in search as a legacy-server effort. I have not verified who operates it, so this page does not link to it and does not tell you to join.
