Best MMORPGs on PS4 That You Can Play Right Now
DC Universe Online
DC Universe Online is a free-to-play MMORPG that has been around since 2011. Starting on the PS3, it eventually made the jump to PS4 in 2013.
Players don’t actually control an established DC Comics character. Instead they take on the role of a new, original character and have to choose between joining the Hero or Villain factions. Throughout the game, players interact with a plethora of iconic DC heroes and villains.
If you’ve always wanted to become a member of the Justice League or The Society, then DC Universe Online is the MMORPG for you.
Final Fantasy XIV
Final Fantasy XIV is a game that we would recommend to both MMORPG fans and JRPG fans alike.
It retains the series’ high standard of storytelling and world design. The characters are memorable, and the stakes of the narrative continue to grow with each expansion that is released.
There is a high level of variety in the standard dungeons, and the end-game raids are exciting, challenging, and a treat for the eyes and ears.
It is one of the few PS4 MMORPGs that uses the subscription & pay to play model, but the quality and quantity of content updates helps justify the subscription fee.
Planetside 2
Planetside 2 is a free-to-play MMORPG/first-person shooter hybrid. It currently holds the Guinness World Record for the biggest first-person shooter battle in a video game: over 1158 players.
Planetside 2 doesn’t incorporate a typical quest system. Instead players have to work to capture enemy territories. Members of hostile factions have to be taken down in order to gain control of more facilities and bolster your own faction.
The game’s class system includes different military classes, such as Infiltrator, Heavy Assault, and Combat Medic. Like in most MMORPGs, your class determines your stats, skills, and what types of equipment you can take into battle.
