Hamburg, April 28, 2022 – gamigo and Dynamight Studios hope Closed Beta testers of the first truly dynamic, isometric open-world MMORPG, Fractured Online, packed an extra coat, sandals, and an umbrella because its latest update is adding support for the game’s temperature and weather system.  

Depending on their location, players can find themselves sitting in their comfort zone on a clear, sunny day to then be fighting for their lives as they attempt to survive brutal blizzards, torrential thunderstorms, or severe sleet storms. These weather conditions are a direct result of Fractured Online’s temperature system. And just as temperatures can influence the weather, it will also have an effect on the player’s stats as permanent Chilled or Warm status effects can put a damper on an ongoing adventure.

Chilled and Warm status effects are not exclusive to the temperature system. Player spells can also cause the status effects to be triggered or negated, depending on the sorcery that’s used.
