Norse is moving off Steam April 15th

Greetings,

We aren't sure if you noticed but we have halted development of the Steam version of Norse. The reason for this is because we will be moving off the Steam platform for this game. We want to provide a better experience and a more community driven game. We also want to provide support for any device you may want to play Norse on.

Introducing... PlayNorse.IO! Norse will become a completely browser based game. We've been working on repopulating the game environment on our final platform, PlayNorse.IO. This game is heavily in development but we plan on stopping the Steam servers completely on April 15th, but this isn't the end! You can join us and the community on our Discord or play the new version of the game at playnorse.io.

This is far from the end of Norse but we feel IO games is the way to provide an amazing 2D MMO experience that will be heavily community driven. We understand this is our 3rd time changing the engine completely and we understand your frustrations... The Steam game was just very limited on what we could do and how we could expand the brand and game itself. We hope you will give it another shot on our IO based version.

Hope to see you there,
Affliction Networks LLC.

Norse Pre-Alpha Launch! (The Rewrite)

After years of development.. And reworking the entire game from scratch.. We at Affliction Networks can now announce Norse will be going fully live with PRE-ALPHA today at 8PM EST.

It's been along time and we put a ton of effort into completely redoing the game from the ground up. We've come to a point that we finally feel ready to open the doors for this pre-alpha of the rewrite. Please keep in mind all the reviews at the time of this posting are from the previous iteration of the game. The Norse team took a ton of time to implement and setup the game that will hopefully satisfy the community as a whole. Regardless of how you wrote your review now or then we respect and cherish your feedback. We're looking forward to your feedback regardless of negative or positive and look to further improve the game to the communities liking.

Norse(Swordia) Status Update

As some of you may not be aware, Swordia was recently renamed to Norse due to a legal dispute regarding the name. Development is still in progress and we redid the entire game from scratch to bring a much better experience to our players and community. We updated our front page with some screenshots of the updated game engine, code named Atheme++... The new engine is designed to allow us to fluently and beautifully tell our Norse(Swordia) story with much further detail then ever before. We have an active Discord and we would love it if our remaining community joined our new Discord.



We have a whole development team dedicated to bringing this game to it's peak point.. With that said we are actually ahead of schedule and will be opening again for alpha testing once again soon. Join our Discord above for more information and to request to join the Alpha!

We hope to see you there,
Affliction Networks Staff

Swordia's Future!

Some have been wondering, what has been going on with Swordia? Our team has been working hard on remaking the game in a new engine to bring it to our high expectations.

Affliction Networks, makers of Steam game Bang! Howdy, will be taking over the development and management of Swordia. We are still very community orientated as we were before but just under new management. MCKZPog has officially retired from Swordia and we're going to work our hardest to make sure the community remains happy and bring out an awesome game for everyone to play.

For now we are focusing on single player.. Yes, I said it.. We're working on a full single player story for Swordia and eventually hope to bring a multiplayer aspect to it.

You can find our new Discord here https://discord.gg/H7QNPgG

Make sure to read the rules in #welcome then click the Check mark in Discord if you agree to them.
Finally head on over to #roles to grab your Swordia access tags.

As for now all builds have been temporarily disabled until we are ready to release the updated game.


We are excited for the future and we look forward to seeing you there.

Version 6.1 Released!

Greetings Swordians,

We have released Version 6.1 of Swordia.. This one is a large update mainly to programming but also adds some nice stuff for the players too..

The update includes:

A ton of bug fixes and minor security patches
Anti-cheat system
Anti-bot system
Item buff changes

We also created a Nexus spell for EVERYONE.. Available at all levels and this spell has replaced the old spell that used to require levels. We also added Pario Porta spell to all classes at Level 15. This will allow you to use /mark to mark locations and then create a portal to that location at your own convenience.

With the update we also moved to a much larger and more powerful set of servers to host the game. No data has been affected by this move but it's mighty fine servers now.

Happy Farming,
The Swordia Team
