About Entropia Universe

Entropia Universe is a unique massively multiplayer online game (MMO) where virtual assets hold real-world value and players can participate in a thriving virtual sandbox economy. The platform has been live since 2003 and continues to push the boundaries of virtual economy design.Set in a persistent, single-shard universe, Entropia Universe offers a deep and evolving sci-fi world spanning multiple planets and vast space environments. Unlike traditional class-based MMOs, players progress through infinite skill development, with the freedom to define their own roles and paths.

Players can invest in in-game companies, own land areas, and even acquire shares that pay real dividends, connecting gameplay with genuine economic opportunity.Given its "no-class" system, and real cash economy, Entropia Universe has many professions that players can specialize and participate in such as:
  • Hunting - Hunt creatures, fight bosses, complete dungeons
  • Mining - survey the land and extract resources used in crafting
  • Crafting - Craft items in demand
  • Trading - Buy low, sell high. Become a skilled entrepreneur 
  • Taming Creatures - Tame sought-after creatures around the universe and sell them for profit
  • Beauty Services - Skill up and offer avatar modification services
  • Shop Owning - Buy and run your very own shop in a persistent world
  • Land Area Owning - Own a huge slice of virtual land to generate revenue from taxes
  • Investing - Buy and sell shares on the Entropia Exchange
  • PvP - Take on other players in lootable PvP
In April 2026, Entropia Universe launched the highly anticipated Fishing and Cooking systems! Discover over 100 different kinds of fish, mix, match and update your rods and attachments - and turn your catch into highly desirable consumable food to buff your avatar.
Every body of water in the universe can be fished in, be it Casting, Fly Fishing, Angling or even Deep Sea Fishing from the back of a boat. It's up to you to find the best combination of gear for the fish you want to catch.This update brings a whole new dimension to the in-game economy, offering colonists new careers and specialisations as avid fishermen or gourmet chefs.Entropia Universe has just launched its brand new tutorial and starting experience for the game. This new starter zone: Setesh, provides new colonists with a better start in the universe than ever possible before - so don't miss the opportunity to try Entropia today and be a part of a new Golden Age!

Best MMO on Steam! I know people complain about having to spend money on ammo, but it's no different from paying a subscription or buying microtransactions in games like WoW. At least with Entropia Universe, I can still log in and enjoy things like fishing or sweating for free. If my subscription runs out in other MMOs, I'm locked out until I pay again. The game is constantly receiving updates, and there's loads to do. Once you get past the learning curve, the game definitely becomes much more enjoyable!

Entropia Universe is one of the most poorly understood—and badly explained—MMORPGs still running. After 1,000 hours, I think it is also one of the most remarkable. Entropia was created during the golden age of MMORPGs, when developers were still trying to build virtual worlds rather than carefully managed sequences of content. It shows. This is an enormous persistent universe with more than 20 years of accumulated systems, history, property, equipment, professions and player knowledge. Its skill system is one of the most comprehensive I have ever encountered in an MMO. Hundreds of interconnected skills contribute in different proportions to professions covering hunting, mining, crafting, medicine, vehicles, spaceflight and more. You don't simply pick a class and follow a predetermined progression path. Your avatar gradually becomes the product of what you actually do. The crafting and economic systems are similarly deep. Resources are mined or looted, transformed into components, used in blueprints and eventually consumed by other players. Equipment wears out. Resources have fluctuating markup. Players own shops, estates and land. There is an auction economy. There are entire pr…

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
