Dawngate was EA's first dip into the crowded pool of the MOBA market, but they put together a studio known as Waystone Games and they created something special. Unfortunately, the game wasn't doing as well as EA had hoped, so they chose to cut their losses and disbanded Waystone.

Yet, all hope was not lost. The Dawngate subreddit still remains active; it is here that a small part of the community started work on "Project Dawngate Rebirth," which eventually became known as AetherForged. AetherForged is currently being created by o7Studios, a small team of 20 passionate developers with an ambitious goal.

We are creating a truly unique MOBA. We're taking the basic development philosophies behind Dawngate and building on them. We are able to look back at existing MOBA games and see what worked, what didn't work, and where there's potential for beneficial additions. The result will be a refined and polished experience with smoother gameplay, more engaging mechanics, and an immersive world with a heavy focus on lore.

Please visit the AetherForged subreddit or our ModDB page to learn more about the game!
