Wavertree Mountain

The humans are gone, and no creature alive knows why. Centuries later, six species have made the ruins of the old world their home, and two factions are fighting over what's left of it. Wavertree Mountain is an MMORPG where you choose a side, dig a burrow of your own, and decide what kind of creature you want to be.

One purchase. No subscription. No pay-to-win.

Six species, two factions

Stand with the Warren Compact as a Mouse, Squirrel or Chipmunk: burrowers and builders who hold the forests and lowlands and win by outlasting you. Or join the Ashborne League as a Rat, Lizard or Gerbil: scavengers and raiders who hold the wasteland and the coastal cliffs and win by getting there first. Every species has its own history, and you choose where your story begins.

A burrow of your own

Every character starts with a scrape in the dirt. Dig out new rooms as you find better picks, wall them in dirt, wood or stone, and fill them with beds, workstations and storage. Raise a barn, smithy, greenhouse or triage tent, then tunnel out to your faction's outposts.

Live your way

Wavertree Mountain is an adventure, but it is also a home. Not every creature wants to storm a dungeon. Some want to tend a garden on the edge of the Southern Forest, trade rare seeds on the beach where even rival factions do business, or spend an evening at the tavern swapping stories with strangers who become friends.

• Pick a specialization, from farmer and angler to engineer, doctor and smith. Each one makes something the others need.

• Grow crops, fish, raise bugs in your barn and cook for your friends. You can play as a pacifist and still thrive.

• Craft armor, weapons and gadgets for yourself and other players.

• Buy and sell at the regional auction houses, and become the island's go-to supplier of whatever you make best.

Fight for the island

Claim outposts and fortify them, and everyone on your side gets richer resource nodes, faster crafting, calmer critters and cheaper merchants. Hold them through PvP skirmishes and sieges, or lose them and watch the rewards go with them.

Fight with everything from sword and spear to slingshot and boomerang, each with abilities of its own. Block, shield bash and swap weapon sets mid-fight, and if you go down, a friend can get you back on your feet.

An island worth exploring

• Nine zones, from the misty cliffs of Rock Point to the City Ruins and the smoldering Charred Forest

• Instanced dungeons in every zone, with puzzles, bosses and rare loot

• Hundreds of missions, from your first foraging run to specialization chains and character questlines

• Characters who remember what you do for them, and reward you with recipes no loot table can drop

• Day and night, weather, and tides that open sea caves you can only reach at low water

Never alone

Join a guild and raise its hall, group up with friends, and share the island with hundreds of other players on every server.

And then there's the mountain

It has always been here, and the secrets of every species' past lie somewhere beneath it. Both factions are racing to find out what's down there first.
