Smilegate is finally kicking things into gear for its upcoming MMORPG, Eclipse: The Awakening, by giving its teaser page a fresh lick of paint. Along with the revamp, they’ve dropped a brand-new key visual and a teaser trailer that offers a cheeky glimpse into the game’s overall mood.

Eclipse: The Awakening is a cross-platform MMORPG for PC and mobile, with Smilegate handling publishing duties while Npixel takes the lead on development. The team is aiming to spice up the traditional formula by using 'Sanctuaries'—the game’s core feature—to inject a bit more strategic depth. If all goes to plan, we should see it launch later this year.

The updated teaser page features a mysterious character front and centre, setting the tone for what looks like a rather unique world. The trailer itself is a bit provocative, questioning the tropes that typical MMORPG players are used to, all in an effort to ramp up the hype for the 'new experience' they claim to be offering.

Smilegate has plastered '2026 COMING SOON' across the page, signalling that the wait is entering its final stretch. Expect them to feed us more scraps of information via their official YouTube and other social channels in the coming months.

Shin Jae-ik, an executive at Smilegate, noted, "We wanted this teaser page to clearly communicate the direction and atmosphere we're aiming for with Eclipse." He added, "We’ve got plenty more content lined up for our social channels, so do keep an eye out for what makes this title stand out from the crowd."
