Dragomon Hunter

Dragomon Hunter, released in Asia as Dragon Slayer Online, was a free-to-play anime-styled action MMORPG from X-Legend (the studio behind Aura Kingdom and Eden Eternal), published in the West by Aeria Games. Players explored a huge world as one of four classes (Scout, Mercenary, Mage or Cleric), hunting and collecting over 100 unique Dragomon creatures as mounts or crafting material in fast, manually-aimed action combat. Aeria Games announced the game's shutdown in mid-2017, closing Western servers on June 29, 2017 after roughly 17 months of service, citing a significantly dwindling player count and internal resource constraints; the game was subsequently removed from Steam, and no stable public revival has been found.

Why you might like it

  • A deep monster-collecting system layered onto action-oriented, manually-aimed combat gave Dragomon Hunter a distinctive hybrid of Monster Hunter-style creature collection with Tera/Dragon Nest-style real-time combat.
  • Coming from X-Legend, the studio behind well-regarded anime MMORPGs Aura Kingdom and Eden Eternal, the game carried a strong pedigree for polished, visually cohesive anime-style MMORPG design.
  • A large roster of over 100 collectible Dragomon, usable as both mounts and crafting material, gave collection-focused players a genuinely broad long-term goal beyond simple character leveling.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Aeria Games permanently shut down Western Dragomon Hunter servers on June 29, 2017 after about 17 months, citing dwindling player numbers and resource constraints, and the game was removed from Steam, so it cannot currently be played.
  • No stable public revival, private server or successor project has been found under the Dragomon Hunter or Dragon Slayer Online names, so treat interest in this game as purely historical.
  • Community discussion around the shutdown noted the game lacked ongoing content updates like housing or additional explorable regions in its final months, which may have contributed to declining player retention before closure.
