Catalog note

Not a persistent MMO

  • Styx - Master of Shadows is a single-player or co-op action RPG, not a persistent-world MMORPG.
  • It's catalogued here as "Action RPG / stealth" — a related but distinct genre from the persistent-world MMOs this site otherwise covers.
  • It's included in this directory because it's commonly searched for by people trying to figure out whether it counts as an MMO — this page exists to give you a straight answer.

Real MMOs to check out

  • This entry is intentionally excluded from MMOFinder's platform, genre, and catalog-wide statistics, since it isn't a persistent-world MMO.
  • If you enjoy the character-building and combat of action RPGs but want that experience in a persistent shared world with thousands of other players, look at established fantasy MMORPGs like Final Fantasy XIV, The Elder Scrolls Online, or Guild Wars 2.
  • If you came here specifically to check whether this game is an MMO: it isn't, by the definition this site uses (a persistent, shared, many-player online world) — but it may still be worth playing on its own terms.
