After a successful Kickstarter campaign and a thousand backers prepared to enter Crowfall's pre-alpha testing phase, ArtCraft surprised players with the announcement that a PvP team game mode, Hunger Dome, will be the focus of the initial pre-alpha test. In Hunger Dome matches, teams participate in a single-elimination deathmatch, scavenging for weapons and armor as the map is consumed by the devouring maelstrom called "the Hunger".

Lindsay "geektr0n" Ferguson hosts ZAM's latest installment of Friday Update Arcade! Topics discussed include TwitchCon, Crowfall's Kickstarter, GTA V PC edition hitting another delay, the Supernova reveal and more.

If you've ever fantasized over the possibility of having "more Game of Thrones" in your MMORPG, you may have your longtime wishes answered. From creators Gordon Walton (Executive Producer of Ultima Online, The Sims Online, Star Wars: Galaxies and Star Wars: The Old Republic) and J. Todd Coleman (Creative Director of Shadowbane, Wizard101 and Pirate101) comes a brand new entry into the MMORPG genre that's being created by the team at ArtCraft Entertainment.

Prepare to be taken into the world of Crowfall.

ArtCraft Entertainment has announced that Crowfall will be using the Voxel Farm technology platform. While the game will be using voxels, the latest FAQ describes them as being "much, much smaller... so small, in fact, that you can't see them." All Crowfall worlds will be utilizing voxel tech; in the Campaign Worlds, this allows for a fully destructible world, while in the Eternal Kingdoms it opens up a world of possibility via player customization.
