Meridian 59 : Evolution Overview and Recent Content

Meridian 59: Evolution is a 3D PvP-oriented game. Its original incarnation was released in 1996 and is widely credited as the first graphical MMORPG. That original release was overhauled and relaunched in 2002, with 3-D graphics and many new upgrades.

The game does not have a class system, but rather a skill system. But the usual questing, monster hunts, and raising skill levels, exploration, and character customization are there. PvP is the bread and butter of Meridian, and most of the recent updates have focused on adding new modes and tweaking the system.
