Chrono Odyssey Accused of Being a Copycat

Chrono Odyssey, which was highly anticipated in the MMORPG world, attracted attention with its magnificent trailers and dark cosmic atmosphere. However, what remained in players’ minds after the closed beta period ended was not so much the quality of the game as its similarity to New World. The game, which received praise at events such as Summer Games Fest, seemed very familiar to many players when it came to gameplay.

Is Chrono Odyssey Very Similar to New World?

Players who participated in the beta say that many points of Chrono Odyssey, from its fighting mechanics, resource collection and processing systems in the city to its menu designs, are almost identical to New World. Switching between two weapons to fight, resource processing benches in the city center and similar collection areas make players feel like they are playing New World. Some players claimed that even the castles and war camps on the map were copied one-to-one.

Twitch streamer Nosfer4tuX says that many structures, from castle designs to collection areas, are “borrowed” from New World, while Reddit users share a similar opinion. Players point out that even the teleport system and the colorful trees symbolizing rare resources are exactly the same. It should be added that the beta version has also been criticized for technical glitches and poor performance.

Although Chrono Odyssey tries to create its own line with dungeon design and more unusual theme details, this effort does not seem enough for most players at the moment. Players are already eagerly waiting to see how the development team will proceed to make the game unique with this feedback.
