It was announced in recent days that the international service under the banner MMORPG Tarisland will officially cease to operate on 4 November, when all services on the Android and iOS platforms will be closed. The game was first released in April 2023 and soon began the state-of-the-art closed test, in June of the same year in some parts of the country, in an early online test version, and in June 2024 globally.
The World of Tarris, developed by Level Infinite, a Western phantom MMORPG, was set in the context of an open world full of phantoms, combining the elements of magic, mysterious creatures and ancient civilizations. Players in the game can team up to challenge 5 copies and 10 people to team up, choose a variety of occupations with flexible gifted tree systems, experience the pleasure of confronting giant leaders, and support multi-platform on-line. The game went online on 21 June 2024, supporting the PC, Android and iOS platforms and achieving cross-platform play and progress sharing, providing a seamless game experience for players.
It is worth mentioning that the publication of the Tales World came at a time when the snowstorm and the Internet were easily terminated in early 2023, resulting in the State service of Monster World being suspended on 23 January 2023, leaving a huge gap in China ‘ s MMORPG market. The e-mail took the opportunity to launch The Tales World in an attempt to attract a group of players who had lost their clothes on the World of Monsters.
The game is highly similar to World of the Monsters in its fine arts style, professional design and play, and is referred to by players and media plays as “World of the Monsters of the Inquiries”. For example, the dragon-riding system in the game, the phantom scenes (e.g., Elf Tree City, Sky Boat) and the BOSS war design all bear a clear shadow of the Monster World. The announcement also explicitly committed the game to a non-Kryknot model, without selling attribute boosters, and emphasized cross-platform experience and season updates, in an attempt to create a fair and continuously updated MMORPG.
The Tales World quickly entered the internalization phase after its release in April 2023, and on 12 June 2024, the world went online, attracting over 3 million players to pre-register. The initial launch of the national service received some attention on the basis of fine images, a fluid cross-platform experience and a diverse occupational system.
In 2024, the snowstorm resumed its cooperation with the Internet, and World of Monsters officially returned on 1 August. This incident directly undermined the market competitiveness of the Tales World. As the classic MMORPG, which has 20 years of history and a large player base, the cultural influence, mature social ecology and continuous renewal of the World of Monsters is far beyond the experience that Tares World can offer. The rapid return of many players after the return of national uniforms has led to a significant reduction in the active players group in the Tales World.
There has been no update since March 2025 on the Tarris World official network, and the last message from the official microblogging stopped on 14 February 2025. The player feedback indicates that only one major update (the “Season 1” of February 2025) was launched after the game went online, and that the frequency of the update dropped sharply thereafter, without providing sufficient fresh content. Some of the players complain about the high repetition of content, the inexhaustibility of early assignments, and the strict PVP time limits (e.g. open only at specified times), which reduce the long-term appeal of the game.
The Tarrist World team issued an announcement through X that the game would end on 4 November and that it would “reciprocate your long-standing love and support” and “register the inconvenience”. Since the announcement, the game has closed the new user registration and in-house purchase system, but the player can continue to experience the game and use the available props until it is closed. The game download entrance will be closed on 4 November and all services will be permanently suspended. The game does not release offline versions and does not provide any refund services.
