WHAT IS THE WAKFU MMO?
WAKFU is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG), which comes to life in a fantasy universe created by Ankama. Just like its big brother, DOFUS, WAKFU transports you to a world in which magic and humor are omnipresent.
Whether you choose to incarnate a Iop Warrior, a combat medic Eniripsa or a Sram thief skilled at melting into the shadows, you will discover varied and original character classes, a tactical turn-based fighting system and strange and colorful lands.
WAKFU is ideal for both experienced players and beginners: everyone can uncover their own strategic talents and overcome the challenges that will make their characters heroes of WAKFU!
WAKFU – THE STORY
A lot can happen over the years, and the World of Twelve has undergone more than its fair share of disruption since the demise of the DOFUS era.
Ogrest, a titanic ogre, managed the impossible: he reunited the six primordial Dofus! Unfortunately for him, he fell victim to his own success… Beside himself with grief, and giving free reign to his destructive power, Ogrest let his fury rain down on the World. Legends tell the story of a cosmic battle between the gods, the ensuing floods and the birth of a titan.
When the player begins their adventure in WAKFU, most of the World is still engulfed by the water. Vast islands and multiple archipelagos bob around in a unique ocean. But history is still being written, and the World is beginning to think it’s about time some heroes showed up!
