As a warrior, you battle fearsome enemies, master weapons, and harness powerful magic to protect your realm. Join millions of adventurers in one of Europe's biggest online RPGs, form guilds, engage in intense PvP combat, and strive to become a living legend across a sprawling open world.

Neverwinter is a free-to-play, action MMORPG based on the acclaimed Dungeons & Dragons fantasy roleplaying game. Explore and defend one of the most beloved cities from the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting as it rises from the ashes of destruction, taking you from besieged walls to subterranean passageways.

Brave adventurers from across the Savage North must answer the call to help restore the city while fighting off evil forces conspiring in the dark places of the world.
