Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (officially abbreviated as WAR) is an upcoming massively multiplayer online role-playing game based on Games Workshop’s Warhammer Fantasy setting. It is currently under development by Mythic Entertainment and is scheduled to release September 18, 2008 . The game revolves around the continual worldwide conflict that the Warhammer Fantasy setting is known for, and the game will be geared toward ongoing, constant war.

Surrounded on all sides by fearsome adversaries bent on their annihilation, the leaders of the Dwarfs, the High Elves and the Empire forge a pact to fight together as one power. The Alliance of Order is born, and its members swear an oath never to lay down their swords until their enemies are destroyed.

Now, the greatest armies ever assembled collide in an epic war pitting the forces of darkness and destruction against a stalwart alliance of men, Elves and Dwarfs. A new age is dawning in the world of Warhammer. It is an age of bitter rivalry and lethal conflict, of vile treachery and legendary heroism. This is the Age of Reckoning.
