Dark and Light is a fantasy survival sandbox from Snail Games, a reimagining of the 2006 MMO of the same name, whose rights Snail bought in 2008. The new version runs on Unreal Engine 4 and entered Steam Early Access on July 20, 2017.
You land on Archos, a moon of the shattered planet Gaia. You gather food and water, build a home, tame local creatures and learn magic tied to elemental forces. Days are fairly calm and nights are riskier; during eclipses the wildlife turns frenzied, but rare magical resources appear. Besides official servers, including PvP ones, there is single-player, co-op and Steam Workshop mods.
In practice it is a server-based survival game rather than a classic MMO. The big drawback is that development has stalled: the developers' last Steam announcement dates from 2020, and Early Access never ended.
