About FortemWorks and Ember Sword
FortemWorks is a development studio working on the upcoming Free-to-Play MMORPG Ember Sword.

As gamers, we find ourselves chasing the hallmarks of our past for a fleeting sense of nostalgia, only to be let down as we discover the same reinvented wheel. With Ember Sword, we plan to set the wheel ablaze and from its ashes will rise an experience that could start a new era in gaming history.
