Meridian 59


Meridian 59: Resurrection is a revival of one of the first 3D MMORPGs ever released on the commercial market. In 1996, 3DO launched Meridian 59 after a lengthy and successful beta test. Over the next several years, multiple updates ensured a rich, dynamic, progressive, and well-balanced game-play experience. Now, twelve years later, Meridian 59 is back, polished to perfection, and offered free of charge.
