The South Korean studio Npixel continues to showcase progress in the development of Chrono Odyssey, its ambitious open-world MMORPG. In its latest update, the developers unveiled a complete overhaul of the lighting system that completely transforms the look and feel of the world of Setera.
The team explained that this new approach aims to deliver greater visual depth and realism by blending ambient lighting with more natural shadows. The result is an environment that alternates between dark, mysterious landscapes and areas of breathtaking beauty, creating a more immersive and cinematic atmosphere.
According to Npixel, the graphical improvements are still in development, meaning that the lighting effects shown are not final. Even so, the first results represent a major step forward in the project’s artistic and technical direction, reflecting the attention to detail that the studio has promised since the reveal of Chrono Odyssey.
With these visual improvements, Chrono Odyssey aims to establish itself as one of the most visually impressive MMORPGs of the next generation, offering not only spectacular combat but also a unique and evolving visual atmosphere across the world of Setera.
