GodsWar Online is a colorful free-to-play MMORPG based on Greek mythology and the conflict between two major city-states, Sparta and Athens. Players can join either side, take part in exciting adventures and engage in exhilarating battles against powerful monsters such as Medusa. They can also meet legendary heroes including Heracles, Theseus and Jason, and even Olympian gods.

The game features a robust equipment creation element with extensive enhancement and customization possibilities through the use of special gems.
