Varkand opens its gates

Welcome to VARKAND, a free browser MMORPG inspired by the classic Silk Road era. Your road begins with a Chinese or European warrior, ancient cities and caravan routes waiting to be explored.

Play on PC, tablet or phone without installing a separate game. Open play.varkand.com, create an account and choose your character. The browser loads game assets on your first visit; device performance and loading time vary.

As you learn the world, find a guild, meet unique bosses, and explore the trader, hunter and thief paths. Start with the beginner guide for your first 10 levels, or read the features overview.

This is the first chapter. Future announcements will appear on the news page.
