Reviving the dead.
This week I wanted to put together a list of dead MMOs that you can inexplicably still play. Apparently I wasn’t the only one with an itchy finger to write about this subject, but while Justin’s piece covers a number of titles that currently still in development, I wanted to focus on emulators that can be played right now. I also tried to avoid some titles that are running but for all intent and purpose basically dead on their own.
So here are 10 dead MMOs that you can actually still play. Please note that none of these servers have been explicitly endorsed by the original developer/publishers.
1: Cartoon Network Fusionfall
- FanonFall: A FusionFall Fan Fiction Wiki is a fan fiction database about the Cartoon Network MMO, FusionFall. Fan Fictions from the nanos to locations, fan series, tie-in comics, detailed characters bios, aliens and much more.
- See full list on fusionfall.fandom.com.
- FusionFall's development, however, stopped so Cartoon Network could focus on other games such as Project Exonaut, Formula Cartoon, and FusionFall Heroes. The Holo Suit, an in-game outfit, used to change look, reflecting in-game events and the time of year.
Cartoon Network’s MMO Fusionfall may have shut down in 2013 but that doesn’t mean you can’t play it. A number of people have gotten together to revive Fusionfall and actually keep the game going in the form of two projects. Fusionfall Retro is a revival of the original game with the original 36 nanos and the game world recreated as you remember it. Fusionfall Legacy is a remastered, reimagined version with new visuals, new content, and a new game world.
Both versions are still receiving updates to this day.
2: Perpetuum
Perpetuum Online shut down back in 2018, but really only the official servers went offline. You can still buy the game on Steam where it enjoys a somewhat active community in the form of a server browser and player-hosted servers. If you played the game prior to Steam, you may even be able to still request a Steam key by emailing the developer.
3: Star Wars Galaxies
Star Wars Galaxies is great because no matter your preferred flavor of Old Coke vs New Coke, you’ve got something that can satisfy your thirst. For those who prefer the game before the combat upgrades, you have SWGEmu. If you want to play the game post-combat upgrade and possibly be playing on the bigger server, you’re going to want to go with SWG Legends.
You might even find MassivelyOP’s Bree harvesting meat and selling bots.
4: Asheron’s Call
Back when Turbine got out of the business of making good games, Asheron’s Call 1 & 2 were supposed to have officially sanctioned private server tools distributed. That never happened, but that didn’t stop existing and new servers from keeping the old MMO running.
Asheron’s Call emulators can be found here and here. Unfortunately for its few fans, AC2 never received the same treatment.
Fusionfall Cartoon Network
5: City of Heroes
Turns out City of Heroes was running for years under a secret emulator project only a few people had access to. Well now City of Heroes can be played by anyone in the form of the Homecoming servers. There are a ton of other servers emulating City of Heroes, but if you want the most populated and likely to stick around in the long term, we suggest going with Homecoming.
6: Club Penguin
Club Penguin isn’t just the home for many of your favorite off-color memes. Club Penguin Online is a recreation of Club Penguin as the original service shut down in 2017 because Disney doesn’t want to make games anymore. On the plus side you no longer have to pay for membership benefits. The downside? You’re going to have to start from scratch.
7: Warhammer Online
Warhammer Online shut down in 2013, but since 2014 Return of Reckoning has been running pretty much unopposed. I have personally played on the server from time to time and can vouch that it is stable and has a somewhat small but active user base.
8: Pirates of the Caribbean Online
Fusionfall Download
Another Disney title. Pirates of the Caribbean Online shut down in 2013 but you can still play it thanks to Pirates Online. The game appears to be well-maintained with a small but active community, and probably no risk of getting shut down by Disney.
#9: Age of Empires Online
Age of Empires Online was a fun game that lodged itself into the hearts of gamers only to be ripped out shortly after in 2014. Thanks to Microsoft releasing the developer kit for the game, AoE Online came back in the form of Project Celeste which can be played for free in online or offline mode.
Fusionfall Retro Download
#10: Toontown Rewritten
It’s kind of amazing that Disney, a company well known for a zealously litigious defense of its intellectual properties, has three MMOs on this list that they have allowed the community to run past the official sunset date. Maybe someone at the top realizes that the company would waste more on lawyers and actively push away people who just want to play their games in the process.
Toontown Rewritten is a fan emulator for Toontown. Of course.
And the fingers are pointing to a bitter, bitter person.
Today’s news piece comes to us courtesy of the Fusionfall Reddit community at least one of whom noticed that Cartoon Network’s Fusionfall made numero uno on MMO Fallout’s list of dead MMOs that you can still play. Well you could when I published the article back in February, you can’t now. Cartoon Network has seen to that.
When Cartoon Network shut down Fusionfall back in 2013, members of the community started working on and released private servers for the MMO. The servers have gone unrecognized by Cartoon Network both in not approving their presence and in the lack of any attempt to order the servers be taken down.
Until this week when the services went down and didn’t come back online. The Fusionfall Universe team acknowledged via Twitter that an official takedown was presented to them by Cartoon Network, and they were forced to comply.
Our team has received a take-down request from The Cartoon Network, Inc. under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). We respect their right to do so and are complying with their requests.

The small community of gamers enjoying Fusionfall are understandably out for blood, and according to members of the Reddit forum all signs pointed to one guy. Was it me? Was it you? No. It was apparently some bitter random person who was upset that his ideas weren’t getting used in the game, and that user allegedly sent malicious emails to Cartoon Network alleging that the team was engaging with money laundering, pedophilia, and other allegations, with the apparent goal being to convince Cartoon Network to DMCA the server, so the team would make the game data public.
Yes, if these allegations are accurate the game was pulled down because a child somewhere had a petty vendetta.

The unfortunate reality of the situation is that the Fusionfall servers were always operating on a cliff’s edge with the possibility of Cartoon Network’s lawyers taking notice at any given time. It is very much possible if not completely likely that the user who instigated the takedown was just hastening the inevitable.
Fusionfall Legacy
It’s a shame but sadly DMCA notices are an expected part of operating rogue servers.
