MMORPGs have historically beenthe domain of PC gaming. Lately, many popular MMOs likeFinal Fantasy 14orWarframehave expanded onto the console market. Some even found their fortune in this previously untouched market. The final frontier for MMORPGs is the mobile market, still untouched by most big names of online gaming.

Mobiles are built withsocial interactionsin mind and are unsuitable for more than low-stakes grinding. Given that, they should be a natural fit for the MMORPG formula. Yet, finding the mobile MMO to suit one’s needs isn’t as simple as it seems. The market is certainly more popular than it used to be, but not so much that one or two titles dominate the genre, likeWorld of WarcraftandFinal Fantasy 14among PC MMOs.

Black Desert Mobileis a port ofBlack Desert Onlinethat players can always bring with them. In truth, the two are completely different games, with no cross-play, no trading, and no transferring characters from game to game. The mobile version isn’t as popular as the PC and console game, but it’s very appreciated in its niche: autoplay MMOs.

What popularizedBlack Desert Onlinein the first place was its status as a rare action-based MMO. It’s ironic, then, thatBlack Desert Mobileis one of the most popular autoplay mobile MMORPGs.

EVE Echoesstarted as the mobile spin-off of space sim MMOEVE Online, but for many players, it has all but surpassed its predecessor. Unlike the originalEVE, this mobile game automates the repetitive actions that move the virtual life of its players. Mining, traveling, and even combat are always just a few taps away.

Streamlined gameplay aside, both EVE games are quite similar, as they simulate a breathing world with deep emergent economic and political systems. Still,EVE Echoesoffers no interaction with the players of its bigger brother: that means no cross-play, no community bridging the two, and no incentive to switch from one game to the other.
