About

Launch

The Aurora World was first revealed in the Philippines during the GameX Mercs Final Tournament held on May 9, 2014, at SM North EDSA Cyberzone Annex in Quezon City, Metro Manila.

Closure

Both Massive Gaming and The Aurora World were unexpectedly shut down in April 2015, after the former's CEO fled the company. The sudden closure revealed how the company was grossly mismanaged and showed, among other fraudulent and criminal activities, that it was not paying the required royalty shares to Aurora Interactive.
