After waiting nearly six years since the release of the original motion picture, fans can finally "jack in" to a fittingly persistent-world version of The Matrix with this 2005 MMORPG. The game is designed to present a living city, full of tall buildings, dark alleys, and blissfully unaware citizens, just waiting to be manipulated by those select few "red pills" who realize it's all a grand illusion. Because the premise is that the game world is merely a digital representation of reality, players have more character customization options and can swap skills in and out by simply "uploading" them — unlike many earlier persistent-world RPGs, in which character development can be much less malleable. As in the movies, combat involves lots of seemingly impossible moves, such as mid-air "wire-fu" melee and "bullet time"-styled slow-motion action sequences. The creative team behind the films was consulted through the development of the game world; though designed to stay wholly faithful to the modern mythology that has engaged fans of the movie trilogy, The Matrix Online is set after the events of the third film, allowing players to forge their own new legends in the virtual world. ~ T.J.
