Although a number of companies have been trying to break into the gaming scene, Amazon has perhaps been one of the most determined, putting a lot of effort and time into trying to find its place in such a competitive industry. Last month, the major retailer launched Cruciblea free-to-play team-based sci-fi shooter that didn't exactly set the world on fire, currently holding a 56 on Metacritic.

It seems the company isn't taking long to launch its next big product, however, with its new open-world MMO New World supposedly launching this August. Those looking to get a better grasp of Amazon's newest video game venture are in luck as well, with the company dropping a brand new gameplay trailer at the PC Gaming Show event yesterday.

The trailer itself shows off a better glimpse of the title's world, with the game seeming like a mix of a number of different genres and styles. The footage highlights classes that utilize guns, swords, hammers, spears, and even magic, making the title appear like a fairly broad MMO mixing pot that allows users to play however they choose. They'll need these weapons badly, however, as the title appears to be flooded with a number of different ghouls, monsters, and giant beasts. From zombies and lumbering giants to demonic spirits and colossal broadsword wielding knights, it seems the game's antagonistic forces are varied and numerous.

The core focus of the game seems to be fighting these adversaries through a wide number of environments, with the trailer showing off eerie swamps, stone ruins, and even some sort of hellish field with demonic portals. Alongside that, it appears base defense is a key part of the title, with the trailer also showing numerous players defending flags from waves of enemy monsters. The trailer also comes with the announcement that a beta will be available next month, so players can try their hand at New World very soon.

It seems player feedback regarding Amazon's new MMO hasn't exactly been stellar, however, with fans in the comment section criticizing its dated visuals and gameplay. One commenter claims "I don't know hey, I really want a new mmo to play but everytime I watch a new New World trailer I get less and less excited for it," while a second remarks "Would have been cool in 2010, not sure about now." It seems fans aren't entirely sold on Amazon's next gaming venture, so its beta is going to have to turn a lot of heads when it launches in July.

New World will be available on August 25 for PC.
