IN WILD WEST ONLINE YOU CHOOSE YOUR PATH

How you play the game and how you interact with other players is up to you! WWO's diverse dynamic gameplay systems accommodate a variety of different play styles and moral dispositions.

Want to be a prospector and mine for gold? Mine away! But be ready to fend off those who would rather let you do all the hard work then try to steal your riches. Of course, if you're a little wet behind the ears in a gunfight, you could always hire a hardened gunslinger to protect you.

Do you want to lie, cheat, rob, murder and carouse your way across the West. You bet you do, outlaw! But watch your back, some players will choose to stay on the right side of the law and become Deputies and Bounty Hunters. These frontier lawmen (and women) are charged with hunting you down and bringing you in — dead or alive.

PLAY ALONE OR FORM A POSSE WITH YOUR FRIENDS.
