The World R:3
"The .hackers, the only players to clear the final mystery of The World. They became so famous that they became part of the very mythology of The World."
The World (ザ・ワールド, Za Waarudo) is the first massively multi-player online RPG since Pluto's Kiss. Developed for the ALTIMIT OS, The World had a lot of media hype, resulting in over 100,000 preorders being taken in November of 2007. The World was sold online for download, and in the first day alone it sold 4,576,623 copies.
The World was created by the genius programmer Harald Hoerwick under the name Fragment. Fragment was released as a limited beta approximately nine months prior to the release of The World. The beta was stopped early for unknown reasons and The World was released shortly afterwards.
The World R:2 (Revision 2) (ザ・ワールド 「リビヅョソ2」, Za Waarudo [Ribidyoso2]) is the successor to The World. In 2015, a fire destroyed most of The World's game data, so CC Corp quickly began work on a replacement. By splicing together the remaining data from The World with another game they were working on, they created R:2. It was released on Christmas Eve, 2015. However, fans of The World disliked the change as they were unable to transfer their character data to The World R:2, and many referred to the launch as "Goddess's Death". Despite this, the game goes on to sell 12 million copies by the time of the events of the G.U. Games, though still failing compared to its predecessor's 20 million copies sold.
In the year 2018, The World R:2 service suddenly ends.
The World R:X (Revision X) was a sequel to The World R:2 released in the year 2020. It is the game played by the characters of .hack//LINK. R:X is a handheld version of The World that runs on P-COM portable computers and utilizes the M3D headset. Like its predecessors, it incorporates a Guild system.
2030 - The World R:X service suddenly ends.
Since the end of The World R:X, The World has become very powerful. New viruses have found their way into the system and are causing havoc on the system. Aura is also becoming weaker and is sending mysterious E-mails to random people all over the world. The messages state that the viruses in The World are becoming stronger, and soon the real world will be in great peril. At the end of the message, a link is included. The link, when visited, Pulls the user into The World through their computer. They then appear in the Root Town of Mac Anu. That version of The World is called The World R:3.
