Shortly, Crowfall is medieval fantasy PvP MMO based on fighting for territory and voxel building & destruction (think: medieval Eve meets Everquest Landmark or Minecraft), it will be buy to play etc. For quick intro, say - it's IGN Wiki, Pantheon (gods/factions) and Archetypes (classes).

It was successfully kickstarted a year ago (March 2015) and it's budget is already $7M and rising, there is more than 110 000 registered supporters, no NDA and so on. Launch is still scheduled for December 2016, but no way in hell they are going to make it - I would bet on mid-to-late 2017. Here is some early (pre-alpha, have mercy!) test footage:



Another interesting detail is - player's identity i.e. account is tied to the crow-spirit and NOT the body - this will include frequent changes of class, race and sex!? In other words, once you die you'll have to fly and find a new body, unless you got friends and/or spare one nearby.

This, same as Crowfall's horizontal progression system, resembles Eve: spirit/body parallels pilot/ship, and bodies can be crafted (or even stolen or looted in some cases) through necromancy skill - in qualities from white/green to epic or legendary, to use WoW terms. A little comic about death:

Couple new videos, starting with TheLazyPeon's alpha test preview. If you know about the game, skip first ~100 seconds - that's where he uses old footage to explain Crowfall to his subscribers:



...then some combat by ItsZiz:



...and this is what you get by mixing Van Helsing with guinea pig (!) and giving it stealth:
