For fans still yearning for the vibrant and unique MMORPG WildStar, which officially closed its doors in 2018, the dream of returning to Nexus might just be alive. While the official servers are gone, the dedication of the WildStar community has paved the way for private servers, offering a beacon of hope for players seeking to relive or newly experience this beloved game. Among these fan-driven initiatives, the concept of a Private Server Wildstar experience is gaining traction, spearheaded by projects like Nexus Forever and Genesis Prime.
The journey to revive WildStar has been a gradual but persistent effort. Nexus Forever emerged as an early project, aiming to emulate the game’s core functionalities. Progress has been deliberately paced, with developers cautioning enthusiasts that a fully featured experience is still a work in progress. However, for a segment of the WildStar player base, particularly those with a passion for roleplaying, a more tailored opportunity has arisen from this initial endeavor: Genesis Prime.
Genesis Prime stands as a fork of the Nexus Forever project, specifically designed to provide a dedicated home for WildStar roleplayers. Launched in February 2019, Genesis Prime built upon the foundations laid by Nexus Forever, focusing on features crucial for immersive roleplaying experiences. The server’s creators openly acknowledge their debt to both the original WildStar developers and the Nexus Forever team, stating on their informational page, “We stand (and roleplay) on the shoulders of giants… Genesis Prime owes a debt to the efforts of many devoted fans around the world.” This highlights the collaborative and community-driven nature of the private server WildStar scene.
Genesis Prime offers a compelling suite of features tailored for roleplay. Players can delve into extensive character creation options, including access to items that were even unreleased in the original game. Housing, a significant and much-loved feature of WildStar, is not only fully unlocked and functional but also expanded with custom items, allowing for unparalleled personalization. Beyond customization, Genesis Prime provides access to custom emotes and transformations, enriching social interactions and roleplaying possibilities. Social features such as guilds and circles are also available, fostering community building within the server.
Exploration, a key element of WildStar’s appeal, is fully embraced on Genesis Prime. Players have the freedom to explore the entirety of Nexus, with the ability to teleport to any location within the game world and even venture beyond the original boundaries. While combat and quests are not yet implemented, they are planned for future development, indicating the ongoing growth and ambition of this private server WildStar project.
For WildStar enthusiasts eager to jump back into Nexus and engage in roleplay, Genesis Prime offers a welcoming community. Joining the server involves a straightforward application process, outlined on their website. While there are steps to follow to gain access to both the community and the server itself, these are designed to ensure a dedicated and engaged player base, fostering a positive environment for those who deeply miss WildStar and its unique roleplaying potential. For those seeking a private server WildStar experience focused on community and roleplay, Genesis Prime presents a promising and actively developing option.
