However, in this list, we would like to introduce you to MMOs where this can be avoided entirely. What defines a non-combat MMO? Multiplayer games with no combat at all often rely heavily on social components. There are also some MMOs with action but options. We want to introduce you to 5 games with (almost) no combat. Plus, you’ll find other MMOs at the end that you can theoretically do without fighting.
