Esports

In 1689 AN, Monster Interactive launched the Micras Warfare League, a twelve-team franchise league. All Twelve teams are located in the Florian mainland.

Controversies

The game since launch has been banned in some USSO countries, such as Jingdao. The Empire of the Great Jing normally bans the import of all Florian products, but takes draconian measurements against smugglers and consumers who are found to be in possession of this game. The franchise on a regular basis involves the player killing major Jingdaoese politicians and other important figures, which is seen as hostile propaganda. A group of three smugglers found trying to bring the game in over the Jingdaoese-Senyan border in a concealed compartment of their luggage while riding the train to Daocheng have been executed after pleading guilty to "attempting to undermine the stability of the Empire of the Great Jing". The franchise has also been criticised for the immense violent content it provides for the gamer which has led to the game being banned for people under the 18 becoming the first-ever video game in Floria to have such restriction.

After a motion was proposed the MTO, reports suggested that the franchise has been banned in Graecia due to the government being against content which could mentally harm young children. The only video game console available in Graecia, the Master System would have not been able to run the game so the banning has not affected the popularity of the game outside the traditional markets of Floria, fellow Raspur Pact markets, selected USSO markets and Hazar. Calbion has also banned the game due to its horrific content but the game was never intended to be sold in that market due to previous trade complications with the Iron Company and the Florian government.

A single-player only, version of the franchise, based around the original Micras Warfare game engine, was as of 1689 under development by the game's manufacturers and ESB Studios, as subsidiary of ESB Media. Intended for the Benacian market, Micras Warfare: Fracture Point is designed to be headline game included with the rollout of the Benacian Consumer Recreation Device (BCRD), a game console directly integrated into the closed Benacian Data Network and compatible with the majority of existing BDN terminals found in households across the former Shirerithian empire. The game, featuring a storyline where the player hunts the allies of Jaap van Pijpervale through the sewers of Shirekeep in the aftermath of the Kalirion Fracture, will form an integral part of the new Patriotic Virtual Learning Programme (PVLP) being pioneered by the governments of Elluenuueq and the UGB on behalf of the Raspur Pact. Sapient rights activists have condemned leaked gameplay footage which appeared to show the player brutally eradicating a nest of Deep Singers in the city's ancient underkeep, which they deemed to be a glorification of the Underkeep Massacre of 1644. The game is scheduled to be released, along with the BCRD console, in the first quarter of 1694.
