Detailed description

Wakfu is a turn-based tactical MMORPG and a Television Cartoon, under development by Ankama Studio and written in Java. It takes place in the same fantasy world as Dofus, 1000 years later. The game is currently in open beta testing.Just like its sister game, Dofus, Wakfu will be primarily pay-to-play, with a small free-to-play area for players to sample.

"In the time of Dofus, an ogre named Ogrest managed to get all 6 Dofus eggs for the sake of someone he loved. However, she was interested only in the eggs, and Ogrest killed her in a fit of rage. Later realizing what he`d done, he climbed to a mountaintop and cried for 1000 years. This brings us to the time of Wakfu. Now the "goal" is to defeat Ogrest, but, like Dofus, this is not necessary."

Each class has 35 spells: 5 tree structures of 7 spells corresponding to 3 elementary categories which change according to the class (fire, air, water…) a tree structure of support (neutral) and a tree structure of weapon skills (also known as Close-Combat). Each spell will profit from one hundred levels of power. The spells will progress to the wire of their use by the players. Contrary to several RPG (which wants players to evolve/move by obtaining spells increasingly more powerful) the character will be able to use all the spells available as of the beginning. The magic will be divided into eight elements: the lightning, wind, stasis (time), fire, ground, water, light, darkness and each class will have fates of four elements

Wakfu features the same classes as the ones in Dofus. Although they are the same classes, a lot of them had been revamped, giving them a different appearance to their Dofus counterparts. The modifications go from the simple addition of details to a total recasting of the design. Ankama has announced only 4 spells owned by the classes Sadida, Osamodas, Ecaflip, Sacrieur, Feca, Enutrof, Pandawa and Eniripsa. And 10 for the Cra, 20 for the xelor, sram, and Iop.

A French-language cartoon series based on the video game was produced by Ankama Animation. Like the video game, the show was animated with Adobe Flash software; all the production was done in France, with the help of few foreign animators. Ankama also opened "Ankama Animation Japan" in Tokyo but it is still unknown if this studio will be involved in any future production. The show actually premiered its first episode on the French channel France 3 on 30 October, 2008. The first two episodes are available for streamed viewing on the Wakfu website. During the London MCM Expo, the first two episodes were shown for the first time in english.
