Forums - PC Discussion - Blade & Soul is coming to the West!

Vasto on 20 May 2015

Blade & Soul will be coming to North America & Europe free-to-play in English, French,and German! We are very excited to confirm that Blade & Soul, the martial arts MMORPG from NCSOFT, will be coming to the West this Winter! Blade & Soul is an action-based martial arts MMORPG set in a fantastical Ancient Eastern world, with a story of revenge and vengeance that follows traditional wuxia literature. You’ll be battling enemies with a strategic- and combo-based combat style and channeling your inner chi to perform supernatural Windwalking abilities such as gliding through the air, running across water, and sprinting up walls. We’ll be revealing more information in the following weeks and months, but for now you can check out our first trailer below.

Wooooooooooow. I waited for this to come over for so long.

I almost don't believe it.....

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Yea, I guess NC Soft waited for a good time to release it because there is nothing really coming in 2015.

Just for reference, this was supposed to launch on PC and PS3 in the West like 5 years ago.  -__-

Man, I remember when this was first announced, it was a pretty big deal back then. I worry that's too outdated now after 5 years.


Its only 3 years old and still looks amazing. Coming Free To Play when nothing else is coming this is the game mmo players will be playing. Black Desert is the only game that looks better and its not coming to 2016.

It was supposed to be released a lot earlier. It was in a lot of development hell so it got pushed back a ton.

It was supposed to be included in Sony's 2007 E3 presser where they said NCSoft was supposed to be developing MMOs for release on the platform. Regardless, I'm excited to try it out.
