Do note that schedules and times always change in the gaming industry especially during this few months, so take these information with a pinch of salt.
● No confirmed release schedule yet for Blade & Soul 2, though something might happen in the 4th quarter (October to December) rather than the 3rd quarter.
● There will be no effect on NCsoft’s other big mobile game, Lineage 2M, as Blade & Soul 2 is said to be targeting another group of audience.
● As the PC version of Blade & Soul performed very well overseas, the development of Blade & Soul 2 also took the overseas market into consideration.
● The team will launch Blade & Soul 2 in South Korea first before ironing out overseas plans.
Interestingly, there were no questions asked about the other 2 Blade & Soul mobile games currently in development, Blade & Soul M and Blade & Soul S. Stay tuned for updates!
