In a rather short and brief notice, NCsoft announced recently that Blade & Soul 2 will launch in South Korea on August 26, 2021. As previously mentioned, Blade & Soul 2 is a prequel to the original PC MMORPG, and will launch for both mobile and PC platforms (via Purple) on the same day with cross-play. A couple of new videos were released last week as well, highlighting the races and costumes of the game. NCsoft claimed that the total number of pre-registrations was 7.46 million, which ended on July 19, 2021.
