We know many of you are excited to discuss Blade & Soul given the massive unveiling at this year's G-Star event, so we've taken the liberty to add the game to our game's list!
)
For the uninitiated, a brief overview of the game is available below:
Blade & Soul is a martial-arts based fantasy MMO from NCSoft. Developed by the team behind Lineage II with stylized art and character designs by famed artist Hyung-tae Kim, the game is inspired by Oriental martial arts and fantasy. Blade & Soul features lush environments and gameplay that borrows elements from fighting games, platformers, and even tosses in a few puzzles.
View the full game listing here, and be sure to discuss the game in our new Blade & Soul forums!

This game gets me HYPED!
It is the one game I have been dieing to try now for a very long time.
Kinda OffTopic:
What are the chances that Fallen Earth could be added to the Released Games forum? seeing as the game has been released for a few months now.
Would love to see it added, cant see any real reason for it not already having been done.

Hoping this game comes stateside... It will be the primary reason I get a new gaming rig thats for sure... Though if it game out for consoles (maybe the PS3) then I would be extremely happy..
Sometimes the devil smiles with an angel's face.
Why would you add a game to the game list when a North American version has not ever been announced?
In that case, why not add Dragonball Online or Mabinogi: Heroes, or any of the other multitudes of Korean MMORPGs?
whats a goon to a goblin?
Kind of stoked about this game. It's NCsoft though and I"ve never really liked anything they've done. I'm just hoping the combat is very action/fighting game based. However if it plays anything like Aion I'll be passing this by with my cruise control button on.
It will probably be way overhyped and fall way short of whatever they are pushing. NCsoft is worse IMHO than SoE when it comes to making bad games and overhyping them.
The only advice I can give is if you dont get into a beta for any NCsoft game wait for at least a few weeks post release to see if its worth risking money on.
Well all the hype is coming from people not from ncsoft same thing happened on aion ncsoft releases a video people make 5+ threads here saying same thing.
The hype mostly comes from people not companies.

Thanks Dana

theres already a NA trailer out and its been confirmed its coming to the states.
There will be an english version.. They even have a site.. no info but you can watch the trailer again....

One of my most anticipated games for sure.
Has potential as did L2 but as with all NCsoft games lately it will no doubt turn into another rendition of Bot Online.
There was an old announcement about release earlier this year... but it was delayed to an unknown date because they want to release the pc version with the console version.. normally a beta was planned for the end of this year
Another thing that might be interesting.. or better let's say, that i would find great, though i'm a pc gamer, would be if the fight control would be beat'm up game style.. so combos by clicking different keys in a special order.. but i dread that's just my wish
Nevertheless really waiting for this game
Looks EPIC!!!
NCSoft's making a console game?
I think you hit the nail on the head, NCSoft has for me become synonymous with BOT-Infested Grinders, their track-record in the west is bloody terrible, Guild-Wars was the exception rather than the rule, their only good game in a stable of "nice-looks, terrible games".

some news a bit older from this year quoted this.. yes..
if i remember correctly.. some of the news where taken from an interview with the lead designer of Blade & Soul
Weird how some companies you can tell just from their screenies. Probably an engine thing.

SHould be interesting, Korea has a lot of good games that are not your traditional grinder come out of it soon> Continent of the Ninth, silkroads two, this, and a good number more. Something to keep an eye out for.
Korean mmos are going in an entire new direction and they all look fantastic. Until Western mmos come out of the WoW clone era I will not touch them.

There is no console version of Blade & Soul.
NCsoft had a deal with Sony to develop games for the Playstation 3, but this has been canceled.
Because this is "MMORPG" not "USA MMORGP" site.
