http://www.bladeandsoul.com/uk/game-overview/


Blade & Soul® brings the world of Asian martial arts fantasy to life in this massively multiplayer online universe. Enter a lush world drawn from myth and legend, and bursting with action and intrigue!

Based on the distinctive visual style of acclaimed artist Hyung-Tae Kim, Blade & Soul combines martial arts inspired combat and Qing Gong action! Good and evil clash in a story of betrayal, revenge, battling factions, and warring gods.

Create your hero. Hone your martial arts skills. Unlock the secrets of Qing Gong. Choose your faction. Conquer your enemies. Bring honor to your clan.

Rise. Strike. Avenge.
Your tale of revenge unravels across a breathtaking world where martial arts and mythology meet in a furious clash of fists and betrayal.

Become a Powerful Fighter!
The path of vengeance begins with determination. Choose one of four unique races, and use detailed character customization tools to shape your persona with near-infinite possibilities.

Glide, sprint and jump across a visually stunning & unique world!
Like the crane that soars on the wind, explore a beautiful, cinematic world like never before as you use the power of windwalk to glide across forests, dash across rivers, and jump over mountains. See the world inspired by the distinct visual style of acclaimed artist Hyung Tae Kim as you travel the land.

Avenge the Fallen.
As a promising student of the Hongmoon School, you train your skills in peace. However, when the wicked Jinsoyun arrives to slaughter your fellow students and beloved Master in search for the Twilight’s Edge, your story truly begins. Rise in power, seek vengeance, and stop Jinsoyun’s plan to unleash the forces of the Dark Realm upon the world.

Master the Art of War!
Pick from six classes and battle foes with a fast-paced action-combat system where timing, counters, and combos are the focus. Listen well, although the way of battle is easy to learn, becoming a true master takes practice. Challenge foes in PvP duels, or explore with friends in a variety of Dungeons and hone your combat skills to match your legacy.

[Lothaeryn]

I am really looking forward to this. Love the aesthetics, it's so damn pretty.
That travel system. Hnnnng.


Also bunch of news and images here: http://gamelist.mmosite.com/g/blade-and-soul.shtml

As awesome as walking on walls and flying through the air without effort looks, all i have to ask is this:

How the hell are you going to PvP with this system? Your target is too versatile to hit if they can just wall climb every surface.

No idea. The beta is still Korea-only and I haven't checked out any pvp videos yet.

game is out in korea, and it is in beta in china ( if it hasnt launched already in china aswell)

I've been waiting for this game for a while now! It looks really great. I've been hoping for a good action MMO for a while and since TERA didn't cut it for me, I'm hoping that this will do me well. It has great potential.

gw2s combat is so much better than teras. i don't get how teras combat can be called action when you can't perform most of the skills while running.

Agreed. But I still wouldn't call Guild Wars 2 pure action. It's much more action-based than TERA's, but it's still not quite what I'd consider action. Could not stand the animation locks in TERA though, so I'm really glad this game doesn't seem to have them at all.

To add onto the awesome.

Just furries and lolis. Basic things in ... well ... every MMO?

Anyway, Ncsoft said they have no intention to bring this game to Western audience. This was a few months back.

Prolly they didn't want another Aion.

How are they worse? *looks at long list of weak mmo's.* Really?

[Ratyrel]

The first trailer had me very interested, the second and third have me incredulously rubbing my eyes at all the weirdness I just saw.

*looks at long list of weak mmo's.* hmm yeah, most of em are better than cataclysm, indeed.

Let's not turn this into a game vs. game thread guys.
