Today on IGN Live, we delved into the realm of Blade and Soul Heroes, a riveting free-to-play collectible action MMO RPG that promises an adrenaline-fueled experience like no other. In this game, players assemble teams of five formidable heroes to engage in epic battles that seamlessly blend real-time and turn-based combat. A symphony of strategy unfolds as each hero brings a unique set of skills to the table, from healing and buffing to tanking and ranged attacks.
As our experts Nico Coutants and Andrew Gant revealed, Blade and Soul Heroes boasts a diverse roster of 40 characters, including familiar faces from the original game and brand-new additions that add a fresh layer of excitement. The game's turn-based mode, while optional, offers a refreshing twist to the gameplay dynamics, allowing players to adapt their strategies and conquer challenges in new and exhilarating ways. PvP enthusiasts will find themselves immersed in intense turn-based battles, with rankings adding a competitive edge to the mix.
Beyond the battlefield, Blade and Soul Heroes unveils a captivating open world divided into zones teeming with activities, from gripping missions and daily quests to heart-pounding raids and encounters with formidable field bosses. The game's rich narrative, serving as a prequel to the beloved Blade and Soul series, offers players a chance to delve deeper into the lore and unravel the backstory of iconic characters. With a September launch on the horizon, players can look forward to experiencing this thrilling adventure on Steam, Purple launcher, and mobile platforms, all with the added bonus of crossplay and cross-platform functionality.
