The fantasy game based on Asian martial arts has gained much attention as it is the official sequel to the highly popular "Blade & Soul" released in 2012.ĭespite the high expectations, NCSOFT came under heavy criticism shortly after the sequel's release because the company prevented users from acquiring in-game items tradable between players unless they purchase what it calls a "Season Pass." The company, best known for its "Lineage" RPG franchise, officially began service for "Blade & Soul 2" on Aug.


Korean game company NCSOFT has vowed to offer more user-friendly services for its newly released "Blade & Soul 2," after a number of gamers criticized the excessively high, pay-to-win billing system of the role-playing game (RPG).
