Pre-Registration Still Available

While the release has been pushed back, pre-registration remains open for both iOS and Android via the App Store and Google Play, as well as for PC via Steam and Purple. In Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, the game—also known as Blade & Soul Hoyeon (호연)—is expected to roll out in late 2024.

Gameplay: Action Meets Strategy

An 8-minute gameplay trailer highlights Blade & Soul Heroes’ mix of real-time action and strategic turn-based battles. Players can dodge, unleash flashy combos, and finish enemies with cinematic skills. Boss battles and PvP modes shift into a tactical format, requiring careful strategy instead of pure reflexes.

The game emphasizes character collection and party building, letting players form squads of up to five heroes, each with unique abilities. Unlike many RPGs, Blade & Soul Heroes avoids full auto-combat, giving players direct control in battles.

About Blade & Soul Heroes

Set three years before the events of the original Blade & Soul, this spinoff RPG blends the iconic IP with cartoon-style graphics and new characters. Players can explore vibrant environments, recruit allies, and relive a prequel story while enjoying both strategic planning and hands-on action.
