Blade & Soul Revolution, by Netmarble Corp., the open-world mobile RPG, has been slated for a 2021 worldwide release.
The game is directly inspired by the popular Korean PC MMORPG Blade & Soul and is set to bring all the bells and whistles of that title to the portable screen! Netmarble Corp. has said they’re carrying over the high-quality 3D graphics and large-scale content seen within the PC Blade & Soul and will “revamp [it] to perform flawlessly on mobile devices“. After the success of Genshin Impact on mobile devices, anything seems possible.
Blade & Soul Revolution features a gorgeous open world with an Eastern fantasy twist that’s brought to life thanks to the power of the Unreal Engine 4. There are also “massive real-time faction battle[s]“, which sounds very exciting!
The game includes cinematic stories all about revenge based on the Blade & Soul PC game. There are not many details surrounding its story, but it would seem that the original Blade & Soul has a thrilling and engaging narrative that showcases some genuine character depth.
Blade & Soul Revolution is coming out on both the Apple App Store and Google Play and will be a completely free download, although it will include in-app purchases. What that means and how monetization will work, we don’t know, but if this sounds like an intriguing title, then head over to the game’s website that showcases first looks at the story, artwork, and visuals.
