Blade & Soul is one of the hottest Korean online games in recent years. It was developed by a division of NCSoft called Team Bloodlust, the same one that previously released Lineage 2 and Aion. It is curious that the developers did not begin to make another MMORPG according to the classical scheme: Blade & Soul is more like a multiplayer action game with a dynamic combat system, without the usual “tanks” and “healers”. The game also boasts a good storyline with many beautiful cutscenes and stylish graphics.
For unknown reasons, Russian publishers are ignoring Blade & Soul so far - no company has officially announced plans to release the game on the Russian market so far. Therefore, fans of Korean online games have to look for roundabout ways to get into Blade & Soul. So, some of our compatriots play on Japanese servers (the easiest way to register there). Another group of fans teamed up and created an unofficial Russian-language game server -.
I must say that PlayBNS has a very high quality for freebies. The server works stably, it has a small ping and a minimum of accessibility problems. The game client is translated into Russian by about 98%, and with a fairly high quality - there are problems only with understanding some plot points and terms. By the way, the translation is regularly updated. The server is free, but it has a game store for those who want to upgrade their hero faster or buy him some rare items.
But, despite all the qualities, before deciding to play on PlayBNS, clearly understand that we are talking about playing on an unofficial server with all the possible consequences. The server can be closed by the copyright holder at any time, and it is also possible that the server team will get bored with everything and abandon their work.
Where to download Blade & Soul and how to start playing on a Russian server
It is quite easy to start playing on PlayBNS. First, download the client using the torrent available at . If there are problems with the torrent, then you can use the alternative options: or. Then install the client and wait for the program to update the game to the latest version. If there are any problems with the update, then download the PlayBNS Updater, which is available at . There you can also get acquainted with the system requirements of the game, as well as download additional files (video card drivers, DirectX, Visual C ++ components) that you may need to install and run Blade & Soul.
Having installed the client, we head to where we go through a simple registration procedure. That's all - use the data entered during registration when entering the game client, and go to the world of Blade & Soul.
Good afternoon, dear reader. With you Mi Liner and today to your attention information about the impressive MMORPG, the official servers of which will finally appear on the territory of Russia, Georgia, Ukraine and the CIS countries, namely, about Blade & Soul!
So let's get started. The most important - the release of the game is scheduled for mid-spring, and if in more detail, then in 1-2 weeks after the closed beta test (yes, there will be no open beta test on Russian servers), which will take place in the interval of March 15-31. I will provide more details later, as soon as it becomes available. And another important fact: game servers will be located in Moscow.
The localizers explained the delay in the launch of Russian-language servers by the fact that there were long negotiations with the developers about the quality of the game, which they would like to achieve in Russia.
Next, the game will be released under the economic model with a premium subscription. This means that anyone can play it. absolutely free, and, I hasten to reassure you, there will not be any items in the game store that cause imbalance in the game. Basically, donations will provide aesthetic goods (clothes, jewelry) and consumables. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, the localization of the game is handled by none other than everyone knows 4game.
In addition, at the moment it is known that the Russian version will be launched with one of the latest versions of the client, and the transition to newer versions will depend entirely on the activity of the players (the speed of familiarization of the majority with game content). It is planned to launch a client with content up to the locations of the White Mountains, with a maximum level of 45 players and 7 classes. After the launch, the gap between Russian servers and Korean localizers is planned to be reduced to several months.
For lovers of busty painted aunts, I can inform you that there will be no censorship on ru servers!
Well, on my own I would like to add that the game is really worthwhile, all connoisseurs of the genre are simply obliged to play it. After I got acquainted with it on Chinese servers, I can’t say that I have seen such dynamic battles, beautiful graphics, and an interesting plot in other games of the genre.
Here are a couple of screenshots to give you at least a glimpse of the beauty of this game:
Thank you all for your attention, see you soon!

Internal game errors on Atomix server
The character is stuck in textures or stuck in the air/can't move/something like that.
- In an already running blade and soul game, press the Esc key and select the menu item 1:1 - Cannot move - Move now, or when re-entering the game with a problem character, try pressing the jump key - SPACE.
During the passage of the quest, I accidentally overtook the quest NPC, and then nothing happens.
Atomix is a very crooked server, so just don't overtake the NPCs. There is still a chance that the bug will disappear if you return to the starting place of the quest. The NPC should return after a while to the starting point.
I can't complete the quest at level 15 that unlocks the skill tree
Only 15 levels are implemented on the Atomix server. Further implementation is not foreseen in the future, as the main implementer Atomix has left the project and is no longer involved in the server. The server has not been updated for almost a year.
Can't complete Destroyer class starter quests
This class is not implemented on the Atomix server. Implementation is not expected.
Is it possible to insert power-up stones into weapons?
– It is not allowed on Atomix-e server! Implementation is not expected.
