The best online games. Blade and Soul - the long-awaited appearance in Russia Blade and soul where to play

Blade and Soul is one of the most popular Korean games of recent times, even despite the fact that in Russia, for example, its PTA has only recently begun. Creators Blade and Soul is an NCSoft company that has become the author of such games as and constantly improves the game and creates new servers around the world so that all gamers can appreciate the beauty and attractiveness of the game.

Official Russian server Blade and Soul

The closed beta test for players from Russia began at the end of March 2016, and, according to the developers' expectations, it will last a month. Official website of the server - https://ru.4game.com/

There you can also pre-order the game, which is available in four versions. What is the difference between them and how much they cost can be seen on the site itself or on the video:

European server Blade and Soul

The game was released in Europe in January 2016. European servers turned out to be quite efficient not only for Europeans, but also for gamers from the CIS countries who have learned how to bypass IP blocking. Download game with choice European server Blade and Soul is available on the website http://www.bladeandsoul.com/

American server

The publication american server took place at the same time as the exit of the European. Moreover, the site http://www.bladeandsoul.com/ covers the entire English-speaking audience in both Europe and America.

Korean server Blade and Soul

Since Blade and Soul is a Korean game, the first servers that appeared were Korean, the link to the official website of the Korean version of the game is http://bns.plaync.com/ The servers are Pay to play, the release of which took place on June 30, 2012. You can also download the client and register an account there on the site. Korean client installation video:

Chinese server Blade and Soul

Blade and Soul official Japanese server

Another eastern server was the Japanese server, the release of the game on which took place on May 20, 2014. Link to the official site - http://bns.qq.com/. there you can download the launcher and register.

Unofficial servers

There are also unofficial servers for the game, among the Russian-speaking population the http://playbns.com/ server is popular, and among the English-speaking population - http://bns.atomixro.com/index.php - a fairly advanced server, among the free ones.
Important to remember!
In order to play on any servers, registration and authorization of an account on the respective sites is required. It is also desirable to download launchers and clients from there.

Many people think that they have studied the game and prepared for the upcoming release of the official server, but this is far from the case, and today we will try to figure out what differences between a pirate server and a ruoff.

Why is Ruoff Blade and Soul better than Pirates?

1) Many races, unlike pirates, have added the ability to take other classes that were previously unavailable. For example, magicians will be available on the office race, but not on a pirate.
2) Customization has been significantly expanded, both new hairstyles and, for example, ears and tails for lins have been added. This brings much more variety to the game than on the same pirate.
3) In the game, the interface has undergone significant changes and has become more pleasing to the eye.
4) The version of skills is simply incredibly different from the pirate, to the point that many classes have new skills. Now the classes familiar to everyone from pirates will have to be re-learned.
5) Added daily roulette, which can be twisted several times a day, taking out various buns. The roulette itself is updated over time, which means that the prizes will always be different.
6) Keys, amulets and hammers on offs will not have a level division. Their main difference will be the division into ordinary keys, hammers that can be transferred, and things of the hon path, personal for everyone.
7) Banks and food also do not have a separation. Now banks restore not a specific amount of hp, but a percentage of everything, for example, 50% of all hp.
8) Achievement system has been implemented on ruoff, for which we can get not only a beautiful title, but also various character stats, and even a legendary skill. Many will consider this a minus, while the other half will be happy to complete the task and explore the world of Blade and Soul, trying to get another achievement.
9) Simplified morph system. Now all resources for the initial morph are given as you progress through the story quests. Not to mention that fluff does not need to be sharpened to the maximum in order to make another breakthrough. This saves both money and time.
10) The balancing arena on the pirate is implemented extremely crookedly, on the ruoff it is done as it should: your equipment, sharpening, gems And so on. Only your build and skill decides, since the stats of the characters are equalized.
11) There will be more complex and thick bosses on the ruoff, the skills of the bosses themselves have not changed, but the number of their hp has increased.
12) Guilds. Unlike pirates, the guild level provides not only an increase in slots for gi members, but also various privileges per level. In addition, the craft of combat schools has appeared, from which you can get a lot of usefulness, up to legendary skills.
13) Chelmu weapon crafting. On the pirate is absent as such. Chulmu weapons have the highest stats compared to their counterparts, plus, well, a very tasty buff on crit and Chi regen. In addition, Chulmu's weapons can also be morphed and upgraded.
14) Unlike pirates, costumes will drop forever, not for 7/14/30 days. Even the ones you take out of your pockets will last forever.
15) Morph in inventory. Now we can craft several types of pockets and sharpening for weapons and jewelry. An event morph has also been added here.
16) Wheels of Fortune. Unlike the pirate, the animation of the wheel of fortune has been significantly reduced. Of course, this will not save you from queues, but it will significantly reduce the waiting time. In addition, above the wheel is now shown what type of essence it requires.
17) Simplification of quests in dungeons Po24 and Grandfather. The bottom line is that the number of required named bosses has been reduced on the off. We will only need to kill 1 of them instead of waiting for them all to respawn, which speeds up the dailies a lot.
18) Tablets. Many sets of tablets have been reworked, which means that the usual stats from a pirate woman are missing.
19) Changing the appearance of weapons (a controversial plus, but worth mentioning). Now we can give top weapons appearance any other that we like, of course paying a little money. Aesthetes will find this feature very attractive.
20) Unlike a pirate, there is no hassle with farming Naryu coins and knocking out gold coins in order to get to your grandfather. They simply do not exist on the office.
21) Of course, updates. On a pirate you won’t wait for them, Inova plans to catch up with the Korean version in six months, which means constant frequent updates and new content. A significant plus in favor of localization.
22) Translation. The translation itself on a pirate is made according to the principle “we throw it into Google translator - we insert it into the game - what is not translated, we leave it in the original - let the players figure it out themselves”. The localization of the game means the absence of discomfort when reading both quests and dialogues in story cutscenes, not to mention understanding what needs to be done in a particular quest.

Blade & Soul is one of the hottest Korean online games 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 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 good plot with many beautiful videos 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. Game client 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 find system requirements games, 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, official servers 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 thing - 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, on this moment it is known that the Russian version will be launched from one of latest versions client, and the transition to newer versions will depend entirely on the activity of the players (the speed of familiarization of the bulk of the 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 the Chinese servers, I can’t say that I met such dynamic battles, beautiful graphics, 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:
