A new trailer has been released on the American website for Blade & Soul revealing four playable races. The game is being developed by NCSoft, well known for its previous games, Lineage II, City of Heroes, Guild Wars, and more recently, Aion: The Tower of Eternity. Blade & Soul is shaping into a promising new MMORPG, with gorgeous graphics utilizing the Unreal Engine 3. On top of that, character designs are being provided by famed Korean artist, Hyung-tae Kim best known for his art in the Magna Carta video game series. The developers have promised a faster action gameplay in comparison to current MMOs available on the market. They also noted that Capcom's Devil May Cry series inspired some of the gameplay. Unfortunately we will have to wait until 2011 when the game is currently set to be commercialized along with Guild Wars 2; however, NCsoft is planning some beta testing next year (2010.) We'll keep you up to date as new development release, until then check out the video inside.
