Blade & Soul Finally Launching On January 19th

After extensive testing Blade and Soul will finally be launching in NA and Europe on January 19, 2015 beginning at 12AM EST/ 9PM PST—it looks like I'll have at least one birthday gift guaranteed this year. Impatient players can still purchase a Founder's Pack and access the game's world starting January 15th. Higher-tier Founder's Packs will enable players to reserve their name on January 11th (who's going to take gUMBLE from me?).

Blade and Soul's max level will be 45, feature 1v1 arena, and two dungeons which have not been available to Closed Beta testers (Blackram Supply Chain and E. Fleet Supply Chain). Additional content, such as Hongmoon levels, is planned post release but there is little information available as to the future update schedule. I'll be there Day 1 testing out the game's features.
