NCSoft bringing MMO Blade & Soul west this winter

NCSoft has revealed its MMORPG Blade & Soul is heading west, with a release planned for North America and Europe later this year.

Siliconera reports the confirmation for a western arrival of the title comes three years after it was initially announced by the publisher. NCSoft is currently allowing fans to sign up for the closed beta planned for western regions this fall.

Blade & Soul launched in 2012 throughout multiple territories in Asia, and is described as a martial arts RPG that features action-based combat.

The game will land sometime in the winter, and will be fully localized into English, German and French – including voice-over work for each language.
