KOG Games, a leading developer and publisher of popular free-to-play action MMORPGs, today announces the launch of the highly anticipated Elsword: Season 2 Update. Only 2 weeks into December…players can already experience some MASSIVE updates to the game throughout the winter season and beyond! View and hear the updates here:
See below for the full scoop on Elsword: Season 2!
Elsword and Rena… a Renovation…
From the visual appearance of Elsword or Rena as they appear onscreen, to completely revamping their attack animations, balance and feel….a change has occurred. Changes improve controls and the overall player experience when using these two characters, and so much more.
Exclusive, New English Voices – As Season 2 rolls out, Elsword players will notice one major difference: Elsword and Rena have a whole lot to say… in English! The world renowned Cristina Vee (Bleach, Sword Art Online) and Nicolas Roye (Naruto, Digimon) lend their amazing voices to immerse players and allow them to truly play their Manga, and this is only the beginning. The entire cast of Elsword, NPC’s too, are auditioning for their new roles! (hint: stay tuned!)
Skill trees have been streamlined – Apart from the UI changes presented in the new Skill Tree, skills you can learn are now sorted into the respective skills’ level requirement. Players can now choose from two Traits for each active skill. These Traits enhance and refine skills to cater to a player’s individual play style
Skill Designs and Rebalance – Players will notice that some of their old skills now look absolutely brilliant. Rena’s arrows, volleys and new skills look epic, and Elsword’s attack animations, combos and explosive new casts are gigantic and brilliant. Every improvement made, with the logic in mind, of bringing the lesser used Characters and Jobs up to par with those that seem more powerful. Play who you want vs who you think you should!
Attack/Command Skill Update – The attack commands have been updated to offer a whole new play style. Some of the tired, less used attack combos have been updated to offer players a whole new element of play, and the UI has been updated to make these combo elements easier to access.
The all new Elsword and Rena only Tournament! – So, Elsword and Rena are being Reborn in true Season 2 fashion so let’s test every refinement with a smidge of hardcore PvP… Tournament style! This Friday, some of the biggest names in Elsword PvP will face off! 32 teams of 2 will throw blows using only one Rena and one Elsword per team. The final matches will be Livestreamed on Saturday here: http://www.twitch.tv/elsword
