We finally have a date! Blade & Soul's second closed bets test event will start this month on August 29th and last until September 10th (KST Dates)! Like the first closed beta test event, CBT2 will take place in Korea and will only be accepting Korean residents.

So what's new in CBT2?

  • Content and level raised to 37.
  • The Assassin class will be available for play as will the previous 4 classes.
  • The gathering and crafting systems will be available.
  • Multiple new dungeons unlocked.
  • New zone/area available; Grand Desert. (Map)
  • Contested PvP zones will be making its debut.

The Dojo will be covering this closed beta test event for our community as it is not protected by a non-disclosure agreement, or NDA. Our coverage will include a daily livestream, direct translations and more media than you'll know what to do with! Be sure to visit our Beta Discussion forum section to chat about anything CBT2 related.

Strange... I return after a long while, and the day before I come back, the Assassin class is becoming available.

Yuan! This deserves a new video for the Real Assassin Entertainment thread! lol

CBT2 is the final Closed Beta Test before Open Beta Testing.

There wouldn't be any point in releasing a CBT3 when OBT is due for release in the next few months.

man i cant wait to see the live-stream on this one especially the Assassin class finally we get to see more of that. And hopefully they play around more with the custom creation. I would like to see more of variety.



I agree. They will definitely allow for far more diverse character customisation, as NCsoft has done in past games (such as Aion).
Hopefully they will offer this in the CBT2.

For sure.
One of the most important elements to a game for me is that every character looks totally unique.

Yes, I am really holding on to hear that the character customization has been fully opened! But also, I need to know more on the PVP and crafting.

yeeaahh more videos. and live stream :hehe:
but i cant wait to see the Assassin´s in action :love:

xDDD ahhh the announcement of CBT, its like starburst! it's a juicy contradiction. At one moment I can say more info and more videos are medicine to my brain, at the same time I can say the defeat of being sidelined and having to watch others play is like poison xDD

Quickly!! I need more medicine and poison! Let the streaming commence!

But i'm with everyone else, I would love to see more customization, I can openly say that yeah I loved all the gameplay vids posted on youtube, but my favs where the 2-3 videos I found of people showing off the different outfits. Sadly we only saw this for females. would be nice to see A: more outfits this time around and B: outfits for males as well as females =3
