BluePotion Games has kicked off pre-registration for the '2026 Welcome Back Black' update and announced the opening of 'Sambak 4', a server with restricted monetization for their mobile MMORPG, EOS Black. This campaign is squarely aimed at helping fresh faces and returning veterans get settled, alongside a healthy dose of new content.

The headline act here is the arrival of the 'Sambak 4' server, which continues the series' signature approach to keeping monetization in check. Players joining this new realm will enjoy a 100% experience boost and a suite of launch coupons. Rewards include a guaranteed Legendary Familiar summon, increased special odds, ultra-premium and premium Soul, Familiar, and Divine Beast summons, Soul Stones, Relic Accessories, Rare-grade gear, top-tier Unidentified Monster Tokens, Hero-grade Awakening Scrolls, a 100 million gold chest, and various growth potions. A monthly growth support push event is also on the cards for 'Sambak 4', with the server doors swinging open on February 26.

Running in parallel is the '2026 Welcome Back Black' pre-registration event. It is clearly designed to grease the wheels for returning players, offering significantly beefed-up rewards to make the transition back into the game as smooth as possible. Those who sign up will receive a '2026 Welcome Back Restoration Ticket Chest', granting restoration tickets for weapons, armor, accessories, and relics, along with re-synthesis tickets for Souls, Familiars, and Divine Beasts, plus shiny weapon and armor enhancement request forms. Notably, players will get three armor and three accessory restoration tickets each.

Furthermore, the '2026 Welcome Back Settlement Support Chest' is packed with goodies including ultra-premium and premium Soul, Familiar, and Divine Beast Hero-grade summoning tickets, Monster Tokens, experience buff potions, Hero-grade Soul Stone selection chests, Gem selection chests, enhancement request forms, and a cool 200 million gold. Veterans on existing servers aren't left in the cold, as they can snag an 'EOS Black Welcome Back Mythic Coupon' for a shot at Mythic-grade Souls, Familiars, and Divine Beasts. As for the update itself, look out for the new 7th and 8th floors of the Tower of Silence, various quality-of-life tweaks, new Souls, and the addition of shared Legendary skills.

A spokesperson for BluePotion Games stated, "Through the Sambak 4 server and the 2026 Welcome Back Black event, we aim to provide an environment where both new and returning players can settle in comfortably. We remain committed to strengthening the fun of EOS Black through consistent content updates and improvements."
