NC has opened pre-registrations for its PC MMORPG 'Blade & Soul NEO' in anticipation of its Yulgang collaboration update and the launch of a new Boost Server. This major update, including the collaboration content, will be released on August 19. Users can participate in the pre-registration until midnight on August 18.

NC introduced the Yulgang collaboration, a new class, and new content during a live broadcast held on the 4th. They also revealed information regarding the revamp of the martial arts book system, new growth support, and new reward events. In particular, they are establishing a 'Boost Server,' an event server designed to help new and returning users grow quickly. The Boost Server will support stable character progression and will be operational for six weeks starting August 19.

Users who participate in the pre-registration will receive a limited-edition 'Giyeon-seok' item, which features the appearance of the Eight Great Treasures from Yulgang, as well as a selection box for various costumes. Additionally, an interactive event called 'Yulgang Four-Cut' is being held, where users can complete their own comic strips by filling in speech bubbles. Sharing the completed cuts provides an opportunity to enter a giveaway for various prizes, including Blade & Soul NEO merchandise and gift vouchers.

Various pre-launch events will also be held ahead of this update. In the 'More Suspicious Ritual' event, players can defeat Takmaryeong to obtain collaboration EXP boxes, and through the 'Hot Time Push' event, they can receive essential growth materials after logging in.
