Latest Elsword News

KOG Games has announced that the latest patch has been deployed to Elsword that brings three brand new Job classes for at least three Paths for every playable character in the game. "Each of the Elsword characters have at least three Job paths. Each of these paths now has three Jobs (like character classes). Choices players make along the Paths determine the lore and how the character plays. This update "represents the doom, gloom and delectably sinister side of these characters".

Elsword is a unique title with its blending of manga and the MMO genre into a seamless (and fun!) game. We had the chance to chat with Director Dong-Shin Lee to learn how developers manage that precarious bridge between two seemingly disparate groups of players.

From the video description from KOG Games: Part 2 of the biggest update of the year is here with an all new vibe, some absolutely amazing, sexy and chic character designs, and some wicked events that are too good to miss! With all that swag, we couldn't help but change things up a bit...Watch and listen!"

Tomorrow is a huge day for Elsword with its biggest update of 2017 and the first of three massive updates coming soon. Every Elsword character is getting a 3rd Job class for each Job path. That means 37 new Job classes in total. This is the first update that that adds the 3rd Job for the first Job line for each character>

From now through December 19th, Elsword players can take part in a special event to prepare their characters for the imminent arrival of the 3rd Job for each. During the event, players from levels 15-98 will only need half experience to reach the next level. In addition, weapons will be enhanced. It's prudent to choose which characters wisely, however, since only two characters (new or existing) can be used during the event. 3rd Jobs are set to launch on December 20th.

Elsword players can now challenge their fears by entering the non-combat oriented Spooky Graveyard event dungeon from today through October 31st. Players collect Rusty Cemetery Keys throughout the game world that are used to open the gates. While there, players work their way through zombies, mummies and ghosts on the way to find and defeat the vengeful hedgehog ghost creating havoc. Doing so rewards Ghost's Trace that can be exchanged for prizes.

KOG Games is unleashing a brand new video series called the Elsword Insider. In this first volume, team members talk about content changes and what direction the game will move in over the coming months.

Deep beneath the legendary capital city that had risen from the haze of an era long forgotten, a laboratory, constructed by the ancient Debrian race has been discovered. With unparalleled mastery over the power of the El, it was thought that the Debrians had been researching prominence; the epitome of technical greatness. Though true, their research was far from "greatness".

Elsword has been updated with the Elrianode content expansion, a continuation of the game's heroic story. The update brings the Elrian land into the game that begins with the Dungeon Elrianode. This is the first in a series of updates that continue to expand the game's world, lore and the dungeon-crawling experience.

Elsword, despite being one of the most played Anime MMOs on the market, is still kind of an unknown around these parts. We caught up with KOG Studios out in sunny California to chat about the action MMORPG and what it's all about. Read on!
