NCSoft has announced that Blade & Soul will be updated on October 18th. The update is called Rage of the Hive Queen and will include the Temple of Eluvium where players will face off against Zulia herself as the Queen of the Hive. In addition, the Aransu School will be part of the update, a newly corrupted location where players will need to take on the guardians and the Vileblood Thrall.
From October 18th to November 8th, players will be treated to a holiday extravaganza called Blade & Ghoul 2017 that will feature the Merchant of Wonders.
