Blade & Soul: Revolution will be heading for iOS and Android on March 4th

Back in January, Netmarble's upcoming RPG, Blade & Soul: Revolution became available to pre-order on both iOS and Android. At the time, the game had an expected release date of 18th March. Today, however, Netmarble has announced it will arrive a little sooner than that on March 4th.

If you're unfamiliar, Blade & Souls: Revolution is an open-world RPG that has seen success in Korea and other Asian territories, even picking up a Google Play award for 'Best Game in Korea'. The game looks to bring the PC game Blade & Soul over to mobile in a way that's suited to handheld devices.

On launch, it will feature five different professions. This will include Blade Master, Destroyer, Kung Fu Masters, Force Master and Summoner. It promises to stay true to its PC heritage with full 3D graphics and large-scale content that has been tweaked to better suit being playing on a touch screen device.

Those who decide to pre-register their interest in the game ahead of launch will be rewarded with 1000 Black Crystals when it arrives. In addition to that, they can expect one premium pet too. This will either be a Lumi for Android users or a Sparkie if iOS is your platform of choice.
