B&S NEO is a modern interpretation of the original that looks to give players the opportunity to re-live the original MMO storyline as a hero determined to restore honor to their clan. To do so, you join the Hongmoon Clan, led by Master Hong, only to witness its sudden destruction by the villainess Jinsoyun and her accomplices, Yura and Gubong. Left to die, you will begin their journey of discovery, intrigue, and adventure, solo or with friends.
You’ll be able to pick from four playable races based on animal lore:
- Jin
- Gon
- Lyn
- Yun
After you pick your race, you’ll also have the ability to pick from seven classes:
- Assassin,
- Blade Dancer
- Blade Master
