Blade And Soul Rage Of The Hive Queen Update Goes Live On October 18

blade and soul hive queenIt’s been a few weeks since we’ve heard news from Blade and Soul. Turns out, the devs have been hard at work on a new patch called Rage of the Hive Queen which will be making its way into the game on October 18th. The patch will introduce a new Temple of Eluvium raid boss and new Fallen Aransu School quests.

“Zulia has sought refuge deep within the mysterious inner chambers of the Temple of Eluvium; and you’ll need to follow her. Lost in her rage and fear, Zulia has no desire to be found, and has turned the Temple’s preternatural guardians against any who dare enter. Should you manage to survive the onslaught of the giant Augerites, powerful fiends, and twisted harpies, you’ll need to face Zulia herself—as the newly crowned Queen of the Hive.”

October 18 will also mark the start of the Blade & Ghoul Halloween event which promises Ghoulish Gift Boxes, Creepy Candy Consumables, and the return of Shin Baeyun, the Merchant of Wonders who’ll be offering players the chance to purchase Halloween-themed cosmetics.
