After nearly three months of talking up Swords of Legends Online, Gameforge has finally announced the official launch date for the Chinese Xianxia-themed MMORPG. That date is July 9.

“In just a few weeks, players will be able to immerse themselves in the rich, expansive, visually stunning world and delve into the mystical story told through fully voiced cutscenes. Legendary warriors will play as one of six initial classes and embark on incredible quests, join forces with formidable allies to take down challenging foes, and rest their weary heads in a home among the clouds—easily accessible thanks to their trusty flying mounts!”

For those of you who haven’t been following our coverage, Swords of Legends Online is based on the Xianxia genre of Chinese mythology that has inspired novels, movies, TV series, and several video games, including 2019’s Gu Jian Qi Tan Online, which Swords of Legends Online is based on.

“Swords of Legends Online introduces a fully remastered edition of the popular AAA saga to a whole new audience in Europe and the Americas, presented in glorious, high-definition visuals. Following a successful Beta phase where players were able to test the waters, MMO fanatics in North and Latin America and Europe will soon be able to jump into the action themselves and explore a fascinating and strikingly gorgeous world steeped in and inspired by the poetic lore of ancient Chinese culture.”

Of course, Gamefore isn’t in short supply of trailers which means that there’s a new once to accompany the announcement. You’ll find that waiting for you after the break. You can also head over to the Swords of Legends official site for more info.
