Originally released in China, the mobile MMORPG Soul Land quickly went on to gather a decent amount of popularity, attracting more than 100 million players. This success in turn brought it to the attention of the gamer community around the world, eventually prompting the developer to promise that it’ll make a global version of the game. Now, it seems that we’ll be seeing this promise fulfilled really soon as Soul Land has just been confirmed for a global release this month. Check out its trailer below:
For those who don’t know, the story of Soul Land is based on a popular novel in China. It is set in a world in which each individual possesses a power called ‘WarSoul’. This WarSoul can take on multiple forms, from inanimate objects to plants to animals or even mythical beings such as angels. However, it is only awakened when one turns 6 years old. In the game, players will become Magisters, people who have the power to utilize their WarSouls in combat.
The gameplay, meanwhile, includes all the usual MMORPG stuff such as character customization, Boss battles, gear crafting, and more. Several social features are present, allowing players to befriend one another or even find a love interest.
Soul Land is currently up for pre-registration on both Google Play and the App Store. Naturally, those who participate will receive some exclusive in0game rewards once it officially launches. There is also a lottery event going on as well with prizes including a Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and 100 Google Play/App Store Gift Cards. All you have to do to get a chance of winning those things is to pre-register for Soul Land and then follow its Facebook/Twitter page.
Soul Land is set to launch this month in North America, Europe, South Korea, and Japan. There is no information on when it’ll come to other parts of the world at the moment, so stay tuned!
