Are you finished with all of the content that Blade & Soul has to offer, now that you’ve had a few weeks to play since the launch? No? Well, that’s just too bad because NCsoft is throwing even more stuff at you to do with today’s Rising Waters patch. Deal with it.

The content update adds plenty to the core game, starting with the Bloodshade Harbor dungeon. This challenging instance comes in both normal six-player and hard four-player modes. When dusk falls, this dungeon turns into a 24-player raid called Nightshade Harbor.

Rising Waters also contains Mushin’s Tower, a seven-floor dungeon that can be completed solo. Players who are at level 45 can now use earned experience toward new Hongmoon levels that give additional skills and stats.

Update: NCsoft’s latest press release included player numbers:

“NCSOFT has confirmed that Blade & Soul has now surpassed 2 million players in the US and Europe, only three weeks since its official launch.”
