It looks as if Bless Online’s Korean operators are merging servers again, though they’ve opened one too, so the total tally will seemingly hold even. Pmang says that it’s opened a new server, Lumen, and merged the Tania server into it, completely with compensation rewards for those affected.
This won’t mark the first time we’ve seen merges for the Korean-born MMORPG; we reported a round of “server integrations” in both February and June of 2016. The last round brought to the total down from at least 10 to just two, where we apparently still sit — just with a different two.
Over here in the west, we’re still awaiting news from Aeria Games, which is expected to publish the game here later this year, though the release has already been hampered by delays. The studio strongly rejected rumors in December that the game’s launch had been canceled, telling Massively OP that its devs are still “working closely with Neowiz on the gameplay improvement aimed for the North American and European version!”
