Blade & Soul is coming to consoles, developed in North America

During the Q2 2017 financial reports, NCsoft has revealed that a console version of Blade and Soul is in development. This version – or versions, since the studio didn't specify the consoles, although we're betting PS4 and XBox One – is being developed in North America and will receive the same content as the PC release, which launched in January 2016 in the west.

There's no release date for Blade & Soul console edition – let's call it that for now – but we would aim at mid-2018. NCsoft saw its revenues through the roof thanks to the success of Lineage Mobile, and has other mobile games in development such as Aion Legions and Blade & Soul Mobile. You can see the Q2 2017 financial chart below, and notice how Blade & Soul is still going strong.

Blade & Soul is going through a server merge tomorrow in North America and Europe, but this is said to be due to more and more players reaching endgame content and becoming harder to find raiding groups.
