The free-to-play martial arts MMO Swordsman Online is set to receive an increase in the level cap and new instances by the end of the year. The release was only a few days ago.
In an interview with mmogames.com, Gabrielle “Gabe” Helland, the product manager of Swordsman, discussed the plans for the free-to-play MMO. The aim is to populate the cash shop cautiously since Swordsman is a skill-based game. Therefore, the shop will mainly feature cosmetic items or mounts that help players stand out from the crowd. Additionally, there are some items that ease gameplay, such as XP bonuses or energy pills. Everything that influences the combat power of characters can, however, be found in the game or acquired from other players.
Looking ahead, plans include several events such as live streams or dungeon runs together with the players. The arena is also suited for holding PvP tournaments. Furthermore, attentive players on social media can expect gifts and prizes.
By the end of the year, Helland stated, they aim to raise the level cap; bring new instances and a fresh endgame raid to Swordsman Online and improve numerous key systems within the game.
