G-STAR 2016 Wrap Up

G-STAR 2016 has come and gone and a lot of announcements were made. It's time to put them all in one place so we wrap our heads around them.

Bless Mobile Game Announced At G-STAR 2016

Not exactly one I expected to hear, considering we're still not entirely sure what's happening with Bless. But there ya have it. Bless is getting a mobile title. What is it? We don't know. What will it play like. We don't know. We only know, it is.

New Astellia Details Emerge From G-STAR 2016

Who knew you could combine Astellia coming out, sometime. It's quite nice looking, and refreshing to see someone trying something different. Whether or not Astellia's novelty leads to a success... well we'll just have to wait and see.

WEBZEN Releases G-STAR 2016 Trailers For Azera: Iron Heart And MU Legend

We already know about MU Legend and Azera: Iron heart so these two weren't a surprise, but more details are always nice. The 11 minutes MU Legend video showed off spectacular effects and some interesting dungeon designs—without any of the CBT lag. Whereas Azera: Iron Heart's trailer continues to prove that games can look slick on mobile—at least in a trailer.

War Rage To Launch Internationally Within The Next 18 Months

Medieval MMORPG War Rage is scheduled withing the next almost 2 years. That's quite prudent of them to be able to schedule so far in advance. I'm more surprised to learn the game is an MMORPG. Based on the included trailer I figured it was going to play more as a single-solder in a Total War game. I guess I was wrong.

Moonlight Blade Korea To Have Adolescent Female Customization Options

Oh brother. Moonlight Blade. Why? I don't know if I need to explain that one to you. I'll it the children characters are tastefully designed, but I doubt many children would be able to hold their own in wuxia-style combat. Can't wait to beat up some kids—in the Korean version.

Dragon Nest Is Getting A Scythe-Wielding Dark Sorceress Class

A new class is in the works for Dragon Nest: the Dark Sorceress—a gothic looking, scythe-wielding killer. She looks neat enough. We really don't know anything about the Dark Sorceress beyond the fact that she exists. So I guess we'll just have to wait and see what she's all about.

Tree Of Savior Mobile Remake Gameplay Showcased At G-STAR 2016

We finally got a look at Tree of Savior mobile in smooth FPS action, and man it looks good. And by good I mean nearly exactly the same as the PC version, except for the control scheme. I have high hopes for Tree of Savior mobile. Somehow ToS on mobile feels right. I hope I'm not wrong about that.

Peria Chronicles Footage From G-STAR 2016 Surfaces

And the one game I think more people were hyped for than anything else: Peria Chronicles. We've got a whole bunch of videos. Interestingly enough, combat works by summoning Kirana (think Pokémon) and summoning the right Kirana for the right situation. It's not what we expected. But then again we didn't really know what to expect from Peria Chronicles.
