Blade & Soul Neo character creation event kicks off on February 18th, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. PST, ahead of the global launch on February 25th. This guide covers everything you need to know to make the most of it—securing your name, choosing a server, and crafting your perfect character.

Blade & Soul Neo character creation Event Basics

Launch date: 18 February 2025, 9:00am PST.Purpose: Reserve your character name and customize your look before servers go live.Limit: One character per account during the event - choose wisely!

Securing Your Name

Rules: Names must be at least three English characters (e.g. "BNS"). One space is allowed (e.g. "BNS Neo").Strategy: Have backup names ready. Popular names will run out quickly, especially on high-traffic servers.Pro tip: Start brainstorming now—your name sticks with you across Neo’s journey.

Server Selection

Four servers will be available, divided by region:

BNS NEO North America Server:

Heaven's Reach: Likely the most popular due to its ties to later-game content. Expect a large crowd.Viridian Coast: A quieter option for a less hectic start.

BNS NEO Europe Server:

Moonwater Plains: The go-to for population, tied to a key game area. Recommended for active play.Cinderlands: Less crowded, ideal for a chill experience.Why It Matters: Dungeons are cross-server, but raids are server-specific. Coordinate with friends or your raid group to pick the same server - raiding with random players isn't an option.

Race and Class Options

Classes are race-locked, not gender-locked, giving you flexibility within limits:Jin: Blade Master, Kung Fu Master, Assassin.Gon (Tall): Kung Fu Master, Force Master, Destroyer.Lyn (Short): Force Master, Assassin, Summoner, Blade Dancer (Lyn exclusive).Yun (Normal): Blade Master, Kung Fu Master, Force Master.Note: Blade Dancer and Summoner are Lyn-only - plan your race if these are your choices.

Character customisation

Neo’s creation system is deep and detailed:Complexity: Tons of options for hair, face, body and more - take your time to experiment.Import Trick: Create a character in the live Blade & Soul game now, save it via “Manage Appearance” (found in Pictures > BNS Character Customization), and import the file into Neo. This will save you time and lock in your look early on.Action Step: Download the live game as soon as possible, create your ideal character and save the file before 18 February.

Why It’s Worth It
