NC America has released a roadmap for newly released Blade & Soul NEO, which includes details on the next update, coming on March 11th.
That first update will hit on that date, and will be the launch of Moonwater Plains – Part 1. The team says: “Featuring an even balance of PvE and PvP content – new story quests and regions, battlegrounds, maps, dungeons, and healthy rewards – the post-launch schedule begins with the Moonwater Plains – Part 1 expansion and delivers updates in April, May, and into summer.”
Blade & Soul NEO: Moonwater Plains – Part 1
The Moonwater Plains – Part 1 expansion features a level cap increase to 50, a new region and storyline, Moonwater Plains, that takes place in Act 3 of the Epic Quest. Explore the conflict between Talus Dominion and Skyhaven Resistance and learn more about the origin of the Lyn race in this continuation of the story.
Players also will see combat in the new heroic dungeon, Blackram Supply Chain, featuring new Accessories, Poharan’s Soul Core and Skill Books as the main rewards. In Mushin’s Tower, PvE players will enjoy solo PvE content: They’ll challenge the boss “Junghado” to conquer the top floor, and then obtain Mushin’s Tower Emblem, to earn a variety of rewards.
For PvP players, the battleground Beluga Lagoon is a 6v6 PvP instance challenging players to meet one of three conditions to win 1) Place the Horns on all three Ally Stone Statues; be the first to reach 1,800 Points; or have a higher score than the opposing team by the end of 15 minutes. Last, Skyhaven Bastion is a free-for-all PvP combat zone, with prestige points earned by defeating monsters within the field, or stolen from other players.
We’ve also got the longer term roadmap, below.

Slated for April, the second big update, Update 2: Moonwater Plains – Part 2, spotlights the frigid floors of Blackram’s Cold Storage, centered around the challenging Winter Mane, Kaari Lord, as well as Bloodshade Harbor, the main port of the Eastern Blackram Fleet where players will face Admiral Hae Mujin.
Update 3: Moonwater Plains – Part 3 is scheduled for May and will feature Highland Necropolis and Naryu Labyrinth. Players can look forward to the new class, “Warlock” and the new region, Silverfrost Mountains, through the summer. NC America will continue updating Blade & Soul NEO throughout 2025.
