With more than 17 million players worldwide these new
enhancements should be an instant success. The main feature of the expansion
is a new playable race called the Kamael, one-winged soldiers who control
a form of dark magic and are presented in different class paths based
on gender, with both male and female characters possessing distinct combat
abilities. The ultimate goal of the Kamael warriors, born on the Isle
of Souls, is to earn a second wing and reach the powerful final enhanced
form.
Adding to the intrigue and massive battles Lineage II
is known for are clan-based, daily fortress battles. Smaller in scale
to the enormous castle sieges, the fortress battles will allow smaller
clans to gain a foothold on territory and elevating their clan in the
larger political and military background.
Highlights for veteran players of the game include the
addition of lands for those above level 70, Hellbound and the Isle of
Prayer. Also coming soon, highly requested game features such as character
server transfers, name changes and gender changes will become available
for purchase.
Newer players will enjoy new items and enhancements that
will aid the solo play experience for those at lower levels, helping to
make Lineage II more accessible without diluting the challenge for which
the game is well known.
Additional new features include a set of instanced dungeons
and new item slots and items that include new more powerful weapons and
armour. Instanced dungeons provide players a place where they can hunt
by themselves, untouched by players or creatures. There are two different
kinds of Instanced Dungeons: one that requires a quest to enter, and the
other that requires the acquisition of a castle or fortress to enter.
Also, when players tackle particularly challenging adventures or overcome
monstrous bosses, they can capture the moment on video with the game’s
newly revamped record and replay system that allows players full control
of their footage playback when they view their captured battles.
Existing players of Lineage II will receive
The Kamael update automatically to their accounts. For gamers
wishing to experience Lineage II for the first time, the game
is available at retail at £14.99, which includes a 15
day time card, giving players a total of 45 days play time.
