A whole new legend is in the making. Lineage 2M brings brilliant graphics, minimal loading time and fantastically immersive battles to the MMORPG genre.

Lineage 2M has raised the ceiling for graphic standards and brought an unprecedented degree of visual excellence to the game. Places from the Lineage universe, such as Talking Island and the Giran Territory, are brought to life in exquisite detail.

Your character’s race, class and occupation will alter their appearance in detailed ways and bring them to life. Every texture from head to toe is meticulously rendered. The races feel distinct, while class characteristics also affect appearance, so you can truly create a unique character. For example, the dark elf blade dancer emanates frigidity, while the human magician glows with intelligence.

Making a return from other Lineage games are the monsters and mobs you’ll come up against. With visually splendid energy-charged swords and magic, Lineage 2M adds a new thrill to battling old enemies.

Rich visual effects often come at the price of a long loading screen. You’ll be pleasantly surprised to find that in Lineage 2M, there’s no load-screen between scenes or areas. Once you’re connected to a server, roving from field to field is as seamless and natural as moving through the real world. And veterans of the MMORPG genre will love the instant teleportation as a way to travel.

Arriving on the field via teleportation demonstrates just how smooth loading is. Even when you’re astride your mount, the field comes quickly into focus with generous detail to be explored on wyvern-back.

In most RPGs, you’re stuck with the class you chose at the beginning of the game. Lineage 2M frees you from this restriction and lets you change your class at any point. For example, you can start your adventure as a dual-wielding warrior, but decide to become a knight later on. You can also level up within a class to unlock a cooler appearance as well as class-related stats boosts.

The Lineage universe emphasises the characteristics of each race to make them feel distinct, and also determines the classes available to them. For example, the aggressive, warlike Orc can choose to be a knight based on their outstanding strength stats, but cannot choose to be a warrior who wields dual swords.

To become the most powerful hero with the strongest alliances, you’ll need to be well-equipped with the best armour and weapons you can get. However, when you upgrade or add enhancements to a valuable item, there’s a chance that the item will be destroyed. For a risk-free way to reap those rewards, head over to the exchange for a more traditional means of procuring higher-quality equipment.

Great adventures beckon in Lineage 2M, will you heed the call?
