MU Legend to Get New Spellbinder Class in March
-
WEBZEN has announced that the new Spellbinder class for its ARPG MU Legend will arrive in March, 2018.
The Spellbinder is a support mage that employs psychic power to strike foes with levitating swords and throwing weapons. Using wide-area crowd control to confuse enemies and help allies, she plays an important role in parties, while powerful direct hits mean she is also highly capable in 1v1 battles. With strong mid-range attacks and mind-control spells in her arsenal, MU Legend's newest class brings a unique skill set that will complement those of the existing characters.
The 5th addition to the line-up of classes, the Spellbinder will be the 1st new character to arrive since MU Legend went live in November last year. For a sneak peek at the Spellbinder, a new teaser video is also now available on the official Webzen YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/asm_RJQQ2Dk
Development for the new content is progressing according to schedule and the update is on track for release next month. While preparations continue, the MU Legend team will be releasing a developer's note with more details on the Spellbinder in the coming weeks. The note will showcase some of the concept artwork for the new class, outlining the creative approach to the character design, and will be available on the official MU Legend website.
Meanwhile, MU Legend's Faction War PvP feature has been attracting thousands of players every weekend since its release on 9 January. The development team has been listening to feedback from players and has implemented several gameplay improvements, with more on the horizon. Patch notes have been made available to players who wish to view the adjustments made.
To stay up to date with all things MU Legend and to catch the upcoming developer's note for the Spellbinder, interested players can stay tuned to the official website: http://mulegend.webzen.com/en
