For the past few months, thousands of players from across the world have immersed themselves in the stunning world of Swords of Legends Online—the AAA massively multiplayer online role-playing game from publisher Gameforge and developers Wangyuan Shengtang & Aurogon. As the community called for more end-game content, Gameforge worked with the developers to ensure players receive plenty of new challenges to enjoy the holidays with.

On November 18, update 1.1: The Forbidden Court will bring tons of new content to the game, in addition to a new chapter in the story progression and unexplored perils. Sparkwood Gardens will be the first of two brand-new raids for 10 to 20 players, featuring challenging bosses along with tons of rewards for players who dare enter. It opens its gates to players on November 25, one week after the initial 1.1 launch.

Shrouded in mystery and located within the Floral Palace and protected by the Soulforce of the Firestone clan, the Sparkwood Gardens await with a host of deformed and mutated creatures that often stray beyond the palace walls to wreak havoc in the surrounding lands. Yet treasure beckons from beyond the Forbidden Court of the Floral Palace…

Meet the Raid Bosses

Jade Blade Mantis

Once a normal praying mantis, after being transformed by Jiang Kanhua and Tao Pianxian she became even stronger and deadlier in her new corrupted form. Equipped with a pair of enormous pincers, and armored with a layer of carapace as beautiful as jade and as hard as steel, she is one of the many dangers lurking within the Sparkwood Gardens.

Shirenchang of the Plant Spirit

She was a shirenchang foolhardy enough to break into the Floral Palace in search of people to eat. But after Jiang Kanhua and Tao Pianxian planted a plant sprite in her body, she was transformed into a creature that combined the worst aspects of plant and human worlds. Innately strong, she was able to withstand the pain as the plant took root in her body and blossomed into one of the greatest horrors prowling the grounds.

Four-Armed Ghoul

One of many unfortunate creatures of its kind, Four-Handed Ghouls are spectral monsters born of the rancor of a thousand dead mortals, fermented over centuries and distilled into an incarnation of destruction. They have little intelligence, but are eager to kill and devour anything that disturbs their slumber.

Ismael

Ismael is the Awakeners’ magistrate, leader of the Yin beasts and a student of the leader Cang Gu. A member of the Bone People, Ismael can see through human emotions and change form according to the victims’ desires, giving him the ability to kill his prey before they even realize they are in danger.

The raid’s normal difficulty will be available after the weekly server maintenance on November 25 and can be accessed by players once a week. Soon players will face their greatest test yet, as Gameforge reveals a massive new raid for legendary heroes to conquer with even more content and in-game events to come in December!
