Blade Symphony Free To Play Patch 7
With the new year upon us, it’s time to release a new update to Blade Symphony. Exciting news as the Blade Symphony Stats system is back online, recording data, and re-integrated with the game. You’ll see your global rank and league in-game, in some new areas!
The other major update is that Blade Symphony’s Steam Workshop support is back! The majority of old items should once again work in-game and be visible to other players. We’re still working to clear up any issues that may arise from old, outdated workshop items.
If you're looking for players to duel against, why not try out our new automated Pick-up Duel functionality on our Discord Server!?
