This summer, the MMORPG Knight Online will see several exciting improvements and promotions for the game including exclusive boosts for new accounts, GM Wars, a new Moradon patch and new anti-cheating policies.

To thank players for choosing Knight Online and making it so incredibly popular, the game team is giving experience boosts to new accounts. To show appreciation to the existing community, while also welcoming many new players from around the world with something very special, starting today, for all NEW ACCOUNTS (created from July 3rd --after maintenance-- to July 31st --before maintenance), a present will be waiting in mailboxes when players log into Knight Online.

A stack of experience boosting scrolls will give Knights a maximum of 10 hours of +70% boosted experience to help them get to those Lunar Wars and other events quickly! (The scrolls are neither tradable nor sellable, and any unused scrolls will be deleted from all characters’ inventory after July 31st. The scrolls are only able to be used from levels 1-50 and will only be available on newly created accounts. Once the letter is accepted on a server with a character, the scrolls are bound to that server and character.)

Think you have what it takes to defeat a GM in battle? How about multiple GM's backed by an army of enemies? Imagine up to four GM's per nation on the battlefield leading the charge, challenging players to battlekilling a GM. A summer of destiny will call upon all Knights to face these invading GM's in combat and see who is left standing at the end of it all. The wars are due this summer with specific dates to be announced in the near future on the website.

Moradon Castle, the starter area for both races in the game, has been rebuilt and the new version will soon be released with a major upcoming patch to the game. The hunting areas will be increased dramatically, and the new castle itself will be massive compared to the current one. Players will discover a lot more space in which to merchant, purchase items and meet fellow Knights. There have also been rumors about some sort of targeting dummy feature, though details have yet to be released on that. Keep an eye out for the launch date on the official Knight Online website.

While GMs are ready to war for fun with honest Knight Online players, they are not going to tolerate cheaters and have been aggressively fighting them. Due to newly implemented methods and tools for catching cheaters, cheating is at an all-time low in the game. The Knight Online Team promises to regularly release patches and develop new and more efficient methods of catching and punishing those players that don't play according to the rules.
