THIS JUST IN! Additional info... Went looking on Korean sites for this.
Level cap: 60
Characters won't be deleted after beta
Length of the beta is undetermined
You can create 5 roles per account (I'm assuming this means characters)
Party limit is 5 people (There is also something in very broken English about a 31-person party. WoW-style raid group perhaps?)
Gold will be called gold
Stalls are a feature (Hoping this is a proper Auction House not old style stalling in town)
Enchanting is in - Maximum + is 8
Enchants exist for: (copy pasta) added to the occult attack, the smallest weapon damage, the biggest weapon damage, injury elite, BOSS injury, damage and other occult sacred defense \ magic defense \ HP \ MP \ secret energy. Recovery \ phantom energy recovery.
Judging from how this is phrased, it seems that plussing something will not result in the existing plus getting removed (Strengthen each successful level will be +1 and equipment to strengthen, strengthen failure will not cause any impact on the enhanced level.)
Stones and "Crystals" will drop from monsters
Feature called "Blood Sacrifice" - (More copy pasta) Blood Sacrifice is the interface in the middle to put the main weapon, put sacrifice above interface equipment (weapons or armor or jewelry, grade limitation), the blood sacrifice ritual weapons disappear, the main weapon Daguai acquire additional properties added to increase the chances.Property and equipment can enhance the blood sacrifice, or to add a new property and equipment; may also remain unchanged; and a small probability cancel an existing property.Blood Sacrifice need to strengthen the blood sacrifice of the equipment you want to use another piece of equipment. After the blood sacrifice, blood sacrifice material placed on the equipment will be consumed.
Feature called "Purification" which is done by using a magic ring. Success rate is not 100%
3 types of battle pets - General, Elite, Best (probably lost in translation)
Combat pets are obtained by getting "pet summon token" from monster drops
Several PK modes including duel, assassination and retribution
Horses are in the game - From the way it is phrased, it seems they may be learnable spells rather than items
The game has story missions, custom tasks, guild tasks, share tasks and delegate tasks (copy pasta).
Changing jobs (trader/hunter/thief) has a 24hr cooldown and can be done at any time
Three types of trades: ordinary caravan, elite caravan, caravan glory
Should have read all this before mentioning the auction house. More copy pasta - From the game's main city, "auctioneer" NPC there to open the consignment shop interface commodity trading. Items in the auction in the store, purchase of two ways. One for the "bid" to buy, that is to get the highest bidder. Another is "one price" is consigned by custom, the price does not float room. Store items are purchased time limit, when the time arrives, the player with the highest bid to get the item. Or return to the consignment by the transaction fails.
Available features in beta: PK system, Huan burst systems, Zhanmeng systems, trade war, the mission system, skills system, magic ring systems, equipment to strengthen system, pet system, social system.
Lastly, it appears I was wrong. Assuming nothing was lost in translation, this IS Silkroad 2. "Silkroad R's official website links landing the official website of the Silk Road 2?
Our company has acquired the former agent of the trademark and domain name, so it can be adjusted according to the actual situation."
Judging by that it seems that they have purchased the Silkroad trademark from Joymax.
Individual pictures: (Warning, there's quite a few)
Spoiler!
I don't know about you guys, but I hope those health values were for testing purposes, or are we going to be hitting for over 1 million? That would just be stupid.
I dont know abou you guys, this doesnt look bad, I mean yea graphics could be better, but its not I played SRO all these years because of graphics. What server are we playing? Guild, I guess Avalon right? Btw downloaded game but when client update start launcher stop working, I guess that will be fixed.

Happens to me too. I think it might be because there is an update available but the servers aren't online yet.

That being said, I'll try it out just to see how it is, but on a different server than the tryhards.
Just realized it isn't even a continuation of Joymax's Silkroad. This one might actually have a chance then.
Yeah, the details are a bit hazy but I believe they've got a license to use the Silkroad name from Joymax but the game itself isn't being developed or published by Joymax.
Also I posted the link just to show there is already a thread on the subject. I posted some more details and screenshots in that thread and Itsune posted a website with tons more details too.

Is Silkroad even something that Joymax could copyright? I mean it was a real thing back in the day, I can't see how a random company can copyright it.
Yeah I understand that about the link, it's just sort of off putting that the first thing I saw was "Avalon returns"

Copyright, probably not, but they could trademark it. Depends what the trademark is used for too. A game based on the historical events called Silkroad Online is probably something that could be trademarked which basically just tells other companies "We have a game and this is what we're calling it. Don't do the same". Copyright would imply that they own the name, which they don't.
Bad phrasing on my part anyway, should have said the brand rather than the name. From what I have read they (JCPlanet / Silent Typhoon Studio) acquired the Silkroad-R brand and developed a new game based on it.

Fair enough. I remember screenshots and gameplay videos being leaked in the past for this game and it was always branded as Silkroad 2.
Interesting to see how this game comes out from this company.
Yeah, I'm sorry about that, but the images weren't any larger. I took them from sronew.com - they were the ones who decided to make them so small.
I'll start updating the blog with new posts from now on, by the way, so spread the good word to everyone who needs a place to check out all the latest regarding Silkroad 2

With all the last bit of active people left because registration is still down until someone fixes all these SQL errors.
The saga continues...Gonna give her a go...I am compelled... My e-mail verification isn't working however...I am not getting any e-mails from them....Nothing in junk mail either...I can't download the game....
I must say from those screen shots the graphic doesn't look as appealing as the original....

I'll try it for nostalgia sake but virtually zero chance I'll be playing seriously long term.
Also Silkroad Online =/= Silkroad Legend, I doubt they could bother the new guys in any way.
