We would like to thank all the players who began their Solisium adventure in the open beta. Your participation and feedback have been incredibly valuable in helping NCSOFT implement the necessary changes to adapt THRONE AND LIBERTY since its original release in Korea to the regions where Amazon Games publishes it. Additionally, we have seen that players are happier with the game following the latest major patch in Korea, which introduced several new updates and systems. We will work to deliver the best possible experience at launch. Based on your feedback, test results, and the reception of some new features, we will be making some important changes to the game.
The team hit the ground running as soon as the beta ended, but fully implementing community feedback and integrating new systems will take some time. To give them room to incorporate the biggest changes and systems, we’ve decided to move the launch of the beta to a later date. THRONE AND LIBERTY as of October 1, 2024, and Early Access as of September 26, 2024. Below you will find the specific changes we want to implement to ensure that THRONE AND LIBERTY is in the best possible condition on launch day.
Release Updates
Changes due to player feedback
Fight
We’re tweaking combat to improve the initial experience and better match the good feeling you got from the late-game combat. These improvements include:
-
Improved camera controls to remove anti-aliasing (optional) and increase camera movement speed.
-
Adjustments to skill acquisition levels to offer more variety in skills and builds from the start.
-
More intuitive control when aiming.
Progress and level up
We’ve received feedback from open beta participants about the sheer number of systems that are introduced too close together at the beginning of the game as you progress through the early levels. We’re adjusting this progression to better spread out system introductions so you can focus on completing missions and learning how to master your character in combat before adding more.
Guilds
THRONE AND LIBERTY is better with company. As a guild, you’ll be able to take full advantage of unique modes like Castle Siege, travel the open world with more confidence thanks to valuable guild rewards, and more easily take on enemy players. We’re expanding the available tags so you can more easily find guilds that fit your style.
News
We are happy to announce that we will be previewing some of the major changes in the Korean version of THRONE AND LIBERTYThe three systems outlined here aren’t all of the changes we’re making, but we know that our dedicated fans are eagerly awaiting them. In addition to these systems, we’re adding quality of life changes, and we’ll continue to add more after launch.
Skill Specializations
The new Skill Specialization system will be available at launch in Amazon Games regions, allowing for even more customization of combat style. You can see a sample of the new specializations below.

We’re adding Amitoi Expeditions, a system that allows you to send your Amitoi on adventures to earn rewards when they’re not accompanying you on your travels across Solisium. We’re also adding the Amitoi’s home, the base of operations for these expeditions.
Looking to the future
We’re still going to have more changes and updates for THRONE AND LIBERTY In the future, closer to launch, we’ll be talking about the roadmap for the first two months and when you can expect certain content to be released in a team update.
Once again, the team would like to thank you for your passion, participation and support in the launch of THRONE AND LIBERTY October 1, 2024. We look forward to seeing you at Solisium.
