European servers for the popular MMORPG Blade & Soul NEO have been plagued by persistent Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks for several weeks, impacting gameplay and frustrating players.

The ongoing disruptions have prompted NCSoft, the game’s developer and publisher, to issue “preliminary” compensation to affected users in the European region as a gesture of goodwill and an acknowledgement of the degraded service.

While the specific nature of the compensation package hasn’t been fully detailed, it’s understood to be an initial response to the challenges players are facing due to the external attacks. NCSoft has yet to release a comprehensive statement outlining the measures being taken to mitigate the DDoS attacks and prevent future incidents. The company has also not clarified the timeline for a complete resolution of the server stability issues.

Players are advised to monitor official Blade & Soul NEO channels for updates on the situation and further details regarding the compensation being offered.
