Sword of the New World is a Korean fantasy MMORPG developed by IMC Games CoLtd and published in North America by K2 Network. It launched in the summer of 2007. Granado Espada won the 2006 Korean awards for Best Graphics and Game of the Year, with features previously unseen in an MMORPG (such as the ability for players to control multiple characters at the same time). Granado Espada features a unique art style based on the Baroque period of Europe, differing from the standard swords and sorcery fantasy themes of the genre.
The first English version of the game began Open Beta Testing on May 17, 2007. Publisher K2_network announced in January 2007 that they would be bringing Granado Espada to the North American and European markets in Summer 2007 under the title of Sword of the New World. The game was originally released under a pay-to-play model. On August 21, 2007, Sword of the New World became free-to-play.
On the 10 August 2007, IAHGames, which the game is licensed to in Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Vietnam, announced its business model for Granado Espada. Subsequently they informed players that on August 30, 2007, the game would become commercial. IAHGames gave players a 90-day free trial if they achieved Level 20 by that time. New players have a free five-day trial period and after which, they are required to pay. On December 05, 2007, as with its versions in other countries, the game became free-to-play.
Sword of the New World allows the trading of RNPC (Recruitable NPCs) cards between different players, allowing combinations of teams with more than one of the same UPC, as a player may only obtain a particular UPC card once. The card is used up once the UPC is created in the Barracks.
Some RNPCs may only be purchased by using items from the Bazarre (Cash Shop.) Soso, Baek Ho, Angie, Kurt and Eduardo are examples of this class of RNPC. Their cards cannot be traded. Instead, one must purchase a Mercenary card from the Bazarre. Using said Mercenary card, a Cash Shop RNPC is "Merced" and can then be traded.
A Family may join a guild. When a guild feels it is powerful enough, it may challenge and attempt to complete two quests to raise it"s guild level to 51, then 52. Upon completion of the second quest, a guild may choose to join either the Royalist or Republican faction. Every Saturday evening (North American time) the two faction compete against each other to control the various zones of the map. Occupying territories gives all guild members a hitpoint buff. They grow with the number of territories the guild controls.
