■ New Weapon Mastery “Scythe” introduced, featuring a Soul Harvest combat mechanic
■ Celebration events offer rewards worth up to 32,000 USDT and various Summon Tickets
[July 29, 2026] Smilegate today announced the launch of “Helena,” a new server for its MMORPG 『LORDNINE』 (developed by NX3GAMES), along with a series of special events celebrating both the game’s first anniversary and the opening of the new server.
The new Growth Boost Server, Helena, will open at 7:00 PM (UTC+8) on July 29.
Helena is designed to accelerate character progression by granting 50% additional EXP from Mastery Buffs compared to existing servers.
To help players progress more quickly during the early stages, Smilegate will provide rewards that enhance character Combat Power.
In addition, players who pre-registered starting July 14 will receive an exclusive limited-edition skin.
To commemorate LORDNINE’s first anniversary, Smilegate has also introduced the new Weapon Mastery, Scythe.
The Scythe is a massive two-handed weapon modeled after the Reaper’s scythe. As a melee weapon, it boasts short skill cooldowns and exceptional mobility.
It also features ranged attack skills and a unique combat mechanic that absorbs the souls of monsters with a certain probability, empowering its skills through Soul Harvest.
To celebrate both the first anniversary and the launch of the Helena server, Smilegate is hosting a variety of events, including a reward event featuring a total prize pool of 32,000 USDT.
Players who are the first to reach Character Level 100 can earn rewards of up to 10,460 USDT per player.
More details about the USDT Reward Event are available on the official website.
Until September 18, players can also participate in the First Anniversary Login Event and Mission Event.
By taking part, players can obtain 3 Epic Avatars and Artifacts, and up to 1,111 Summon Tickets.
