HanbitSoft's mobile MMORPG 'Granado Espada M' launched a collaboration update with the Naver Webtoon fantasy IP 'Blade of the Phantom Master' on July 30. This update introduces characters and content from the series into the game, alongside a variety of commemorative events.

'Blade of the Phantom Master' is a flagship work by YLAB, an action-fantasy comic set in the fictional ancient nation of Jushin. It follows the story of Munsu, the last secret royal inspector, as he battles the source of evil, Ajitae. The series gained significant popularity in both Japan, where it was serialized in magazines, and Korea, where it was adapted into a webtoon.

A cinematic AI trailer was also released to mark the collaboration. The video features action-packed scenes depicting the convergence of the worlds of Blade of the Phantom Master and Granado Espada M.

For four weeks following the update, a collaboration pet summon event will be held for all users across all servers. Attendance rewards include Type A summon cards for the Legend grade pet 'Munsu' and Mythic grade pet 'Sando' during the first and second weeks, and Type B summon cards for the Legend grade pet 'Munsu' and Mythic grade pet 'Ajitae' during the third and fourth weeks.

An event to verify the acquisition of the 'Sando' character is also available. Players who obtain Sando in the event dungeon and post proof on the official community will contribute to a collective goal; once reached, additional rewards will be distributed to all users. A raffle will also be held for participants, with the Mythic grade collaboration pet Sando as a prize.

A new growth-focused server, 'Coimbra,' has also opened. For approximately 42 days, the Coimbra server will feature buffs including 3x EXP, increased Vis acquisition, and higher item drop rates. It also offers server-exclusive coupons, family level achievement rewards, and a payment cashback event. Support events for new and returning users include a +7 Moonstruck equipment set, an Awakening Jumping Card, and a Collector's Hero Selection Chest.

Additionally, in-game events such as the 'Pioneer King' event, which rewards the first users to complete the Castilla scenario, have been prepared.

Detailed information regarding the update and events can be found on the official Granado Espada M website and community.
