"Today's update is only the beginning of many exciting changes to come," said Nam-Chul Kim, CEO of Joymax. "It is our humble way of saying thank you to our millions of fans that have expressed interest in our game, and we vow to continue improvements for them."

As a permanent part of the improvements, newly created characters will be given a special package of nine different beginner items normally found exclusively via the cash shop. This new feature will be especially useful for the unique level-up event which can be used to race to the max level for the next four weeks. The players who reach the highest level or who reach 120 first in their servers will receive epic high-tier weapons and full sets of rare alchemy items! Will you be the reigning champion on December 11th?

Additionally, for every ten levels a player achieves, they will receive a variety of bonus items which will aid them in their levelling. These items include Resurrection Scroll, Premium Gold Time Plus, and Inventory Expansion; and with a max level of 100 to aim for, there will be all together 10 different goods to earn. These new level-up bonuses are in addition to a completely revamped tutorial, which launches today.

Silkroad Online also takes into account for players when real life calls by adding the new Rested Experience system. It will give players between 50-100% bonus EXP based on when they last logged off. If that does not seem enough, players should definitely participate in the special "Joymax Day" event. This shared event across all titles grants a massive 1000% EXP Gain bonus to players who come and spread the news to their friends.
