Throne and Liberty Enters a New Era Under NC
NCSoft has officially taken over global publishing duties for Throne and Liberty
NC (NCSoft) has officially taken over global publishing duties for Throne and Liberty from Amazon Games, merging the global and Korean services into a single unified ecosystem. To mark the transition, new Lead Community Manager Ronin hosted the publisher's inaugural livestream—kicking things off with a tongue-in-cheek skit about migrating server data before diving into the state of the game, Update 4.2.0, free community rewards, and a roadmap for the coming months.
Publisher Transition and Community Overhaul
A Unified Ecosystem: First Spark Games remains at the helm of development (and shared a dedicated welcome message during the broadcast), while publishing, customer support, and the official website (now hosted at tl.plaync.com) have moved directly under NC. Most existing social channels remain unchanged, with Twitch being the sole brand-new official account. Xbox players, however, will need to download a new client app to continue playing.
Discord Relaunch and Creator Program: NC has lifted heavy restrictions on the official Discord server—removing slow mode, phone verification, and media blocks—while opening applications for volunteer moderators. The publisher also launched an official Creator Program, granting participating streamers and guide-makers monthly giveaway codes to host their own community events.
Six-Week Listening Period: NC is kicking off an intensive feedback initiative to evaluate player priorities. The campaign features a structured community survey launching next week, focused Discord discussions, and direct outreach to guild leaders, content creators, and lapsed players, culminating in a dedicated recap stream this January.
Update 4.2.0 Highlights and In-Game Events
Instant Boost and System Revamps: Every account can claim a free Character Boost Ticket—usable on both new and existing characters—that jumps players to Level 60 with starter PvP gear, Weapon Mastery, outfits, and roughly 9,000 Combat Power. Update 4.2.0 also overhauls Skill Cores (allowing free swapping without extraction costs and introducing saved presets), enables simultaneous matchmaking for up to three activities, updates Tower of Greed, Gate of Infinity, Battlegrounds, and Hall of Illusions, adds new Lithograph entries, adjusts scheduled maintenance windows, and introduces weapon balance changes across Daggers, Longbows, Crossbows, Staffs, and Orbs.
Homecoming Events: To celebrate the transition, players can jump into a 35-day login calendar culminating in a Tevent/Archboss weapon selection chest, hunt for treasure in the Lucky Mystic Portals event, earn extra rewards by queuing co-op content with new or lower-CP players, and grab limited-time shop items—including an event pass and 150 Resin Cores—for just 100 Sollant each.
Freebies and Promo Codes
Gauntlet Design Contest Winner: NC revealed the winner of the community gauntlet design contest: Immortal Wraith Gauntlets by Calypso. The winning cosmetic skin will be distributed free of charge to all players via in-game mail next week.
Newsletter Perks and Livestream Code: Signing up for the newsletter on the new official website grants a free code for 100 Trait Unlock Stones. Additionally, viewers were given the universal promo code TLHOMECOMING, redeemable for three days of Da Vinci's Favor, 15 Brilliant/Omnipotence Skill Growth Books, and three Auction House Seal Keys ahead of the Auction House's upcoming return.
What’s Next on the Roadmap
Looking ahead to the end of the year, the community team plans to host Solisium World Tour in-game server meetups, hide-and-seek events, additional creative contests, a festive holiday livestream, the 12 Days of Solisium community scavenger hunt, and the year-end Community Awards celebrating standout players, guilds, and creators.
