Lineage II Gameplay

The first thing a player does when playing Lineage II is to create a character. They can choose their character's race and personalise the character's face and hair. However, the gameplay allows many options for personalisation of the character visuals: for example, the player can choose a hairstyle, hair colour, facial expression, and gender among other features.

Every player begins the game in a temple in their character's race's zone (for example: humans start in "Talking Island" and the Dark Elves in "The Shilen Temple"). Most commonly, the player can choose between a mage and a fighter in each race except Dwarves and Kamael, which can be only fighters.

In a war-torn land spanning two continents, three kingdoms vie for power as they engage in a battle for ultimate supremacy. As a lone warrior in this conflict, you must choose an allegiance and confront enemies from all sides as you strive to overcome conflict against the mightiest of challengers. It is your time to step into the light and enforce your will upon the realm. Seize your destiny and allow your own hand to write the history that will be remembered in Lineage II.

Shape your journey in Lineage II by creating a unique avatar from a selection of 7 unique races (Human, Elf, Dark Elf, Orc, Dwarf, Kamael, and Ertheia), each with their own unique characteristics and traits that lead you down the path of more than 30 potential classes you can evolve into. Whether you take the path of a Warrior to become a Dreadnought or grow from a Wizard to an Archmage, the choice is yours to make!
