If you were disheartened by the end of King's Raid, there's good news on the horizon: it's making a comeback! Masangsoft has taken over the IP for this beloved mobile RPG and is gearing up for a full-scale revival after its closure on April 15th.
King's Raid, which first hit the scene in 2017, carved out a niche by eschewing the typical gacha system for a more player-friendly hero collection method. Its real-time 3D battles, engaging story, and beautifully designed characters helped it amass a loyal following, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Despite these strengths, operational challenges led to its unfortunate shutdown.
However, Masangsoft swiftly stepped in, finalizing the acquisition on March 17th and immediately kicking off development for a global relaunch. While details remain scarce, an announcement with a full schedule is expected soon.
Set against the backdrop of the continent of Orbis, King's Raid follows Kasel, a young knight-in-training on a quest to find his missing brother. Accompanied by his childhood friend Frey, the magician Cleo, and bodyguard Roi, Kasel's journey weaves through a tapestry of alliances, betrayals, and epic battles.
The narrative of the first season builds to a thrilling climax, while the second season delves into the Vespian Empire, enriching the game's lore. If you're eager for similar adventures, don't miss out on our list of the best RPGs to play on Android!
In terms of gameplay, you'll assemble teams from a diverse roster of heroes, categorized into seven classes, each with unique roles and abilities. King's Raid offers a comprehensive RPG experience, complete with real-time PvP, massive raid battles, and extensive customization options through awakening and gear progression.
While Masangsoft has kept the specifics of the relaunch under wraps, fans can anticipate a revitalized version of the game that honors its original charm. To stay updated on the relaunch schedule and community events, make sure to join the King's Raid Discord channel.
