If you were disheartened by the end of King’s Raid, there's fantastic news on the horizon: it's officially making a comeback. Masangsoft has acquired the IP for this beloved mobile RPG and is gearing up for a full-scale revival after its closure on April 15th.
Launched back in 2017, King’s Raid distinguished itself by opting out of the typical gacha mechanics, instead favoring a more player-friendly hero collection system. Boasting real-time 3D battles, a sprawling narrative, and top-notch character designs, it garnered a loyal following across the globe, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. However, operational challenges led to its unfortunate shutdown earlier this month.
But fear not—mere days after its closure, Masangsoft swooped in to save the day. The company secured the acquisition on March 17th and has confirmed that development for a global relaunch is already in progress. While details remain scarce, a full schedule is expected to be revealed soon.
Set in the continent of Orbis, King’s Raid follows the adventures of 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 confrontations.
The narrative reaches its climax in the first season's high-stakes showdown, while the second season delves into the Vespian Empire and enriches the lore previously introduced. For fans eager for similar adventures, don't miss out on our curated 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 distinct classes, each with unique roles and abilities. King’s Raid promises a comprehensive RPG experience, complete with real-time PvP, massive raid battles, and extensive customization through awakening and gear progression.
While Masangsoft has yet to disclose specifics about changes or enhancements for the relaunch, you can anticipate a revitalized version of the cherished RPG. If you're keen on staying updated with the relaunch schedule and participating in community events, make sure to join their Discord channel.
