If the end of King’s Raid left you feeling downhearted, I’ve got some fantastic news to lift your spirits: 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 unexpected shutdown on April 15th.
King’s Raid, which first hit the scene back in 2017, distinguished itself by opting out of the conventional gacha system in favor of a more player-friendly hero collection approach. Its real-time 3D battles, engaging storyline, and meticulously crafted characters helped it amass a loyal following, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Unfortunately, operational challenges led to its closure earlier this month.
But fear not—within days of the shutdown, Masangsoft stepped in, having finalized the acquisition on March 17th. They're now hard at work on a global relaunch. While details are still under wraps, we can expect a full disclosure of the relaunch schedule soon.
Set against the backdrop of the continent of Orbis, King’s Raid follows the journey 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 navigates a world filled with alliances, betrayals, and epic battles.
The narrative reaches a thrilling climax in the first season, leading into a deeper exploration of the Vespian Empire and its lore in the second season. For those seeking similar experiences, 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 an extensive 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 deep customization options through awakening and gear progression.
While Masangsoft has yet to unveil the specific changes or enhancements for the relaunch, fans can look forward to a revitalized version of what made the original game so special.
