If you were disheartened by the closure of King’s Raid, there's fantastic 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 comprehensive revival after its shutdown on April 15th.
Originally hitting the market in 2017, King’s Raid distinguished itself by opting out of the typical gacha system, instead offering a more player-friendly hero collection approach. With its engaging real-time 3D battles, a sprawling storyline, and stunning character designs, it quickly amassed a loyal following, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. However, despite its popularity, operational challenges led to its unfortunate closure.
But the story doesn’t end there. Masangsoft, which secured the acquisition on March 17th, is now actively working on a global relaunch. While details are still forthcoming, an announcement with the full schedule is expected 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 lost brother. Accompanied by his childhood friend Frey, the magician Cleo, and bodyguard Roi, Kasel navigates through a narrative rich with alliances, betrayals, and epic confrontations.
The first season culminates in a dramatic showdown, while the second season delves into the Vespian Empire, enriching the game's lore. For those craving similar adventures, don't miss our curated list of the best RPGs to play on Android!
Gameplay in King’s Raid involves assembling teams from a diverse array of heroes categorized into seven classes, each with unique roles and abilities. Players can enjoy a complete RPG experience, featuring real-time PvP, large-scale 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 an updated version that preserves the essence of what made King’s Raid special. To stay in the loop with the relaunch schedule and participate in community events, make sure to join their Discord channel.
