If you were disheartened by the closure of King's Raid last week on April 15th, there's some fantastic news on the horizon: the beloved mobile RPG is set to make a triumphant return. Masangsoft has acquired the intellectual property and is gearing up for a full-scale revival of the game.
Originally launched in 2017, King's Raid distinguished itself by eschewing the common gacha mechanics in favor of a more player-friendly hero collection system. With its real-time 3D battles, engaging story, and meticulously crafted character designs, the game cultivated a passionate global fanbase, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Despite these strengths, operational challenges led to its unfortunate shutdown.
However, Masangsoft stepped in swiftly, finalizing the acquisition on March 17th and immediately commencing development for a global relaunch. While specific details are still forthcoming, the full relaunch schedule will be unveiled soon, promising exciting updates and enhancements.
Set in 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 richly woven narrative filled with alliances, betrayals, and epic battles.
The first season's storyline culminates in a thrilling showdown, while the second season delves into the Vespian Empire, further expanding the game's lore. For fans looking for similar gaming experiences, don't miss out on our curated list of the best RPGs to play on Android!

While Masangsoft has yet to disclose the specific changes and improvements planned for the relaunch, fans can anticipate a refreshed version of what made King's Raid so special.
