Jump King, a 2D Platformer, Soft Launches on Android with Two Expansions

The highly anticipated mobile version of Jump King, a 2D platformer initially launched on PC in 2019 by Nexile, has entered its soft-launch phase on Android, with UKIYO as its publisher. Currently, players in the UK, Canada, the Philippines, and Denmark can dive into the game for free, with a global release planned for the near future.

Jump King is all about mastering the art of the jump. Your ultimate goal? Reach the top to meet the Smoking Hot Babe. It's a simple premise, but the challenge lies in the execution. There are no mid-air corrections or safety nets here. You hold to charge, release to jump, and aim to land exactly where you intended. But beware, the higher you climb, the harder you fall. A single misstep can send you tumbling back down, potentially erasing hours of progress in an instant. You start with 20 hearts, and each fall costs you one. Run out of hearts, and you'll need to wait for the daily fortune wheel to replenish your supply with 5 to 100 free hearts, or you can opt to purchase more. It's a true test of patience and precision, aptly named Jump King.

Expansions Included in the Mobile Version

Once you conquer the base game, the adventure doesn't end there. The mobile version comes with two free expansions: New Babe+ and Ghost of the Babe. New Babe+ challenges you in a world that feels familiar yet different, pushing your jumping skills to new heights. Meanwhile, Ghost of the Babe takes you on a journey through a desolate landscape beyond Philosopher's Forest, making you ponder the very purpose of your climb.

Jump King is an experience of leaping, falling, cursing, and trying again. If you're in one of the soft-launch regions, head over to the Google Play Store and give it a shot. The game's unique blend of challenge and frustration is waiting for you.
