If the end of King’s Raid left you feeling down, there's fantastic news on the horizon: the beloved mobile RPG is making a comeback! Masangsoft has stepped in to revive the game after its service concluded on April 15th. Having secured the IP, Masangsoft is now gearing up for a comprehensive relaunch, promising to bring back the magic that captivated players worldwide.
Launched back in 2017, King’s Raid distinguished itself with a player-friendly hero collection system, steering clear of the typical gacha mechanics. Its real-time 3D battles, engaging storyline, and top-notch character designs helped it carve out a loyal following, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Despite its appeal, operational challenges forced its closure earlier this month.
In a swift turnaround, Masangsoft announced their acquisition of King’s Raid on March 17th and has since been hard at work on its global relaunch. While details remain under wraps, the company promises a full-scale revival, with more updates expected soon.
Set in the vast continent of Orbis, King’s Raid follows the adventures of Kasel, a young knight-in-training on a quest to find his missing brother. Joined by his childhood friend Frey, the magician Cleo, and bodyguard Roi, Kasel’s journey weaves through a tapestry of alliances, betrayals, and epic battles. The narrative reaches its peak in the first season's climactic showdown, with the second season delving into the Vespian Empire and enriching the game's lore.

In terms of gameplay, King’s Raid offers a deep RPG experience, allowing you to assemble teams from an extensive roster of heroes categorized into seven distinct classes. Each class brings unique roles and skillsets to the table, ensuring a rich and varied gameplay experience. You'll dive into real-time PvP, engage in massive raid battles, and enjoy deep customization through hero awakening and gear progression.
While Masangsoft has yet to unveil the specific changes and enhancements for the relaunch, fans can anticipate a refreshed version of the game that retains the essence of what made King’s Raid special.
