If you were disheartened by the closure of King's Raid, there's good news on the horizon: the game is making a comeback. Masangsoft has acquired the intellectual property of this beloved mobile RPG and is gearing up for a full-scale revival after its shutdown on April 15th.
Launched initially in 2017, King's Raid distinguished itself by steering away from traditional gacha mechanics, opting instead for a more player-friendly hero collection system. Its real-time 3D battles, engaging storyline, and meticulously designed characters helped it amass a loyal following, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Despite these strengths, the game faced operational challenges that led to its recent closure.
However, Masangsoft swiftly stepped in, finalizing the acquisition on March 17th and immediately starting work on a global relaunch. While details remain scarce, a full disclosure of the relaunch schedule is expected soon.
Set in the continent of Orbis, King's Raid follows the tale 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 narrative rich with alliances, betrayals, and epic confrontations. The first season culminates in a thrilling showdown, and the second season delves into the Vespian Empire, expanding on the game's lore.

While Masangsoft has kept the specifics of the relaunch under wraps, fans can anticipate an enhanced version of what originally made King's Raid a standout title. To stay updated on the relaunch schedule and participate in community events, make sure to join their Discord channel.
