If you were disheartened by the end of King’s Raid, there's fantastic news on the horizon: the beloved mobile RPG is making a comeback. Masangsoft has acquired the IP and is set to revive the game following its closure on April 15th. Originally launched in 2017, King’s Raid distinguished itself by eschewing traditional gacha mechanics in favor of a more player-friendly hero collection system. Its real-time 3D battles, expansive narrative, and top-notch character designs earned it a loyal following, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Despite these strengths, operational challenges led to its shutdown earlier this month.
However, Masangsoft stepped in swiftly, finalizing the acquisition on March 17th and confirming that development for a global relaunch is already in progress. While specific details remain under wraps, a full relaunch schedule is expected to be announced soon.
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, magician Cleo, and bodyguard Roi, Kasel navigates a rich storyline filled with alliances, betrayals, and epic battles. The first season culminates in a thrilling showdown, while the second season delves into the Vespian Empire, further enriching the game's lore.

While Masangsoft has yet to disclose the specific changes or enhancements for the relaunch, fans can anticipate a refreshed version of what made the original game so special.
