If you were disheartened by the closure of King’s Raid, there's good news on the horizon: it's set to make a comeback. Masangsoft has acquired the intellectual property of this beloved mobile RPG and is gearing up for a comprehensive revival after its service ended on April 15th.
Originally launched in 2017, King’s Raid distinguished itself by opting out of the typical gacha mechanics in favor of a more player-friendly hero collection system. With its real-time 3D battles, expansive storyline, and meticulously crafted character designs, the game garnered a loyal following across the globe, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Despite its success, operational challenges led to its shutdown earlier this month.
In a swift turnaround, Masangsoft finalized its acquisition on March 17th and is already in the process of developing a global relaunch. While specific details are still forthcoming, fans can anticipate a full disclosure of the relaunch schedule 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's journey weaves through a rich narrative tapestry of alliances, betrayals, and epic confrontations.
The narrative of the first season culminates in a thrilling climax, while the second season delves deeper into the lore and explores the Vespian Empire. For those seeking similar gaming experiences, don't miss out on our curated list of the *best RPGs to play on Android!*

King’s Raid promises a full-fledged RPG experience complete with real-time PvP, colossal raid battles, and extensive customization through hero awakening and gear progression.
While Masangsoft has kept the specifics of the relaunch under wraps, fans can look forward to an enhanced version of the game that retains the essence of what made King’s Raid special.
