If the recent shutdown of King’s Raid left you feeling downhearted, I’ve got some fantastic news for you: the beloved mobile RPG is making a triumphant return. Masangsoft has officially acquired the IP and is set to revive the game after its closure on April 15th.
Since its debut in 2017, King’s Raid has been celebrated for its innovative approach, steering clear of traditional gacha mechanics and offering a more player-friendly hero collection system. With its stunning real-time 3D battles, expansive narrative, and meticulously crafted character designs, the game garnered a fervent following, especially in Japan and Southeast Asia. Despite these strengths, operational challenges led to its unfortunate end earlier this month.
But fear not, as Masangsoft swiftly stepped in to save the day. Finalizing the acquisition on March 17th, the company is now hard at work on a global relaunch of King’s Raid. While details are still being kept under wraps, an announcement with a full schedule is expected soon.
Set in the enchanting world 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 the loyal bodyguard Roi, Kasel’s journey weaves through a tapestry of alliances, betrayals, and epic confrontations.
The narrative reaches its peak in the first season with a gripping showdown, while the second season delves into the lore of the Vespian Empire, further enriching the game's world. For fans looking for similar adventures, don't miss our list of the best RPGs to play on Android!

The game promises a complete RPG experience, featuring real-time PvP, colossal raid battles, and extensive customization options through awakening and gear progression.
While Masangsoft has yet to disclose specific changes or enhancements for the relaunch, fans can look forward to a revitalized version of what made King’s Raid so special. To stay updated on the relaunch schedule and participate in community events, be sure to join the King’s Raid Discord channel.
