‘Rising Warriors’ is a Fantasy Strategy Game With Massive Armies Currently in Soft-Launch

TouchArcade Rating:

If you like your battles massive and steeped in fantasy, Rising Warriors, which you can check out in our forums, might be your thing. This upcoming fantasy strategy games, which has really nice visuals, features 80 vs 80 battles and looks fun. In Rising Warriors, you can build an army using 16 unit types that you slowly upgrade and then attach to them 8 human heroes – which you can also promote and evolve. According to the developers, there are countless combinations of troops, spells, Heroes, and Clan reinforcements, so since this is a multiplayer game, I can see a meta evolving as players build their armies and evolve their units.

During the battles you can cast your spells, but other than that you sit and watch that 80 v 80 bowling competition unfold. There’s also a base-building layer and, as to be expected, a Clan system as well. The multiplayer and Clan features are recent additions, so they are still being worked on. The game is in soft launch in Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, so if you want to check it out, follow our guide on how to get soft launched games.

      Art style looks very LCGO-ish.

      This could actually be a perfect fit for them. I feel like one of Crescent Moons biggest problems with their games is that their worlds feel empty. There's always something missing that doesn't seem to make the game feel lively. Interestingly enough, a Metroid-vania should feel that way as its part of what makes Metroid Metroid. So I think they can do really good here.

      As long as there's an exit with the appropriate gate (you gotta get item A to open door type A, for instance), I would think procedurally generated mazes would be fine. NetHack does this very well, and it's ancient.

      I like the art style for this as well as the new Ravensword. Flat polygons forever!

      Definitely intrigued.

      Yes, please.

      I'm hopeful. It's a wonder there aren't more metroidvania's on iOS. Is the style just more demanding to design and not worth the cost or what?

      This is looking like a day one buy-button-smasher to me! 🤓

      Sounds like No Man's Sky...nice 😁

        Yeah it does

        Yeah. I dunno what this metroidvania business is? But it totally screams no mans sky to me too! I hope there's more than 7 planets though. Crescent Moon recently described it as "a ton of planets to visit".
