We’ve been following Crescent Moon’s Raid Leader for what feels like way too long now. I’ve found myself saying for the past year how much I wish Battleheart was fleshed out into a larger game, as saying that Battleheart left me wanting more would be the largest understatement of 2011. We’ve covered how Raid Leader works in our preview:
In Raid Leader, you’ll be taking a knight, a mage, and an archer, against a variety of damage-eating, MMO-like bosses that all appear to have special mechanical hooks. For example, there’s a yeti-like monster with a freeze spell that turns its target into a block of ice. In order to break out, you’ll have to tap on the screen. There’s also a worm that, much to the archer and mage’s chagrin, spawns mobs of life-sucking blood leaches all over the battlefield.
Now you can see all this in action in the recently released trailer:
Per the trailer, it’s on track for a release next week. Stay tuned for a full review once the game actually hits.
