How Square Enix Is Reinventing Its First-Ever Game As A Mobile Title
(GameSpot Wii News)
 


King`s Knight may not carry the name recognition of Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest, but the game nevertheless has an important place in Square Enix`s history. The unusual scrolling shooter/RPG hybrid was actually the first title Squaresoft released as an independent company, arriving for the NES and MSX in Japan in 1986 (with a US release following in 1989). It also has a reputation for not being very good, a fact Square Enix would knowingly poke fun at in Final Fantasy XV. In that title, King`s Knight isn`t a forgotten curio but a worldwide success, and Noctis and his friends are often heard referencing the game and seen playing it on their phones in their downtime.Wrath of the Dark Dragon, Square Enix`s new real-world King`s Knight game for mobile, is heavily inspired by the original, though it isn`t a remake. According to producer Daisuke Motohashi, Wrath of the Dark Dragon is an original adventure that builds upon the first King`s Knight. The game takes places approximately 50 years after the previous title and features revamped visuals and a number of new characters, including the four heroes from the original. Along with the new story quests, the game places a heavier emphasis on RPG elements, with different gear to equip across five different job classes. It also includes a multiplayer mode that allows up to four players to tackle stages together.One of the unique gameplay hooks in the first King`s Knight was its `formation` mechanic; toward the end of the game, players could control all four characters simultaneously in a diamond formation. Wrath of the Dark Dragon retains this element and expands it to play a more crucial role. This time around, players will unlock different kinds of formations after completing quests in the game`s multiplayer mode; when each player fits into these formations, you`ll perform summons and unleash special attacks.King`s Knight: Wrath of the Dark Dragon is coming to iOS and Android devices later this year.
