Netmarble Games, a fairly popular iOS developer who I regularly cover, has launched an all-new original free-to-play mobile adventure RPG inspired by the rich tradition of Norse mythology. Now available for download for mobile, Phantomgate: The Last Valkyrie offers hours of gameplay for you to enjoy.

To celebrate the launch of Netmarble’s latest title, the company partnered with famed music producer Kurt Hugo Schneider and solo recording artist Macy Kate to create an all-new music video utilizing Phantomgate’s theme song. In addition, an instrumental rendition of the game’s theme composed by popular violinist Taylor Davis will be added to the game via an update at a later date. Fans can check out both music videos below here and here. Continue reading this post ->

After much anticipation Netmarble has released a major content update for their turn-based RPG, Knights Chronicle, introducing new playable heroes and a dungeon as well. This update adds a new hero named Nix, a quiet, bandaged member of the Draiden Elites who specializes in offensive magic.

Players are guaranteed to summon Nix after choosing to summon on the “10+1 Summon” ten times. On the tenth “10+1 Summon,” Nix will join their party. Kristian, Demian’s Lieutenant and an all-rounder hero who specializes in light magic, is also now available to all players who complete the new single “Kristian” Advent Dungeon.

Next on the list is a new Hero Appraisal system that allows users to make a comment about heroes and it is much easier for the users to share their views to each other. To celebrate the release of these two new characters, a limited time “Attendance Event” will run until August 30th that gives players 4-star SSR summons for six of those seven days. On the last day of the event, 200 crystals will be rewarded. Kristian’s Advent Dungeon and Julie’s Advent Dungeon will also be playable for half-stamina.

Knights Chronicle is available for free on the App Store by clicking here, however, there are in-app purchases. Continue reading this post ->

Netmarble is back at it again with yet another RPG that’s slotted to release on iOS probably sometime later this year. As with most of their upcoming games, the developers have opened pre-registration for their newest action RPG called Destiny Knights. From today and until the game’s release players that pre-register will be rewarded with in-game items including 500 rubies.

Destiny Knights features high quality graphics with a variety of interesting characters and a fairly in-depth story line. There’s a total of six different forces, each containing different characters as well as a “unique” battle system according to Netmarble. The ‘Break’ system can be activated with a touch and drag at the right moments, similar to a rhythm game, giving players more damage and a break effect to enemies. Various tactics and play style can be made with the unique touch and drag control system.

According to the email I received Destiny Knights will release in 126 countries and the official website can be seen here to subscribe for instant updates. As of right now there’s no official release date from what I could find, but we’ll be sure to keep you update. Those interest can pre-register here. Continue reading this post ->
