Developer Action Square has aired the first gameplay trailer for its upcoming action RPG title Kingdom: The Blood:



Based on the Netflix series Kingdom, which the game's story mode follows, Kingdom: The Blood takes players across Korean palaces as well as the zombie-infested city of Hanyang and features motion capture recorded with a professional Korean sword dancer to replicate the Korean-style combat. Other modes include a Conquest Mode, a sequence of diverse five-minute battles, multi-boss battles and PvP combat.

Kingdom: The Blood will launch globally on mobile and PC but a release date has yet to be announced.

I know it is Korea but that still seems like it should be a red flag, though "based on the Netflix series" is probably the greater one in that.

Koreans do seem to enjoy their zombies as well, not that I am complaining as all I have seen thus far on that front has been great.

As far as that trailer. Don't know what I can tell from it. Hopefully I can call it a spiritual sequel to one of my PS1 favourites/guilty pleasures Ronin blade/soul of the samurai.

Yeah gameplay seems pretty smooth, but the graphics don't look particularly next gen, and it's also missing a certain second level of complexity that you'd expect from a console/PC game. Like a dumbed down Dark Souls or Ghost of Tsushima (as above).

These Korean and Chinese games sometimes have interesting concepts, but are just always even further behind than Japanese games are to Western ones. I don't believe either nation has a whole lot of experience with this stuff, but maybe they'll be good at it someday.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
