📱 MobileKing of Fighters AFK introduces new character with Cyborg Fighter K'
It's the bank holiday over here in the UK, so you may notice that news is a bit slow today. But don't mistake that for being nothing - as is the case with the latest character being added to idle RPG The King of Fighters AFK, in the form of Cyborg Fighter K'. And trivia answer here for you, K' is actually pronounced 'Kay-Dash'. Funny that. This cyborg was created by using the genes of another series mainstay, Kyo Kusanagi, and has an introverted personality, as you're wont to do if you were created to be a living weapon. ...

📱 MobileKi-Gou Keikaku is an upcoming alt-history strategy RPG from Kancolle's developers
I have always been a bit iffy on April Fool's. Both because you get the occasional announcement you really wish were true, and many legit launches tend to fly under the radar. So I'm pleased to find that the upcoming alt-history RPG Project Ki, or Ki-Gou Keikaku, seems very real! Coming to us from the Kancolle developers C2Architecture, Ki-Gou Keikaku is, as mentioned above, an alternate-history RPG where you seem to command a squad of soldiers in battle. As many have pointed out, there's seemingly quite a bit of Valkyria Chronicles about this upcoming project. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/ki-gou-keikaku/announced/)
📱 MobileDragon Ruins is out now on mobile, offering a hardcore dungeon-delving experience
With the Bank Holiday on the cards for us tomorrow, things may be quieter. But don't fret, because aside from our latest list of the five new mobile games to try this week, my personal suggestion would be to see about purchasing the newly released Dragon Ruins for iOS and Android!

This hardcore dungeon crawler sees you headed to the titular ruins with the aim of slaying the dragon that lurks therein. Along the way, you'll slay monsters, acquire gold and make trips back to the surface to level up and upgrade your gear. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/dragon-ruins/out-now/)
📱 MobileSea of Stars shows off new mobile gameplay ahead of launch next week
With Kemco being so preeminent in the publishing of JRPGs on mobile, it can be easy to forget that the platform isn't all that flush with them. But Playdigious is once more stepping into the genre by publishing Sabotage Studios' Sea of Stars for iOS and Android on April 7th! But, you likely already know that if you have any interest in classics of the genre, such as Chrono Trigger or the ever-popular Final Fantasy. But if you've not yet had the pleasure of playing Sea of Stars on another platform, or any for that matter, you might be eager to find out how it'll play on mobile. ...

The excitement of Where Winds Meet is set to expand significantly today, as chapter two of the long-awaited Hexi expansion launches on all platforms! And if you thought all of China was merely bamboo forests, sweeping mountains and wide plains, then the land of Hexi is set to prove you wrong.
