- A new K-indie game chronicling the journey of a necromancer leading an undead army.
- From selectable reincarnation to bridge defense mode… official release date TBD
One-person development studio Ankochi Studio officially launched Google Play pre-registration for its new dark fantasy action RPG , ‘Necromancer: Undead Legion RPG,’ on October 3rd.
This new title is the official sequel to ‘Necromancer RPG,’ which was recognized for its solid gameplay when it was selected as a ‘New Game of the Week (Google Featured)’ on Google Play in 2022.
In particular, it is garnering anticipation from indie game enthusiasts as it is not merely an upgraded version of an existing work, but a rebuilt title that was planned and developed from scratch by the same one-person developer.
The defeated enemy is my legion
The core of the combat is to raise an army by resurrecting the corpses of fallen enemies as the undead. The developers introduced the process of defeating enemies, raising them as the undead, and then commanding or detonating them as the main combat flow.
Instead of merely commanding a legion from the rear, the player jumps directly into the battlefield. Moving as a Necromancer, the player fights enemies and can teleport away during dangerous moments. Depending on the situation, the player must choose whether to immediately consume corpses to seize the flow of the battle or save them for a powerful attack.
The Undead feature 6 types of regular units each for Skeletons and Zombies. These evolve into two elite forms, bringing the total number of units to 36.
Players can assemble their own army by combining melee front-line units, ranged support units, and units that control enemies. Corpse explosions and the Reaper transformation, which activates during moments of crisis, are also means to turn the tide of battle.
According to the store description, as a minion levels up, its ‘Legion Resonance’ also increases. The higher the Legion Resonance, the more undead units it can command.
200 Stages and Runeword Equipment Farming
The game progresses by exploring a labyrinth consisting of 11 zones and 200 stages. Players must break seals and withstand increasingly intense pressure. The faster and cleaner you clear the stages, the higher the rank you can receive.
There are a total of 7 types of bosses. The attack range is displayed on the floor in advance, so you must check it and dodge it yourself.
Weapons, armor, and accessories appear with various options and sockets. You can collect 19 types of runes and craft 10 types of runewords using 3 runes, and at the blacksmith, you can reset equipment or transform it into other forms.
Selectable Reincarnation and Bridge Defense Mode
Reincarnation is not mandatory. If a player reincarnates at their will, they inherit the monument and the power of their previous life, starting their next journey in a stronger state and challenging themselves to reach deeper depths than before. The store page describes this title as a dark fantasy action RPG combined with roguelite-style challenges.
In the separate ‘Bridge Defense’ mode, players must defend the bridge from nighttime sieges using turrets, altars, and undead legions. An auto-hunting feature to assist with farming is also available as an option. However, the developers explained that player judgment is required when responding to boss battles and configuring builds.
A new solo-developed game that rebuilt the previous work from scratch
Ankochi Studio is a one-person development studio based in Korea that creates games using Unity. Its previous work, ‘Necromancer RPG’, was released on Android in 2022 and on iOS in 2023.
According to the developer, this game was selected as Google Play Korea’s ‘Recommended New Game of the Week’ and also ranked highly on ONE Store and the App Store. This new title is a reworked version created from scratch, inheriting the name and concept of the previous game.
