Get ready to welcome a new world of adorable creatures and endless adventure! After years of dominating the mobile gaming scene in China, Roco Kingdom is officially making its global debut. Morefun Studios is bringing this beloved franchise to PC and mobile platforms, promising a unique blend of creature collection, open-world exploration, and social interaction that’s been captivating players for over a decade.
A Legacy Built on Charm: What Makes Roco Kingdom Special?
While the name might be new to many Western gamers, Roco Kingdom boasts an impressive pedigree. Originally launched as a browser game in 2010, this franchise has spawned four full-length films, a long-running animated series, and over 100 published books. The core gameplay loop has resonated with players across China, amassing over 350 million registered users. Now, it’s time for the rest of the world to experience the magic.
Enter Carosia: Your Adventure Begins
Roco Kingdom is a massively multiplayer online (MMO) creature collection game where players take on the role of a “Roco,” exploring the vast continent of Carosia and forging friendships with its unique inhabitants, known as Jinis. At launch, players will encounter over 400 different Jinis, each possessing distinct characteristics like size, weight, and personality traits. This variety ensures that every playthrough feels fresh and dynamic.
Developed by Morefun Studios, the team behind the popular extraction shooter Arena Breakout: Infinite, Roco Kingdom has been in development for over six years. The game world is meticulously crafted, with each region built around natural habitats designed to showcase the diverse Jinis that call them home. From sprawling forests to towering mountains, Carosia offers a visually stunning and immersive experience.
Friendship, Exploration, and Cross-Platform Play
The core gameplay loop of Roco Kingdom revolves around discovering, collecting, and nurturing Jinis. However, the game goes beyond simple creature collection by offering robust social features. Players can decorate their homes, visit friends’ habitats, and embark on collaborative adventures across Carosia. The game also boasts cross-platform support between PC and mobile devices, allowing players to connect and explore together regardless of their preferred platform.
Free-to-Play, Fair Play: Morefun’s Commitment
While Roco Kingdom is free-to-play, Morefun Studios emphasizes that it’s not just another “pay-to-win” experience. All Jinis can be obtained through gameplay, and the competitive meta is heavily influenced by strategic choices like team composition, creature matchups, and roster diversity. This ensures that skill and planning are more important than spending money.
The global closed beta test for Roco Kingdom kicks off on October 27th. You can check out the official trailer here:
