Here comes an exciting new real-time strategy mobile RPG from SEGA — Revolve8! Created by Masayoshi Kikuchi (producer of Yakuza/Ryu ga gotoku series) and Koji Igarashi (Symphony of the Night, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night), Revolve8 brings a reimagination of popular fairy tale characters such as a motorcycle-loving idol Cinderella and a social media-savvy Red Riding Hood!
Revolve8’s gameplay is similar to Clash Royale — players build his/her own deck of 8 cards and is tasked to destroy your enemy towers while defending his/her own. The game’s cards also has unique and powerful Hero skills which opens new opportunities for different combinations and strategy in real-time battles.
