GREE launches Knights & Dragons: Rise of the Dark Prince for iOS devices

Metal Gear Solid: Social Ops developer GREE has announced fantasy RPG Knights & Dragons: Rise of the Dark Prince for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. It's out now and completely free. Get more details, download links and screens below.

Like most GREE titles, Knights & Dragons has a slew of social features, including weekly PvP challenges, hiring knights created by other players to help you in battle - think Dragon's Dogma's 'Pawn' system - plus friending, leaderboards and more.

In a statement issued to VG247, Eiji Araki, SVP, Social Games, GREE International, Inc said of the game's release, “In Knights & Dragons, we set out to develop a fun and accessible RPG experience that delivers all the social, strategic and immersive elements that mobile social gamers love.

"We also wanted to bring a deeper storyline by introducing an entertaining plot, witty dialogue, playful characters and high-production art, as well as a continuous dose of new content, features and events to keep the fun fresh. We’ve worked hard to make this title more than a game, but an ongoing entertaining experience.”
