Defense Derby is an upcoming tower defence game from Krafton subsidiary RisingWings, now open for beta testing

RisingWings, a subsidiary of KRAFTON, Inc., has officially announced that Android players can now sign up for the global pre-testing phase of Defense Derby, the studio's tower defence game on mobile with strategic elements. Android users can download the game beginning September 15th on Google Play to give the game a go ahead of its official launch.

In Defense Derby, players can expect to engage in real-time strategic defence from September 15th to September 30th. The PvP title features four players in each round who will defend their castles against hordes of incoming foes. They can build their decks via an auction for cards, and whoever is the last one standing will be declared the winner.

Defense Derby will offer immersive and intense gameplay by introducing strategic card combinations to create various synergy effects, and adding the auction system to make bold moves by predicting the opponent’s next step,” says Moon-chul Kang, Vice President of RisingWings. “Before the official launch, we ask for players’ participation and feedback during global pre-release testing.
