While the deals and the stats of the gaming world are important, nothing would happen without the research, funding and, of course, development that goes into making a great game.

So here’s a collection of the most exciting new mobile games right now, the developers and publishers behind them, and why, exactly, they’ve made the cut.

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad

New Netmarble RPG Game of Thrones: Kingsroad sees players walk into the dangerous world of Westeros and explore all its seven kingdoms, including every iconic locale from King’s Landing to Castle Black.

In Kingsroad, players take on the role of an illegitimate child from House Tyre on a mission to restore their house to its former glory.

Puzzle & Dragons 0

After one month in the pre-registration phase, GungHo Online Entertainment’s Puzzle & Dragons 0 has launched with plenty of dragons to raise and combos to secure, building on the franchise’s proven puzzle RPG mechanics while also introducing new systems.

The title is the latest entry in the highly lucrative Puzzle & Dragons series. The original 2012 title was the first mobile game to ever surpass $1 billion in revenue.

Summoners War Rush

New idle defence RPG Summoners War: Rush is the latest mobile game building on the Summoners War IP, championing a Sky Island Defence mode with roguelike elements and a skill card system.

Developer Com2uS has promised chapter-specific enemies, paths and bosses, a campaign mode, in real-time time trial battles and more.

Is This Yours?

Stepping into the shoes of an administrator on a lost and found desk, Tepes Ovidiu’s Is This Yours? tasks players with returning the correct lost items to customers, whether that’s earbuds, passports or a burrito. The faster an item is correctly returned, the greater the reputation a player earns.

Command and Conquer: Legions

Level Infinite’s Command and Conquer: Legions is finally out of soft launch in the West, as the Yuri Corps have risen again with even more powerful superweapons. Naturally, players are tasked with taking on the role of a commander and heading into battle against this global threat.

King of Crabs: Invasion

King of Crabs: Invasion has tapped the RTS genre over its predecessor’s battle royale style, with clever troop tactics turning the tide of war. Of course, those troops are crabs and the field of war is an exotic island. Developer Robot Squid has also included islands for players to go and conquer themselves.

MatchBound Legends

Bandai Namco Entertainment’s new puzzle game MatchBound Legends is a 3D take on the popular mobile genre with RPG elements and battles thrown in for added depth. This title sees players strategically match, unleash special attacks and lead a team of heroes through a mystical world from the heights of a flying ship, though only in the Philippines for now.
