KRAFTON launches Defense Derby in India and Globally

Krafton and RisgingWings have launched Defense Derby, a real-time strategy mobile game that revives the tower defense genre in India.

RisingWings, an independent studio of KRAFTON, Inc., has officially launched Defense Derby, a real-time strategy mobile game that rejuvenates the tower defense genre in India. The game has been launched globally and can be downloaded from Google PlayStore and Apple App Store.

Defense Derby revitalizes the tower defense genre with exhilarating 4-player PvP battles, complex strategic challenges, intense psychological warfare, and dynamic synergy effects. At the heart of the game lies a novel approach where players dive into a thrilling "scouting stage," fiercely bidding against competitors to secure units and form their ultimate teams. With these units expertly arranged within their fortress, players counter continuous monster attacks, striving to remain the last player standing.
