Launching worldwide this fall
Did you know last year the worldwide gaming industry hit $91 billion? Did you also know of that, 24% came from smartphones? $22 billion dollars from the mobile market, a number expected to increase to nearly $27 billion this year in a forecast made before the announcement of Super Mario Run. No wonder Square-Enix is so heavily invested in these things.
Yesterday, the gaming giant announced its latest foray into the mobile market with Guardian Codex. This free-to-play RPG casts you in the role of a Resistance soldier trying to bring down the Empire. To do so, you’ll journey into a digital world called Codex in search of ancient Guardians and attempt to bring them back into the real world. You can take this journey alone or with up to three other players.
Guardian Codex is set to launch worldwide this fall on both iOS and Android. You can preregister for the game right now, and the more people who do, the more free credits they’ll receive when it’s released. If 100,000 people preregister, they’ll receive a Guardian for free.
