Arcade never dies! Arcade game veterans International Games System Ltd. (IGS) and Publisher GAMESinFLAMES UG (GiF) add lots of new content to their side-scrolling, stage-based beat ’em up Knights of Valour.
The game has shown great success since its release in early 2017; the most recent game patch includes new systems as well as a heroic new character.
The brand-new “Mercenary” feature allows players to recruit and summon mercenaries which support them in battle and provide reusable effects throughout different game stages. They can even be leveled up to increase their power and usability. Mercenaries come in three different archetypes: Attack, Defense and Support as well as their own unique skills and abilities based on their type.
Secondly, the Wishing System provides players with the opportunity to plea a wish to the mighty Dragon God in exchange for useful mercenaries, various weapons and equipment.
Last but not least, the Exchange System is a way of getting more out of each event stage. In upcoming events players will now be able to collect an additional kind of currency. This new event currency can then be exchanged for items, wishing tickets or other materials and equipment. Exchanges are only possible during an active event, and the pool of tradeable items is updated for each event.
Knights of Valour offers a variety of playable characters that are divided into three groups: power, speed and skill. The latest addition to these Knights is Sun ShangXiang, the Leaping Sparrow, a speed-type character with an affinity for aerial attacks. The inclusion of this new character was decided by means of a player voting via Facebook. Through the release of the latest game patch, Sun ShangXiang can now be unlocked as a 21-day login reward.
Knights of Valour is available exclusively for PlayStation®4 and is can be downloaded free of charge from the PlayStation Store. For more information, visit http://www.kov-game.com/
