The Ultimate Tactical Saga Reborn,
Genesis War

■ Witness the Impact of an Epic that Outlives Time... Genesis War
Genesis War is a mobile character collection RPG developed by Meerkat Games and published by LINE Games, combining strategic turn-based combat with an immersive story experience.
Based on The War of Genesis 2 from the War of Genesis series that has continued since the 1990s, the game reinterprets the original’s key characters and emotions in a modern way. While respecting the core elements of the original work, it has been refined with compositions and presentations suited for mobile environments, making it accessible to a new generation of players as well.
Additionally, Genesis War is designed so that the experience of meeting and collecting characters while following the worldview and narrative becomes the central focus of the game, rather than simply enjoying combat alone.
Pre-registration is currently underway through the Google Play Store and the App Store.





■ A Vast World and Immersive Storytelling
The journey begins with the early story from The War of Genesis 2, centered around the characters of the Dark Prince and Iyolin. Genesis War is set on the war-torn continent of Antaria, depicting in greater depth the personalities and narratives of individual heroes who fight against harsh fate, enhancing the satisfaction that narrative RPGs provide through rich text and presentation.



■ Characters Reinterpreted through Cartoon Rendering
Over 60 characters that have appeared in the War of Genesis series appear in Genesis War, with designs reinterpreted through cartoon rendering.
Character design focused on respecting the original’s traits while reimagining its lore and appeal through a more sophisticated, modern lens. In this way, fans of the series will be met with a host of new emotions strewn into the wealth of memories.
Thus, users can enjoy the game’s story while having fun encountering and acquiring diverse characters.





■ Enhanced Action and Combat Thrills!
Combat in Genesis War proceeds through “turn-based” battles. Battling in this game inherits the strategic combat concept of the original that emphasized utilizing all party members. In addition, the game implements dynamic combat animation effects and sequences befitting current trends to provide more thrilling and spectacular entertainment.
Accordingly, users playing the game can enjoy combat while also experiencing the unique effects of each character. In particular, the effects implemented when using ultimate skills—which is a characteristic of the War of Genesis series—have become even more spectacular, further increasing the fun of combat.





■ Enhanced Strategy Through Utilization of Various Character Roles
Genesis War is characterized by applying three core elements—“Role Playing”, “Class”, and “Strategy”—to character growth and combat systems.
Particularly in this title, the strategy of organizing and operating tank/dealer/healer and support role characters according to situations has been emphasized.
Along with this, “class”-ification has been applied to original characters. Each class has unique characteristics divided into three tiers, and a structure allowing various combinations through class advancement is provided.
The game’s level design has been applied to provide the fun of strategy through gameplay. This includes stage mechanics that require players to think ahead, as well as meticulously crafted compatibility and balance.
First, content has been separated and arranged considering user entry difficulty and gameplay proficiency, and levels have been designed so players can more easily enjoy the strategic combat appeal.
In this way, players can easily understand the game’s combat system through the main story, experience the thrill of gradual growth, and continue enjoying more challenging gameplay and growth through higher-tier content like the Hero’s Tomb.
