Krafton quietly launches a new anime-style battle royale: Tarasona
Krafton, fresh off the cloud release of PUBG Mobile, has dropped another title into the fray. Tarasona: Battle Royale, a 3v3 isometric shooter with an anime aesthetic, is currently soft-launched for Android users in India.
This fast-paced game features three-minute matches where teams battle for victory. Simple controls and quick gameplay are its key selling points. However, the Google Play release has been relatively low-key, lacking the usual fanfare.
Tarasona's anime style is immediately apparent. The characters are vibrant, female, and sport the exaggerated armor and weaponry common in anime.
Early Impressions
Initial gameplay reveals some rough edges, though this is expected given the soft launch status. The need to stop to fire feels unusually slow-paced for a studio known for PUBG Mobile's mobile optimization.
Further updates and news on Tarasona's development are anticipated. Hopefully, we'll see increased momentum and expansion to new regions in the coming months.
