Press release:
July 7th, 2021.
The China-based video games publisher and game developer Kuro Game today announced with great joy and pride that their smash-hit cyberpunk/sci-fi ARPG “Punishing: Gray Raven” is coming to iOS and Android devices in the West (in full English) on July 16th, 2021.

Releasing across North America, Europe, South-East Asia and Australia on July 16th, the critically acclaimed overseas hit is just days from its global release.

Pre-registration is open now (with over 300,000 pre-registrations already confirmed) providing players with a generous bundle of resources to help tip the odds in their favour in the war to reclaim Earth.

In a grim post-apocalyptic future, humanity has been pushed to the brink. A biomechanical virus known as the Punishing has almost wiped out organic life on the planet and converted a legion of Corrupted machines into an army. Deploying from the space station Babylonia, the Gray Raven squad are the elite cyborg soldiers leading the mission to reclaim our world. You are their Commandant.

Free-to-play and designed around minimising grind, Punishing: Gray Raven features stunning graphics, frantic combo-chaining 3D arcade combat, RPG-style squad management systems and far more. Featuring a deep, dark and ongoing sci-fi story; players will slowly unravel the secrets behind the Punishing virus, and unearth truths that might have been better off staying buried.

Outside of its massive and ever-expanding story (look forward to multiple new story chapters and limited-time events by the end of 2021), Punishing: Gray Raven features online co-op scenarios for up to three players, online leaderboards for challenge stages and social features, including a dorm-management minigame. Use the spoils of war to create a home away from home, decorate it and invite your friends to visit.

Pre-registration is open for both iOS and Android players now, so sign up, claim your rewards early and support your fellow Commandants when the battle begins on July 16th.
