Press release:
June 24th, 2021.
The time is upon us, Commandants. Starting today and continuing until launch, Kuro Game invites all Android and iOS players to pre-register to play “Punishing: Gray Raven“. Prepare to dive into a dark cyberpunk world overrun by deadly Corrupted robots in this ultra-stylish hack n’ slash action-RPG.
Unravel a deep visual novel-style story, master a complex combo-driven arcade combat engine and recruit humanity’s strongest cyborg soldiers to join the Gray Raven unit.
Pre-registration is available on the official Punishing: Gray Raven site, Google Play and Apple Store – click here for more details. All players that sign up will be granted the choice of one of five high-tier character variants to add to their squad, and everyone that signs up increases the progress bar on the Reclaim The Earth pre-registration campaign. The more that join, the greater the reward that goes out to all pre-registered players at launch.
Punishing: Gray Raven launches in mid July, and we will be announcing a final release date very soon. For now, gear up and get ready; there’s a robot army out there, and they’re not going to decommission themselves.
We’ll soon announce a date for a short closed beta test for Apple devices, but pre-registration is open for both iOS and Android players, so sign up, claim your rewards early and support your fellow Commandants. Stay tuned and follow Punishing: Gray Raven on Twitter, Facebook or our official Discord channel for news on when that begins.
