A stand-alone, base management game, Godzilla Defense Force lets players defend large and populated cities including New York, Tokyo, London and Sydney against gigantic beasts. Kaiju from across the Godzilla series are on the move, and it’s up to players to recruit these powerful beasts to save the world! Defeated Kaiju can be collected as KaijuCards, which can then be used as Skills or Buffs in various stages.
Players can defeat and collect Kaiju Cards to unlock the Codex, which contains detailed descriptions of all the Kaiju alongside images from their respective movies. When players are not defending their city, forces are bolstered through lunar colonization and even a time-traveling mechanic.
“Nexon is the perfect gaming partner to capture the power and personality of Godzilla and its years of rich history and lore in Godzilla Defense Force,” said Emi Haraguchi, Licensing Manager at Toho. “Fans will become nostalgic when they can interact with the weapons, vehicles and characters seen in the iconic Toho’s Godzilla films.”
“Godzilla Defense Force weaves Toho’s Godzilla series with a fantastic blend of card and defense building mechanics to create unique mobile experience that reflects the heart of the franchise,” said Jaeho Hwang, Director of Neople Studio 42.
Godzilla Defense Force is available now on Android and iOS and is free to play, with microtransactions.
