Kingdom Rush Origins

A new Kingdom Rush Origins campaign called "Hulking Rage" will be available on Feb. 25th. The campaign will feature the Ogre forces of Gram the Beheader and two new heroes. Here's the announcement Ironhide Game Studio posted to its Facebook page:

Are you ready to face the magical Ogre forces of Gram the Beheader?

We hope so! Hulking Rage is the new Kingdom Rush Origins campaign that will pit you against all sort of nasty, big, fearsome enemies. Also, two new Heroes (a free one and a premium one).

For the Kingdom!

Kingdom Rush fans recently voted on what the new hero in the series would be. The four step process allowed players to decide on different aspects of the hero like race and sex. The final vote resulted in a Fallen Angel, who should be one of the two new heroes to appear in the next update. It is unknown if the fan voted hero will be the free or paid option.

UPDATE: The fan voted hero will not appear in the game until June.

Kingdom Rush fans who were worried that the Endless Challenge in Origins would be the final update should worry no longer. Ironhide Game Studio announced that new levels are in the works and will be released in February. Hopefully, they were referring to Kingdom Rush Origins and not the first two games.

From Facebook:

For all the Rushers asking about our next update: February is the month. With new battles, new Hero, and a whole lot of new enemies ready to put your sword to the test.

Ironhide Game Studio's popular tower defense series Kingdom Rush has had weird launch history. The original title got its start as a free flash game on Armorgames.com in 2011 and was ported to the iPad a few months later. The game was eventually released to Android devices in 2013 before it finally landed on Steam in 2014. The sequel, Kingdom Rush Frontiers, was originally released to iOS devices before making its way to Android and back to where it all started on Armor Games. Unfortunately for PC fans the third title in the series, Kingdom Rush Origins, was only released for iOS, Android and Amazon mobile devices with no plans for a PC release, but why?

Today Ironghide released an "open letter of love" explaining why there will never be a PC version of the prequel. The letter gives a detailed explanation as to why the Ironhide team chose not to release a PC version and all Kingdom Rush fans should read it in its entirety.

Call out sick and cancel your holiday plans because Five Nights at Freddy's 2 and Kingdom Rush Origins are both available on the App Store starting today. These are two of the most anticipated mobile game sequels of the year and they're already burning up the Apple app charts. Five Nights at Freddy's 2 is already the number 2 game behind its predecessor on the Top Paid iPhone chart, while Kingdom Rush Origins has just cracked the top 10 at number 9.

In Five Nights at Freddy's 2, players must return to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza as the night watchman to babysit the old animatronic characters such as Freddy Fazbear and his new friends who are equipped with the latest in facial recognition technology. This time management has supplied you with your own Freddy Fazbear head, instead of security doors, to trick the animatronic characters and keep you safe.
