NeocoreGames’ turn-based dark fantasy RPG King Arthur Legion IX is expanding its potential player base with a PS5 and Xbox Series X|S release date on the horizon.
The standalone expansion for King Arthur Knight’s Tale was previously released on PC in May 2024 but will now be released in a console-specific edition on May 16, 2025.
King Arthur Legion IX is a turn-based, character-centric tactical RPG in the King Arthur Knight’s Tale universe—a dark fantasy version of the Arthurian myth. It welcomes new players to the mythical land of Avalon with an all-new story and heroes and offers tough challenges to returning veterans.
Players will journey through a Roman-themed campaign as Gaius Julius Mento, a tribune of the undead Ninth Legion, as he discovers Avalon. From there, they’ll battle the monsters of nightmares, challenge the Pict tribes, the monstrous Fomorians, and the cunning Sídhe. Experience the might of the Old Faith and Christianity and face the knights of Sir Mordred’s Round Table through 15 handcrafted missions.
You’ll be tasked with finding, rebuilding, and protecting the remains of the only Roman colony in Avalon and choosing your path to victory. By the end of the campaign, you’ll have to decide: do you want to become a powerful demon, or will you reject the might of Emperor Sulla and restore your humanity?
You can get a taste of undead flesh and tactical action in the original Launch trailer for King Arthur Legion IX from last year.
