Stylish action RPG for mobile
Punishing: Gray Raven is a free action game for mobile devices developed by KURO TECHNOLOGY. It is an action RPG that mixes fast-paced combat with impressive visuals and highly stylized characters. Players will take control of a squad and take part in real-time battles, and allow for seamless switching between members.
Similar to Honkai Impact 3rd, Punishing: Gray Raven draws inspiration from anime for its character designs and styling. The result is a mix of 2D and 3D art styles that fans of the genre will like and appreciate, all wrapped up in a post-apocalyptic sci-fi setting.
What is Punishing: Gray Raven about?
Punishing: Gray Raven is set in a post-apocalyptic world in the distant future. The world was overrun and has been conquered by the Corrupted, a robotic army that has been infected and twisted by a biomechanical virus — The Punishing. The last remaining human survivors have fled into orbit, aboard the space station Babylonia. You will take charge of the Gray Raven, a special forces unit, to reclaim your home planet.
Combat is where Gray Raven truly shines. You lead a squad of members with their own unique abilities and strengths that you can take advantage of during battles. It allows you to seamlessly switch among them and control each one in real-time. Attack, parry, and form a strategy to defeat your enemies swiftly and efficiently. You can even perform combos via the match 3 ability system to deal more devastating damage.
Punishing: Gray Raven employs a familiar gacha system that allows players to unlock and collect characters based on an RNG (random number generation) system. Purchases using in-game currency are also available to improve their chances. Before you try the game out, do know that there is an ongoing disparity among servers regarding rewards and achievements, which, depending on the server, can be quite a difference in overall player experience.
Polished and a lot of fun to play
Overall, if you're a fan of games such as Honkai Impact or Nier Reincarnation, and you're looking for a new game in the same vein, give Punishing: Gray Raven a shot. It features a similar stylish art style as those games, along with the same fun and fast-paced gameplay. Plus, the gacha system in place isn't too bad, either. Highly recommended.
