At a time when the competition on the mobile game track is becoming more and more fierce, many products like to enhance the interest of content by inter-border linkage with some well-known IP to increase their competitiveness. Take "Glory of the King", which is very popular among young people today, it has been linked with the overseas animation IP "Saint Seiya", which has made many nostalgic players call Ye Qinghui. As of today, the king has launched a total of three Saint Seiya skins, namely the golden Sagittarius of Houyi, the golden Leo of Dharma, and the golden Aries of Zhang Liang. Let's take a look back at these three classic skins that carry many people's childhood memories.
【Houyi - Golden Sagittarius】
Sagittarius can be said to be one of the most mentioned golden robes in Saint Seiya, and the first Saint Seiya skin of the king is also Sagittarius, corresponding to the hero Houyi, launched in August 2018. This skin is designed to closely follow the three elements of constellation, shooting star and golden arrow, for example, in the display interface, when the character shoots a golden arrow, the star map of Sagittarius will unfold behind it, and there will be a flashing meteor, which is very gorgeous. In terms of skills, the character's first skill is to release meteor-like arrows to attack the enemy, the second skill is the arrow falling from the sky, and finally converging on the ground into the star map of Sagittarius, the big move is to change the original huge bird of Houyi into a golden arrow in line with the saint seiya setting, and the enemy will also appear a brilliant star map, which is very gorgeous.
【Dharma - Golden Leo】
After Sagittarius, the king chose his brother Leo as the second linkage skin, and the corresponding hero is Dharma, which was launched in March 2019. In the original book, Leo Aeolia is a saint who fights the enemy by relying on strong physical attacks, good at boxing, which is also reflected in the linkage skin, the entire skin appearance strives to restore the image of Leo's golden light, the iconic double fists have hidden lightning jumps, domineering side exposed. When the character uses a skill, it will burst forward a distance with a lightning effect, and the second skill is to hit a powerful plasma light-speed punch, accompanied by multiple thunder effects, corresponding to the handsome battle moves of Leo in the original book. It is worth mentioning that the special effect of this skin's return to the city is also very distinctive, which is a scene of a golden dragon flying in the sky.
【Zhang Liang-Golden Aries】
The third linkage skin is Zhang Liang's Golden Aries, which was launched in November 2019. In the original work, Mr. Aries Mu is the Saint Fighter of the "Aries Palace" in the zodiac of the town guard, and has a strong mental motivation. In order to highlight this setting, the king chose to combine Zhang Liang's "Spirit of Speech" magic path with Aries's mind power, and designed a series of unique skills, such as the character's one skill is Aries's classic move "Crystal Wall", which can make enemies who hit the wall stun, and the second skill is designed with three forms: noble ghost, scroll, and magic code, which will appear in order when released. It is worth mentioning that there is also a special effect of the skin returning to the city, showing the scene of Mr. Mu and the ghost of the beloved disciple repairing the Pegasus Sacred Cloak, which is in line with the original setting.
In summary, it is not difficult to see that the king takes special care of the fans of the original IP when inter-IP linkage, not only requires itself to be perfect in the audiovisual experience, but also has no ambiguity in terms of playable content, and tries to restore the original setting through various details, and strives to satisfy fans. It is expected that Glory of kings will continue to launch more wonderful linkages in the future and bring players more beautiful memories.
