When AFK meets JRPG: Mobile Legends Adventure is celebrating its 3rd anniversary with special rewards
August 19th, 2022 – On August 26th, the international server of Mobile Legends Adventure (MLA) will celebrate its 3rd anniversary. The game was launched in Japan and South Korea in 2021 and has seen huge success, as MLAquickly reached the top of the charts in the iOS & Google Play free-to-play game list in South Korea and also ranked No.1 in the dual-platform download list in Japan last year.
As in any AFK (“away from keyboard”) or IDLE game on mobile, players can play or stop whenever they want without it affecting the progress of the game. While some AFK game developers attract players through uninterrupted rewards, some others put efforts in art style, such as the representative glass-painting style. But what if a game combines both JRPG and AFK?

Mobile Legends: Adventure (MLA) is a mobile idle RPG featuring Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) heroes and their adventure in the Land of Dawn. Play as an imperial commander, recruit your favorite heroes, form your own squad, and venture to all corners of the Land of Dawn, but this time in a typical Japanese magical anime style. Compared with other AFK games, MLA puts its emphasis on the advancement of the plot. JRPGs have a strong sense of substitution and players are often moved by the plot, unconsciously identifying to their role in the game. The main storyline of MLA is also developed through character dialogues and cutscenes, and each character is designed with high-quality ultimate skill animations. In terms of gameplay, its main routine is card turn-based combat, but there are also several light strategy quests, such as classic dungeon exploration and mazes.

MLA’s storyline continues some of MLBB’s popular characters stories, such as Esmeralda's different bond stories with Alice and Lunox, but there are also many original element heroes. Different themed heroes will be set for each season, such as Tokinibara, a female samurai who lost an eye in the fight with the Onmyoji, which will be released in the latest S8 season.

As an idle game, MLA provides a more humane long-term gameplay experience. It's non-grindy, playing for about 5-10 minutes is enough to complete the daily quests. The core feature of the game is idle play, yet levelling-up doesn't equal pay-to-win: even if the player does not operate, the team in the game will continue to fight and grow at the current adventure level. Your heroes are auto-collecting rewards for you while you sleep, work, or play other games, so you don’t need to grind for resources to level up your heroes. In MLA, there is a unique One-tap level-up system, you don’t need to spend resources on each new hero you summon. Instead, you can put 5 of your highest-level heroes in the Holy Sanctuary, then put your new heroes in the slots available to instantly raise them to the same level as your strongest heroes.
The R&D team pays great attention to players' opinions on gameplay and characters. For example, this July the game developers turned Clara, who originally appeared in the store as a signboard, into an official hero with well-designed skills and a more refined image as she was deeply loved by players. In addition, popular male mage Valir has also been designed in different art stages, reflecting the intentions of the art team. Finally, the highly-requested Tinted Mirage gameplay event will also return this time.
