About Regulus: The Advent
Regulus: The Advent is a real-time strategy RPG developed by Jumbo Jumps in partnership with TV Tokyo Corporation. Set in a fictional Demon Realm, the game follows cadets at a military academy tasked with battling the Vespers, mysterious entities corrupting the universe. Released on October 15, 2025, it runs on Android and iOS. The game blends base-building, unit management, and tactical combat. Players command a squad of demon cadets, recruiting, training, and deploying them in real-time battles. Multiplayer modes let you team up with others or compete against rivals. Its mix of base management and strategic combat makes it a mobile-focused RPG for fans of planning and action.
Gameplay
In Regulus: The Advent, you spend most sessions managing a military academy’s resources while preparing for real-time battles. Build barracks, train cadets, and assign them to units with unique skills like fire magic or swordplay. Combat is real-time but pauses for tactical decisions, letting you issue commands like flanking or defensive maneuvers. Missions include defending against Vesper attacks and exploring maps to gather resources. Multiplayer lets you form alliances or battle in ranked matches. Controls are touch-based, with swipes to move and taps to issue orders. The game leans into microtransactions for in-game currency but allows progression through regular play. Sessions last 15, 30 minutes, ideal for mobile gaming.
What Players Think
PlayPile users rate Regulus: The Advent 7.8/10, with 32% completing the main story. Average playtime is 18 hours, and 45% of players report “engaging” moods, while 20% call it “frustrating” due to grind-heavy progression. Critics praise the art style and unit variety but note repetitive missions. The game has 150 achievements, with 30% of players unlocking 50+ (average of 68). Mobile players appreciate the touch-friendly interface, but some complain about performance on older devices. Price is $4.99 with IAPs. Community feedback splits between those who enjoy the strategic depth and those who feel it leans too hard on monetization.
PlayPile's Take
Regulus: The Advent is a solid but uneven pick for mobile strategy fans. The real-time battles and base-building offer decent depth, though the grind and IAPs may deter some. At $4.99, it’s a low-risk purchase for players who like tactical RPGs and can tolerate mobile performance quirks. Completion rates suggest it’s more of a short-term diversion than a long-term commitment. If you want a game that mixes academy management with strategic combat and don’t mind occasional paywalls, give it a shot. Otherwise, there are better mobile RPGs with fewer grind elements.
