Back in early June, we told you about Kobojo Games' plan to combine Candy Crush-like match-3 with Hearthstone-like deck building and sprinkle in a dash of real-time strategy in their upcoming game Primal Legends, and while that sounds like an awful lot of genre-mashing, I was really excited at the prospect based on the trailer we posted. Well, we won't have long to wait to find out how this mashup turned out as the developers have announced that Primal Legends is launching on iOS and Android next Thursday, August 11th. Here's that trailer again in case you missed it back in June.
