Players assemble a squad of misfit mercenaries in The Collectables and command each
soldier through fast-paced third-person tactical combat scenarios. As the action
intensifies, they'll upgrade their crews using a collecting card system that unlocks new
ways to wipe out the varied enemy types and negotiate the game's immersive 3D
environments.
"As a pioneer in the mobile space, DeNA helps to ensure that the unique, action-packed
experience we've created in The Collectables reaches as many players as possible through
their groundbreaking Mobage platform," said Kristoffer Waardahl, studio manager at Crytek
Budapest.
"Crytek managed to do the unthinkable and integrate their remarkable CRYENGINE
technology into the company's first free-to-play mobile game," said Barry Dorf, head of
strategic partnerships at DeNA. "The Collectables is a visually stunning and explosive
gameplay experience that pushes the boundaries of what can be achieved on mobile devices."
