Ever since The Dragon Prince launched back in 2018, it was said that there was a game being planned set in the extensive lore of Xadia.
Now the co-op action RPG is here with The Dragon Prince: Xadia, and it’s available to play on Netflix. Check this out:
Welcome to Xadia! Step into the boots of your favorite The Dragon Prince heroes and team-up for all-new, epic adventures in this co-op action RPG!
Besides being able to play as the series main heroes like Rayla, Callum, and Soren, it looks like you’ll also be able to play as villains like Viren and Claudia.
With Xadia also built up of different factions of humans and elves with their specific power sets and elements, it does look like Xadia the game is also going to be banking on that world-building and making it flesh out the gameplay and skill maps.
Admittedly, it was Aaron Ehasz’s work as head writer for Avatar: The Last Airbender that built the hype around The Dragon Prince, but a lot of fans weren’t immediately onboard because of the choice of aesthetic. However, the character work and worldbuilding is still great, and a game based on the world of Xadia only seemed inevitable.
It’s like the entire show was built around being able to spinoff the series multiple ways from tabletop games to video games. Hopefully Netflix has some more ideas on where they want to take the IP next. How about a Spider-Verse-level full-length movie?
The Dragon Prince: Xadia is now available for mobile platforms via Netflix.
