On August 13, 2026, Legend of Three Kingdoms: Strategizing the Nine Kingdoms, a Three Kingdoms strategy mobile game independently developed by Rastar Games under an official IP license from UserJoy Technology and published locally by UserJoy Technology, launched in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, China. The game attracted more than 600,000 pre-registrations before its open beta launch. Upon release, it received prominent placement on the App Store Today page and recommendations across multiple themed features. It subsequently topped the free game charts on both the App Store and Google Play in these markets and entered the top 10 of the App Store's strategy game grossing chart.


The Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan version places a strong emphasis on localization. Rastar Games partnered with the well-known Taiwanese restaurant brand Formosa Chang for a cross-industry collaboration, featuring Zhang Fei, the formidable Shu Han general, as the campaign's central visual. The collaboration brings together the heroes of the Three Kingdoms and a beloved Taiwanese culinary classic in a fresh and engaging way.
Rastar Games and UserJoy Technology have a long-standing partnership. In 2016, the two companies entered into a strategic cooperation agreement under which Rastar Games obtained the global adaptation, publishing and operation rights for the major IP Legend of Three Kingdoms. Building on this partnership, Rastar Games independently developed the strategy mobile game Legend of Three Kingdoms: Works of King and successfully expanded its operations globally, generating cumulative gross receipts of more than RMB 6.6 billion.
As another major collaboration with UserJoy Technology, Legend of Three Kingdoms: Strategizing the Nine Kingdoms features realistic real-time strategy gameplay, allowing players to deploy and command troops freely and exercise a high degree of control over the battlefield. The game entered open beta across all platforms in Mainland China on October 11, 2025. It has ranked among the leading titles on major platforms, including Huawei, Tencent MyApp, Honor, Xiaomi, OPPO, vivo, Bilibili and 9Game, and has received multiple industry honors.

Rastar Games has established an integrated business ecosystem covering game development, global publishing and operational services. Its honors include National Key Cultural Export Enterprise, National High-Tech Enterprise and a place among the Top 20 Game Companies in Guangdong. As a leading game developer, publisher and operations platform, Rastar Games is guided by the philosophy of 'Make Happiness Everywhere' and has developed two strong product categories in its niche markets: classical-style strategy games and idle games.
Looking ahead, Rastar Games will continue to pursue its strategic approach of 'product serialization, market internationalization, and publishing branding.' It will actively foster and develop new quality productive forces, expand its portfolio of high-quality IPs, and launch more games that embody mainstream values and positive energy, with the aim of providing global users with higher-quality content and richer cultural and entertainment experiences.
