Wild Blood is Gameloft’s 2012 mobile action game that recasts Arthurian characters as a dark fantasy conflict. Players take the role of Lancelot in a third-person sword-fighting adventure; contemporary previews highlighted combo combat and striking 3D visuals, and GamesBeat identified its engine as Unreal Engine 3. Those descriptions come from period coverage, not a new hands-on assessment.

What is Wild Blood?

Wild Blood is a Gameloft action game built around Lancelot, King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, and Morgana. Its pitch is a deliberately dramatic, demon-haunted spin on Arthurian legend, presented as a third-person mobile game rather than a retelling of the legends in a historical or scholarly sense. Contemporary coverage described it as a full 3D action RPG using Unreal Engine; GamesBeat specifically called out Unreal Engine 3 (GamesBeat; 4Gamer).

What is the story?

In the story described by GamesBeat, Lancelot’s affair with Guinevere leads Arthur to seek vengeance and ally with Morgana. Demons then threaten Arthur’s kingdom, setting Lancelot on a fight to defend it. Frandroid’s preview likewise framed the adventure around Lancelot defending Avalon from demons unleashed after Arthur discovers the affair (GamesBeat; Frandroid).

How does it play?

Period previews describe a third-person action structure, with freedom of movement through levels and sword attacks built around basic combos. Pocket Gamer reported ten long levels. That is a detail from its preview, not a claim based on a current playthrough (Pocket Gamer; GamesBeat).

Is it like God of War or Infinity Blade?

Pocket Gamer used God of War as a reference for the game’s broad action feel, while distinguishing its movement and combat approach from an Infinity Blade-style design. These are contemporary preview comparisons, not a definitive genre classification or an independent verdict on how the games compare. The useful distinction in that coverage is that Wild Blood was presented as a third-person game with movement through levels and combo-based melee (Pocket Gamer).

What was the engine—and why did previews emphasize it?

Contemporary coverage called Wild Blood Gameloft’s first game using Unreal Engine. GamesBeat specified Unreal Engine 3, while 4Gamer described it as a full 3D action RPG using Unreal Engine. The engine was part of the game’s presentation pitch: Gameloft France’s digital marketing manager Hugues Ossart described it as the company’s first premium AAA title using Unreal for 3D visuals and special effects. That is a translated summary of his French statement, not a verbatim English quote (GamesBeat; 4Gamer; Frandroid).

Platforms and release history

Wild Blood launched on iOS in 2012. 4Gamer reported its Japanese iOS release on September 6, 2012, at a launch price of 600 yen, and said an Android release was expected later that month. That price is specific to the Japanese launch, not a current price or a global one. Historical coverage lists iOS and Android, but does not establish whether the game is currently available or compatible with present-day devices (4Gamer; Pocket Gamer).
