Summoners War: Legacy is a prequel comic to hit mobile RPG Summoners War that takes place 35 years prior to the game’s world-shaking events. You might remember that Legacy was first announced back in July of last year, and for those who’ve been waiting patiently, we’ve got some good news for you – it’s now slated to land in April.
