DeNA’s FPS game The Drowning will finally be launching onto Android soon

DeNA’s latest big hit game The Drowning has been out on iOS for a short period of time now and while the game itself has received a lot of high praises, the free-to-play the game comes with seems to be a bit of a hot topic of discussion. You may remember us talking about this game when it was first announced back in December of last year where it was officially confirmed for iOS but we hit up Ben Cousins on Twitter to get confirmation that it would also be arriving for Android as well.

Well it seems that The Drowning is finally going to be arriving onto Android sometime in the very near future. This game is developed by Scattered Entertainment which is a game development studio made up of ex-EA DICE team members. For those of you not familiar with this game, The Drowning is a high-end FPS game where you’ll be doing plenty of monster killing.

The game is also getting its first big raid event this month as well called the Toxic Beast Hunt. Starting today and running until August 14th, this raid mission will have players teaming up, working together in an asynchronous fashion, to take down a big monster. Prizes include things like rare weapons and equipment.

It’s really exciting to continue the momentum of our worldwide launch with our very first live gameplay event called the Toxic Beast Hunt. This is another real first for a mobile FPS – adding variety to the game in the form of a weeklong competition where our players worldwide get matched up to co-operate and compete to hunt and take down rare and powerful monsters hidden across our game world. – Ben Cousins, Scattered Entertainment

Unfortunately, since this event is running this week, that means Android gamers won’t be able to partake in it. The good news is that there will be plenty more events like this to participate in. We will be sure to post an update when the game actually goes live on Google Play.
