Pepp Heroes: Relic Quest — Android banner (Com2uS)
Looking for a fresh Android RPG that combines real-time combat, stunning 2.5D visuals and a deep hero collection system? Pepp Heroes Relic Quest on Android just launched in soft launch on April 28, 2026 across the US, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines. Developed by Com2uS — the studio behind Summoners War and Soul Strike — Pepp Heroes is a team-based collection RPG with 8-player real-time battles, 50+ heroes to collect, 4 classes, 8 jobs and over 150 side quests. In this guide, we break down everything you need to know: our first impressions, all classes and jobs explained, best heroes to pull, and tips to get started fast.
What is Pepp Heroes Relic Quest on Android?
Pepp Heroes: Relic Quest is a team-based collection RPG developed by Com2uS. The game uses a distinctive 2.5D visual style — a blend of 3D depth and 2D charm that gives it a look reminiscent of Octopath Traveler but with brighter, more vibrant colors. You control a central protagonist and recruit up to 4 heroes from a roster of 50+ characters to fight alongside you across a vast, monster-filled world.
What makes it stand out from other mobile RPGs is its vertical one-handed control scheme: the entire game is designed to be played with a single thumb, making it perfect for commuting or short sessions. Combat is real-time — your heroes auto-attack enemies in range while you handle positioning and skill activations. The game is currently in soft launch and moving toward a full global release.

8-player real-time combat — Pepp Heroes Relic Quest
All classes & jobs explained
Your protagonist’s build is defined by two choices: a Class (broad archetype) and a Job (specialization within that class). Here is a full breakdown of the system with our recommendations:
| Class |
Playstyle |
Best for |
Gamekaire pick |
| Warrior | Melee tank + frontline DPS | Beginners, boss raids, frontline pressure | ✅ Best starter — tanky, forgiving, always useful |
| Wizard | Long-range AoE magic damage | Mob clearing, 8-player co-op, side quests | Strong for farming content at any stage |
| Ranger | Mobile ranged DPS + burst | PvP (Treasure Island), boss burst windows | High skill ceiling — rewarding for experienced players |
| Cleric | Support + healing | Co-op raids, keeping team alive in hard content | Niche but invaluable in 8-player boss modes |
💡 Which class to pick as a beginner?
Start with Warrior — it’s the most forgiving class for new players. You can absorb damage while learning enemy patterns, and it pairs well with any hero composition. Once you’re comfortable with the combat system, Wizard is the most efficient class for clearing the 150+ side quests quickly thanks to its AoE damage. Ranger is the strongest in PvP but demands good positioning and timing. Cleric is best saved for players who enjoy a support role in co-op content.
Remember: you pick one of 8 jobs on top of your class. Jobs further specialize your protagonist’s stats and skills. Experiment freely — the game lets you adjust your build as you progress through the content.

Essential tips to get started fast
⚡ Beginner tips — launch week guide
1
Grab the soft launch login rewards — Com2uS is running special check-in events during the soft launch. Log in daily to claim free rewards including hero upgrade materials for Karbel (SR Hero).
2
Fill all 4 hero slots immediately — Even low-rarity heroes contribute meaningful auto-attack damage. Never go into a dungeon with empty slots, especially early on.
3
Prioritize SSR heroes when summoning — With 20+ SSR heroes in the pool, focus your summons on SSR-rated characters. They have significantly higher base stats and skill effects than SR or R tier.
4
Use one-handed mode to your advantage — The vertical format is designed for fluid thumb control. Master strafing to dodge AoE attacks while your heroes auto-attack — this makes boss fights much more manageable.
5
Do side quests in parallel with the main story — With 150+ side quests available, they are your main source of gear upgrades and hero summon tickets. Don’t ignore them — they’re far less grindy than in other RPGs.
6
Join 8-player co-op as early as possible — The real-time 8-player mode gives some of the best gear drops in the game. It’s also where you learn team comp synergies that carry into late-game boss raids.
What we like — What we don’t
✅ Pros
Stunning 2.5D visuals — best looking mobile RPG from Com2uS to date
One-handed vertical controls — genuinely comfortable for mobile play
8-player real-time co-op is rare and well-executed
Deep class/job system with real build variety
Massive content volume — 150+ quests means long-term engagement
❌ Cons
Still in soft launch — expect bugs and balance changes before global release
Gacha system for SSR heroes can feel slow without spending
Familiar formula — veteran mobile RPG players may find it formulaic
Tutorial overload typical of Com2uS games — slow to open up
No global release yet — some regions still locked out
🏅 Gamekaire Verdict
7.5 / 10
Pepp Heroes: Relic Quest is shaping up to be one of the most polished mobile RPG launches of 2026. The 2.5D visuals are gorgeous, the one-handed controls feel natural, and the 8-player co-op adds a social dimension most idle RPGs completely ignore. It’s still in soft launch so rough edges remain — but if you’re in a supported region, download it now and grind through the launch events while rewards are most generous. We’ll update this review post global launch.
