About Protect the King
Protect the King is an officially licensed co-op wave survival game on Roblox set in the Hyborian Age of the Conan the Barbarian universe, developed by Funcomofficial in partnership with Conan Properties International. Backed by the creators of Conan Exiles, it is one of the few AAA brand crossovers on the platform. Launched February 2024, it has surpassed 57 million visits with active development continuing through April 2026.
Players defend a king against relentless monster hordes in full co-op with up to 50 players per server. The threat driving the invasions is Shuma-Gorath, whose awakening sends waves of enemies across the Hyborian lands. Between waves, players invest earned Gold into gear and character upgrades to survive deeper into escalating difficulty:
- βοΈ Survive escalating monster waves with up to 50 co-op players across Hyborian Age environments
- π Level up your character between waves and upgrade weapons and armor for harder tiers
- π° Earn Gold from defeating enemies and spend it on gear upgrades that raise damage and survivability
- πΊοΈ Battle across multiple maps including River difficulty variants - Easy, Medium, and Hard
- β³ Seasonal events and ongoing content updates from the Funcomofficial development team
- π The Ironmarked gamepass (349 R$) provides premium benefits for dedicated Conan fans
Waves escalate in difficulty as each run progresses, with boss-tier threats drawn from Hyborian mythology eventually overwhelming underprepared or disorganized teams. Better-equipped players survive deeper into wave runs, making Gold management the real meta-game beneath the wave-slaying surface.
Among co-op survival games on Roblox, Protect the King holds a distinct position as one of the few experiences built around an officially licensed AAA IP, with a lore-faithful setting and active Funcom developer support.
