Join the Dark Side Fan Art Contest
⚠️ Spoiler warning: this news mentions the ending of Kingdom Rush 6: Genesis. If you haven't finished the campaign yet, go save Linirea first and come back later, General!
Generals, you've saved Linirea… but at the end of Genesis, a portal opened to somewhere else. Another Linirea, darker and colder, where the heroes who fought by your side have taken a very different path. The moon is high, Halloween is near, and we want to see what lurks on the other side.
Take up your brushes and give your favorite heroes a dark twist! 🖌️

The Quest
Draw your take on the dark version of a Kingdom Rush hero.
What would they look like if they had turned to darkness? Did their armor rust, their eyes turn red, their loyal pets become something worse? Each artist can submit one entry, so make it your darkest and finest work!
How to Enter
Publish your fan art on social media. Tag us at @ironhidegames and fill out the Google Form so we don't miss it: 👉 https://forms.gle/ZwJJbUkQw9X4pzBA8
Submissions are open until November 2nd. We'll reveal the winners on a livestream on November 6th.
The top 10 artists will each choose their prize: a Kingdom Rush 6: Genesis key or a mobile key with a bundle of heroes, towers and spells.
