Free-to-play PlayStation Vita game, Samurai & Dragons, could be the start of something new.

Samurai & Dragons, as the trailer helpfully points out, has you tackling dungeons with other players for loot. This loot is then used to build your kingdom, which can form alliances with the kingdoms of other players.

The free download version of Samurai & Dragons will be released on March 29th. The retail version will follow a month later on April 26th.
