The player has to defeat dozens of challenging bosses for loot, experience, and special rewards for champions. In RAID: Shadow Legends you can find battles with other players to unlock special equipment and climb the rankings in intense arena battles.
As the game was introduced in 2018, its visual identity hasn’t changed much throughout the years. The logo, created in 2018 is still in use by the company and already became instantly recognizable all over the globe, being synonymous with a very special and interesting experience.
The logo is composed of two wordmark’s placed one under another on a black or white background. The upper line features a stylized “Raid” in the uppercase, cut diagonally through the whole inscription, with a line, resembling a sword cut.
The bottom line is also set in all capitals, but uses a more classic square font and shows the “Shadow Legends” lettering in a gradient orange-gold.

As for the background, it is whether black or white, which creates a sense of power and timelessness and also evokes a very strong feeling of brutality and masculinity.
The custom font of the logo is all about straight lines and distinct angles. Stable confident figures of the letters look powerful and sharp, and small design elements (as the sword cut and elongated lines of some letter in “RAID”) only elevate this feeling.
For its icon, RAID: Shadow Legends online game uses several options. Apart from the main logotype, added to the bottom line of colorful emblems with game heroes depicted on circular or square medallions and enclosed into thick bright frames, there are also versions with no lettering at all.
