King's Bounty: The Legend (Russian: King's Bounty: Легенда о рыцаре) is a tactical role-playing video game developed by Russian studio Katauri Interactive and published by 1C Company for Microsoft Windows in 2008 and Mac OS X in 2012. The game is based upon the King's Bounty property released by New World Computing in 1990, and blends elements of the original game with a modernized interface and gameplay elements. The game's story sees players taking on the role of a special treasure hunter for a king, who soon becomes embroiled on a quest to save their daughter and prevent their world from being destroyed.

Since its release, the game has received favourable reviews, and received a number of sequels using the same engine. These include King's Bounty: Armored Princess, King's Bounty: Crossworlds, King's Bounty: Warriors of the North, and King's Bounty: Dark Side. A sequel in a new engine, King's Bounty II, was released in August 2021.
