Fantasy Flight Games Announces X-MEN: MUTANT INSURRECTION Card Game
Fantasy Flight Games recently revealed a new board game that I think many of us are going to be hyped for: X-Men: Mutant Insurrection. The game comes from designers Richard Launius and Brandon Perdue and features “a fast-paced, cooperative, dice-driven card game” for fans to enjoy. Up to 6 players can work together to take on impossible missions and save the world. We’ll be able to create custom teams of mutants with Wolverine, X-23, Rogue, and so many more.
Designed by Richard Launius and Brandon Perdue, X-Men: Mutant Insurrection invites you to travel across the globe on death-defying missions to recruit new mutants, capture criminals, protect innocent lives, and battle against some of the most iconic X-Men villains. You’ll build a team of mutants, with characters like Rogue, Wolverine, and Storm joining forces with Shadowcat, Magik, and Forge. Eight distinct scenarios await, each with their own challenges, and each leading to a no-holds-barred showdown against villains like Magneto, Dark Phoenix, or the Hellfire Club. The Blackbird is ready to launch—join your team and fight for the future!
At the start of each game, you’ll select a deadly threat to face such as Magneto or the Phoenix Force. You’ll start things with a plot card and the corresponding story cards. Players start each round on board the lightning fast Blackbird jet which allows you to get to various missions to complete and move closer to the final showdown. You’ll need to pay attention though as each mission has unique requirements.
You can find more information about the gameplay on the official announcement and pre-orders are live now. X-Men: Mutant Insurrection is set to launch in Q4 2020 for $54.95.
