Z-Man Games Announces New Game Called CHALLENGERS Launching This Fall
Z-Man Games is home to fantastic games like Pandemic and Love Letter. Today, they’ve announced a new fast-paced card battler and deck management game called Challengers. This new game is launching this fall. In Challengers, you’ll draft character cards, build a deck, and fight in up to four simultaneous battles for seven rounds. Players compete for trophies and fans and the top two players will face off in a 1-on-1 duel to determine the ultimate champion. There’s also a solo mode for testing strategies. Sophie Gravel of Z-Man Games said:
From my first round of Challengers, I was hooked. The game is nonstop edge-of-your-seat fun. Every card placement is a high-stakes moment that could decide the battle. No two games are the same: after hundreds of rounds, players will still be learning ways to perfect their winning team of characters. And with more character decks to come, the thrill of the Challengers tournament never ends.
The team at Z-Man Games worked with 1 More Time Games to bring Challengers to life. Roman Rybiczka of 1 More Time Games shared:
When Z-Man Games offered the opportunity to refine Challengers together and release it globally, it was a dream come true. To collaborate with such an experienced team of industry leaders was an exciting and fun journey we did not want to miss. We are very proud that soon players around the world can enjoy Challengers in its best form possible.
Challengers is set to release this November with an MSRP of $39.99 in Canada, France, Germany, the U.K., and the U.S. Fans can also check out the game from October 6-9 at SPIEL ‘22 in Germany. You can find more information regarding the game below.
