Aksys Games is giving strategy fans plenty to look forward to this holiday season. The publisher has announced that C.A.R.D.S. RPG: The Misty Battlefield – Total Warfare Edition will launch physically for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch on December 4, 2025. This definitive version of the roguelike SRPG deckbuilder comes bundled with all DLC and updates for just $39.99.
The Ultimate Tactical Deckbuilder Experience
C.A.R.D.S. RPG: The Misty Battlefield blends roguelike-style deckbuilding with strategic SRPG combat. Players can craft powerful decks from over 100 unique cards, each featuring distinct tactical abilities. Battles unfold on grid-based battlefields, where success depends on adapting strategies to enemy types and ever-changing environments.
The new Mini-Game Mode adds even more replayability, letting players control a single unit across a limited-turn map filled with upgrades, battles, and critical decisions. Every route taken and card chosen can mean the difference between victory and defeat.
A Dark War-Torn Fantasy
The story of C.A.R.D.S. RPG takes place during the 100 Years’ War, a devastating conflict between 17 nations. Amid the chaos, the rival nation of Fahftania unleashes a horrific weapon: the Hellmuth Brigade, powered by monstrous dragon chimeras forged through cruel experiments.
Players join Captain Vel Dina and the Clausewitz Battalion as they uncover the truth behind these inhumane creations and march to stop Fahftania before the world is consumed by war.
Exclusive Units and DLC Included
The Total Warfare Edition comes packed with all previously released content, including powerful new units and starter items available from the beginning:
- Bartgreisse – Critical Hit boost and dual Steel Swords
- Vasbiard – Defense-focused loadout with Steel Shields
- Goblin – Aggressive melee fighter with Steel Swords
- Serena Artemisia – Enhanced vision, accuracy, and balanced combat stats
- Greg Ironheart – Tanky warrior with boosted HP, attack, and defense
With these reinforcements, players can expand their strategies and strengthen the Clausewitz Battalion right from the start.
