a natural fit for a competitive card game, and we’re thrilled to bring
the game to RWBY’s passionate fan-base.”
RWBY Deckbuilding Game is a new digital card game set in the world of
Remnant, bringing the characters of RWBY to life. Players battle with
fan-favorites Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang, Jaune, Nora, Pyrrha, or Ren as
they upgrade decks for victory.
-
Players build their decks as they play by buying cards from a shared
pool to create powerful synergies and conquer their opponents and
powerful in-game bosses. -
Play against the AI or with up to three friends in Quick Match or
invite only games. -
Unlock Relic Adventure mode which allows players to challenge the AI
to defeat the diabolical boss and win the Relic frame version of their
cards. -
Purchase Raids that offer players the opportunity to team up with
friends or other players to take down mighty villains and earn
incredible rewards
“I’m so excited for RWBY fans to play this game and experience RWBY in a
whole new way,” said Kerry Shawcross, writer/director of RWBY. “The RWBY
Deckbuilding Game gives RWBY fans a new way to experience the world of
Remnant.”
In a world filled with horrific monsters bent on death and destruction,
humanity’s hope lies with four huntresses, Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee,
Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long. Though each may be powerful on
their own, these four girls must overcome dark forces and work as a team
if they truly hope to become the next generation of Remnant’s
protectors. RWBY is the first western-style anime to be distributed in
Japan and is produced by Rooster Teeth in Austin, Texas.
RWBY Deckbuilding Game is available now for free on Steam
