Asmodee Digital Announces Blood Rage And A Game of Thrones: The Board Game – Digital Editions

Asmodee Digital, a leader in video game entertainment inspired by board games, is proud to announce two new games, Blood Rage – Digital Edition and A Game of Thrones: The Board Game – Digital Edition, which will be launched in 2020.

Blood Rage – Digital Edition: exclusive launch scheduled for 2020.

The digital adaptation of the legendary Viking board game designed by Eric M. Lang with art by Adrian Smith, developed by Exozet, will be launched on PC (Steam) in 2020. The hit board game, originally released by CMON, ranked 30th with a 8/10 rating on BoardGameGeek.

In Blood Rage – Digital Edition, each player controls a Viking clan, among seven, with its own warriors, leader, and ship. Draft the best cards and use them to get the advantage in battle. Raid lands, fulfill quests, and upgrade your units to lead your clan to victory! The original miniatures from the board game have been digitized into 3D animated units using high-res photogrammetry, leveraging more than 100 pictures for each of them.

The core gameplay is focused on combat in this tactical game. You must choose your drafted cards carefully at the beginning of each Age. Prepare your winning strategy for the game but make sure to adapt as your opponents take actions or claim allegiance to specific gods. Deduce their plan and play tactically to counter them. Winning battles is not the only way to victory, as you sometimes gain more victory points by sacrificing your troops! The only way to lose in Blood Rage is to shy away from a fight and a glorious death on the battlefield! Blood Rage is based around War and Glory. The game is played in three Ages, each ended by the Ragnarök destroying a random area and the units present. At the end of the game, the player with the most Glory Points wins.

Number of Players: solo and up to 4 players.
