'Deck of Ashes' Gets Release Date - Trailer

Deck of Ashes is a procedurally-generated story-driven deck-building turn-based RPG with a unique twist: players must explore the world as they track down powerful cards in order to forge a powerful Battle Deck.

There is an ancient evil lurking in the shadows — one that only you can rid the world of!

After battling an ever-more challenging succession of foes, players will use their deck to battle the ultimate evil and dispel the Ash Curse. Be careful, though, as losing a battle means having to start fresh! 

In Deck of Ashes, players will find themselves scouring a grim fantasy world in search of combat cards, supplies, and other resources - all while battling against some of the vilest beasts the cursed land has to offer. While collecting cards to outfit their deck with a band of ruthless antiheroes, players will choose their champion — each of whom has a unique card deck — and take on the world, one intense encounter after another.

After two and a half years in development, Deck of Ashes is releasing on PC/macOS (Steam) on June 9, 2020.

Deck of Ashes opened Early Access to the game last year, in April, driving thousands of downloads on Steam.

"Deck of Ashes has been in development for two and a half years, and every month since the early access, we have supplemented the game with new content, new characters, monsters, events, balanced," says Oleg Vasilyev, head of AY Games. "We are sincerely grateful to the players who have supported us, shared their impressions, advice, and recommendations, some of which we managed to implement in the Deck of Ashes. Without your support, it would be much more difficult to work on the game. Now the project is at the finish line, and our whole team hopes that the players will enjoy the full history of our world!"

Starting June 9th, Deck of Ashes’ Day 1 Edition will be available on Steam for the first two weeks only at $19,99. It will offer early birds the bombastic pack of exclusive content that includes expanded digital artbook, HD-wallpapers, all existing skins for main characters, and a wholehearted “Thank you” from the Dev team.

Key Features:

  • Build Power-Fueled Decks: Test your wit and your strategic mettle with powerful Battle Decks, each crafted with unique combat cards that deal staggering combos and unforgiving effects
  • Eerily Wonderful Environments: Explore and navigate a completely hand-drawn cursed landscape with dangers lurking in every shadow
  • A Biome (and Monster) for Every Occasion: Discover unique biomes, each harboring different monster types

Deck of Ashes will be available for PC/macOS (Steam) on June 9, 2020.
