Heartfelt adventure meets fierce, strategic battles in Cross Blitz’s Fables mode, releasing next month, as you’ll join a memorable cast of characters on their remarkable individual journeys. Join the fearless pirate Redcroft as he strikes a deal to win back his stolen freedom from a merciless princess, or aid the famous pop-star Violet in her search for an artifact to stop the evil escapades of a mysterious doppelganger hijacking her stardom.

During each hero's adventure, you’ll explore a variety of distinct locations and meet a wide array of colorful characters, all while unlocking a wealth of new cards, abilities and relics. Use your treasure trove of strategic tools to craft the perfect deck that suits your preferred playstyle.

In the roguelite Tusk Tales mode, face an endless challenge featuring five different playable mercenaries with seven different bosses to conquer, each with their own unique decks and relics. The challenges and possibilities in Tusk Tales are endless – with new foes, cards, trinkets and more to encounter on each randomized run. And completing a run is just the beginning, as you'll upgrade your characters to suit your preferred strategies and unlock new mercenaries with entirely unique starting cards. Shape your own adventure across randomized maps, while making important moment-to-moment choices as you craft an unstoppable deck.

Publisher The Arcade Crew and developer Tako Boy Studios announced that Cross Blitz is set to debut through Steam Early Access on November 29, 2023, and will remain so for about 14-16 months.

Set sail for thrilling adventure in today's newly released gameplay trailer, showcasing a sneak peek at the exciting stories to be found in the Fables story mode and the ever-changing challenge of the roguelite mode Tusk Tales.

“Cross Blitz is currently in an excellent state, with content including 2 heroes, each with their own playstyles and lengthy story campaigns to complete. These playstyles consist of 4 deck archetypes each, allowing for a great variety of card combos and synergies to explore with the 200 cards already available. The roguelite mode, Tusk Tales, has potentially endless replayability due to the random nature of each run. The meta-progression systems allow for constant feelings of improvement as you play, with several Mercenaries to unlock and upgrade.”

Following the debut of Cross Blitz’s Early Access release, players will acquire a wealth of new content through future updates as Tako Boy Studios continues to evolve and develop the game ahead of its full release.

“Major content additions, balance changes, and UX adjustments. The full version will have 3 additional hero campaigns (for a total of 5), a PvP multiplayer mode, and many more regions to explore in Tusk Tales, the roguelite mode. Additionally, a final unified story campaign bringing the 5 heroes together is planned as well. New cards, relics, trinkets and more will also be included as part of the content expansions outlined above. Based on what we’ve created so far, the total in-game card count for the full version will most likely be somewhere between 400-500 cards.”
