'Spellcasters Chronicles' Is A 3v3 Action/Strategy Multiplayer Game By Quantic Dream, Playable At TwitchCon, PC Closed Beta Later This Year - Trailer

by Rainier on Oct. 16, 2025 @ 9:06 a.m. PDT

Free-to-play and team-based, Spellcasters Chronicles blends action and strategy by inviting players to command magical chaos in spectacular 3v3 battles.

Embody a mage commander and unleash chaos on the battlefield by summoning hordes of creatures and casting powerful spells in this multiplayer game where strategic play, skill, and creativity are rewarded.

Will you be a Spellcaster they fear, or one they worship?

In a unique blend of third-person action and strategic decision making, challenges players to master both movement and magic to dictate the pace of the battle. Each match is played as a 3v3, fast paced 25-minutes showdown across mystical arenas of epic scale and verticality, where teams must capture altars to gain territory and destroy their opponents’ Lifestones to claim their victory. Players will step into the fight as Spellcasters, archetype-driven mages with distinct identities, defined roles, and signature abilities, capable of summoning hordes of creatures and casting powerful spells. Infused with magic, each Spellcaster can take to the skies and fly freely across the arena at any moment in battle to command the battlefield, unlocking a level of movement freedom rarely seen in the genre.

Spellcasters Chronicles sets itself apart thanks to its strategic deck-building system. Whether players choose a support, tank, or damage dealer archetype, they will be able to choose from a list of more than 50 spells and summons, bringing tactical adaptation and creative expression into the arena. Additionally, players will also have to choose one of the world-crushingly colossal ultimate summonses, The Titans, a high-sized and powerful creature capable of shifting the tide of battle. This hybrid of archetype-driven design and customizable decks makes every match in Spellcasters Chronicles a strategic battle, rewarding experimentation and team synergy.

In addition to its competitive core, Spellcasters Chronicles will introduce a singular approach to how stories are shaped in multiplayer experiences. This community-narrative aspect of the game will be introduced in the coming months.


“We are honored and excited to introduce Spellcasters Chronicles to players today, developed in our Paris and Montreal studios, ” said David Cage, Founder and President of Quantic Dream. “Stepping into a new genre with a fresh artistic approach has been both a challenge and a source of growth, allowing us to evolve as a team. We now look forward to shaping the game further with players’ feedback and to perfecting this journey together. This project reflects the creative spirit and technical ambitions guiding Quantic Dream for nearly three decades. With Spellcasters Chronicles, we sought to bring a new form of gaming experience blending action and strategy to life, while exploring community-driven narrative. It has been an exploration of bold ideas, a chance to expand into social and multiplayer experiences, and an adventure shared by a new talented team of experts within our studios in Paris and Montreal who brought this original universe to life and are continuing to develop new experiences including Star Wars Eclipse."

Spellcasters Chronicles began as a creative experiment, an opportunity to channel our passion for storytelling into a shared, living world, ” says Gregorie Diaconu, Game Director on Spellcasters Chronicles at Quantic Dream. “While very different from our previous titles, it builds on what has always driven us: giving players the power to shape stories, this time in a collective manner. After years of development, we can’t wait to finally share the world of Spellcasters Chronicles with players. We are starting our closed beta phase with our core-loop focused on arena battles and will introduce community narrative and other elements of our macro-loop in the following months. This is just the beginning of the journey, and we are eager to listen, to learn, and to grow alongside the community. Your feedback will be invaluable in shaping and refining the experience, ensuring that the game evolves into something truly special, built hand-in-hand with those who play it.”
