Free-to-play card game Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond revealed for summer 2024
The Shadowverse series is getting ready to expand with a new game for mobile devices and PC. Cygames announced Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond as a free-to-play card battler, with a summer 2024 release planned for iOS, Android, and PC.
In the announcement overview, Cygames noted that “international language support” is planned for the new Shadowverse. While the competitive online collectible card game will be free to play, there will naturally be optional in-app purchases, so we’ll see how that balances out when it launches.
Check out the first look at the direct sequel to Shadowverse:
Players will be able to move around the world with custom avatars, interacting and battling with others they run into along the way. According to the footage, you’ll also be able to kick a giant soccer ball around, play Mahjong, and fish, among other activities. There are also events and “other content” in the works, with more details to come on everything at a later date. The battles themselves promise fresh features like super evolution and new amulet abilities.
Tournaments are already planned for 2024, including the RAGE Shadowverse Pro Tour and both in-store and online tournaments in Japan. For overseas players, there will be the Shadowverse NetEase Championship, Shadowverse Korea Open, Shadowverse Taiwan Open, and Shadowverse Open West/SEAO. There’s also a Shadowverse World Championship scheduled for early 2025, with 10 million yen and a special Shadowverse: Evolve card up for grabs. Various slots are available for qualifying through the other tournaments in Japan and other regions.
