AurumDust have released an Ash of Gods: The Way new demo, letting players experience more of their upcoming card-based tactical RPG sequel.

The Ash of Gods: The Way new demo was originally released as part of a previous Steam Next Fest event. AurumDust have gathered feedback from the original demo and implemented a number of changes. Some of these tweaks include rebalanced battles, completely redesigned challenges, and improved UI. Anyone interested in trying out the new demo can find it on the game’s Steam page.

You can find a rundown (via Steam) below:

Twenty years have passed since the Great War. Frisa and Berkana kingdoms have managed to forge an uneasy peace but old grievances are not forgotten and new war is inevitable.

The Frisians have groomed new and talented commanders. They did this using a secret game developed by their best strategists to teach young aristocrats tactics and the art of war. Only by proving their tactical prowess can Frisian nobles achieve respect and a high rank. This way, only the best of the best make their way into the command. And soon, Frisa will be ready to strike.

Finn, a young and talented foster-son of Eik, the Berkanan secret service master and a veteran of the old war, is sent on a dangerous mission to participate in Frisian tournaments against the best of nobility in order to stop the war before it starts by eliminating top generals on the tournament arenas.

Gather characters, items and spells, learn about factions and their skills and abilities, level them up to create strong complementary decks and to build unique strategies to surprise your opponents on the battlefield.

Ash of Gods: The Way releases in 2022 for Windows PC via Steam.
