Deck of Ashes

Buka Entertainment and AYGames have announced the console release date for their roguelite deckbuilder Deck of Ashes.

Deck of Ashes is currently available on Windows PC and Mac (both via Steam), and will be coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in Q2 2021. Deck of Ashes is a story-driven, deckbuilding roguelite where players lead a band of outcasts to redemption in a dying and cursed fantasy world.


The console version will include Sybil the Dark Soul, an elven archer that acts as the game’s 5th playable character. Sybil will be a timed exclusive for the console release. You can read more here, and find a new gameplay trailer below.

You can find the rundown (via Steam) below:

“The Outcasts brought Ash Curse upon us all, and they are the only ones who can lift it.” – Ash Master.

Deck of Ashes is an adventure game with tactical card combat. One character at a time, lead the cast of antiheroes on a quest for redemption. Explore the cursed fantasy world and hunt down powerful cards. Put your survival and resource management skills to the test when upgrading your Camp of allies.

The choices that drive your journey – where to go, which resource to collect, which risk to take, and which card to craft – are the difference between success and untimely demise.
