Versus Evil have announced the release date for the Nintendo Switch and Xbox One versions of Abrakam SA’s digital card game, Faeria.
Faeria originally released in March 2017 as a free-to-play game, but later switched to a $24.99 upfront cost, with regular paid expansion packs. The game is notable for being a blend of card and board game, where players build the map as they play, and then move their creatures around the board to get to their opponent.
As a special “thank you” to Switch owners, players will be able to get the Premium Edition and select DLCs for free with every purchase for a limited time. You can find a pair of release date trailers for the game below.
You can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below.
With its unique living board, Faeria will challenge you with truly strategic card battles. Craft your deck, shape the battlefield, and fight for victory!
