Cryptozoic Entertainment, a leader in creating tabletop games, trading cards, and collectibles, has teamed up with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products and DC to launch a Kickstarter campaign for DC Deck-Building Game: Justice League Dark.
This campaign follows last year’s successful Kickstarter for DC Deck-Building Game 10th Anniversary, which raised over $1 million. The new campaign features the latest major release in the series, a base set based on DC’s Justice League Dark comic books. Fans can also pledge for DC Deck-Building Game: Rivals – Shazam! vs. Black Adam, a two-player title featuring the iconic rivals. Additionally, there are several extra items and exclusives for fans to preorder, including two expansions for DC Deck-Building Game: Rebirth, an expansion based on the Legion of Doom, playmats, and card sleeves.
Shahriar Fouladi, Vice President of Product Development & Marketing at Cryptozoic, said:
“The last DC Deck-Building Game Kickstarter was an unforgettable experience that brought the fans who love the series together, so we are thrilled to be able to do it again this year. Basing a game on Justice League Dark gave us the opportunity to add lots of exciting new game mechanics inspired by magic and the supernatural. We are also using the fan feedback from the last campaign to offer even better stretch goals and lots of expansions. It’s going to be a fantastic 30 days for the whole community!”
DC Deck-Building Game: Justice League Dark features the supernatural DC team that handles mystical challenges too great for heroes like Superman and Batman. Players take on the roles of characters such as Wonder Woman, John Constantine, Zatanna, and Doctor Fate as they combat the threats of magical supervillains and upgrade their cards to more powerful forms. Backers can choose from two covers by talented artists: the standard cover by Ryan Benjamin, or the Kickstarter-exclusive cover by Raymond Gay.
DC Deck-Building Game: Rivals – Shazam! vs. Black Adam pits two players against each other in a magical battle between the iconic rivals. Each player has three unique character cards, each with incredible abilities and a higher cost than the previous one, making it a challenge to defeat their foe three times.
The Kickstarter campaign for the DC Deck-Building Game: Justice League has five different expansions: Legion of Doom Expansion Pack, Rebirth: One-Shot Pack 1 — Cry for Justice, Rebirth: One-Shot Pack 2 — Time Heist, Crossover Crisis Pack 1, and a new Crossover Pack that will be announced during the campaign. You can also get two Kickstarter Exclusive playmats and card sleeves. The campaign starts today and runs until July 27, with pledge tiers starting at $75. If stretch goals are unlocked, you can expect numerous additional cards and other upgrades to the products. Preorder items will be delivered to backers in April 2024. Retail releases of DC Deck-Building Game: Justice League Dark and Rivals – Shazam! vs. Black Adam will follow later.
