Press release:
PARIS (Oct. 24, 2025) .
The Paris-based (France) indie games publisher The Arcade Crew (“The Last Spell”, “Infernax”, “Blazing Chrome”) and San Diego-based (CA, the US) indie games developer Tako Boy Studios LLC, are today very happy and excited to announce that the full version (v1.0) of their RPG deckbuilder “Cross Blitz”, is coming to PC via Steam on November 24th.

“Cross Blitz” will cost €22.99 on Steam as it closes in on its voyage to 1.0.

Since setting sail on Steam Early Access in November 2023, Cross Blitz has added a hearty cast of characters, cards and challenges. Cast your eyes on today’s trailer to dive into the adventures that await in Cross Blitz on its 1.0 launch:

Heartfelt adventure meets fierce, strategic battles in Cross Blitz. Join a memorable cast of five protagonists, guiding them through tense conflicts and treasure-doling discoveries throughout their multi-hour journeys in the Fables story mode. Ally with Seto, a small but fierce martial artist warrior who is on a journey to find his master, or aid Quill in his high-stakes heists as he fights to provide for his struggling family and bring justice to the common folk. Keep your eyes peeled, as a new crew member will be joining the fray soon.

During each hero’s adventure, you’ll explore a variety of distinct locations and meet a wide array of colorful characters, all while unlocking a wealth of new cards, abilities and relics. Use your treasure trove of strategic tools to craft the perfect deck that suits your preferred playstyle.

Test your strategic wit in the Tusk Tales roguelite mode and chart a course through the peculiar regions of Cross Blitz. However, no one path will ever be the same, making adaptation the key to survival. Purchase and equip powerful trinkets to boost the strength of your curated deck, rally a crew of trusty mercenaries and prepare to face off against foes that grow fiercer with every battle.

Cross Blitz features:

Deep Deckbuilding Strategy: Build unstoppable decks from more than 500 cards, customizing and perfecting strategies to fit different playstyles across 5 factions
Thrilling Adventure: Enjoy 60+ hours of adventures across five different storylines as our heroes face a variety of trials and tribulations in the Fables story mode.
