Press release:
Supercombo has revealed all-new trailers for upcoming open-world deck-building roguelike “Arcanium” (the game is coming to Steam in Q4 2019).

The latest trailers give players a glimpse at the cinematic beauty the title has to offer as well as gameplay which highlights the newly added features which opens the world of Arzu and looks to challenge players in all-new ways.

As a high-fantasy title, Arcanium features 25 anthropomorphic characters each with their own unique characteristics and attributes. In Arcanium players will choose a party of three heroes and begin their run. A run consists of four chapters that take players across the continent of Arzu.

Each chapter concludes in Epic World Events that randomly appear on the map and offer challenging boss battles or scenarios. Departing from the linear progression of traditional roguelike titles, the all-new open-world system gives players the freedom to choose where their journey takes them.

“Players are not locked into the province where they start their journey, but can roam freely between all available provinces.” Said Remi Marchand, co-founder, and CEO of Supercombo.

“We wanted to create the perfect blend of Roguelike card game and RPG, and we think that tearing down the borders really gives players a sense of the scale of the world. There are more nodes than you can ever visit during a run. Carefully planning a specific route that will reward your squad with the optimal artifact build, is the key to victory.”

Supercombo has also created a unique quest system for players. Quests challenge players to complete a variety of tasks and will reward them with loot chests.

Additionally, players are able to pick up quests at any capital cities’ quest board, which will result in fighting ‘wanted’ elite foes and traveling to far off lands. Exploring the continent is made possible by fast-traveling between two harbors or between two capital cities.

Supercombo will be launching Arcanium later this year. For more information on Arcanium visit the official website here or join the official Discord.

Arcanium presents players with a unique and challenging real-time Roguelike Deck-building RPG and will be heading onto Steam Early Acess later this year.
