See what time the game will be releasing in your country:
TurnbasedFest Is Here — Kaito Returns!
Greetings Samurai,
The turnbased fest is here!
Who needs the stress of battling without taking your time and planning your turns in peace? The Turn-based fest is a celebration of these types of games, and Mahokenshi is no different.
Put yourself in the shoes of a Mahokenshi in our new Demo. Whether you want to wear the heavy armor of Kaito or sprout your wings like Ayaka, you are needed to save the celestial island of the forces of corruption.
Find out more about Kaito, our armored juggernaut, below!
Playstyle
Unlike the other Mahokenshi, Kaito prefers being surrounded by his opponents. Although he has multiple deck archetypes and synergies, most of them revolve around stacking defense.
Spikes
The best offense is a good defense. Kaito can stack Spikes, icy thorns that hurt enemy attackers, even from afar!
Charge
Kaito does not dash like other Mahokenshi. Instead, his primary movement option is to Charge towards his opponent. A Charge will allow Kaito to take the shortest possible path to his enemy, even dashing across water.
First Strike / Prepared
Some of Kaito's cards will have First Strike and Prepared effects. These cards will have different effects depending on when you play them within your turn, forcing you to think carefully about the order in which you play them.
Provoke
Charging isn't the only way to get close to enemies. With his Provoke cards, Kaito can force enemies to move into striking distance.
Play the updated demo during TurnbasedFest, and make sure you check out the event page to play some more incredible demos!
Mahokenshi Release Date Reveal Trailer!
Greetings Samurai,
As the presence of corruption grows stronger across the Celestial Islands, we need the Mahokenshi now more than ever. Thankfully, you will soon be able to take up your katana and drive back the forces of evil. We are excited to announce that Mahokenshi is releasing on January 24th!
If you're already a weathered samurai, welcome back! If this is your first time here: Mahokenshi is a unique blend of adventure, strategy, and deckbuilding gameplay. Choose the right samurai mage for every mission, build your deck out of dozens of powerful cards, and defeat the Oni King's hordes.
We're very excited to bring back our demo, this time with a brand new Mahokenshi to play. Take control of Sota from the House of Jade, who prefers to stick to the shadows and ambush his prey at the most opportune moment.
Also, this is our first demo available in English, French, Italian , German, Spanish, Chinese, Russian, Korean, Japanese, Portuguese and Polish! The translations are still in the beta stage, so if you spot any errors, please don't hesitate to let us know.
Available During Paris Games Week!
The demo is available from now until November 6th, while we're at Paris Games Week. Make sure you swing by the Jeux Made In France zone if you're also attending the event!
Meet Sota
Sota is a master of trickery and deception. With his varied movement cards, he can quickly cover the battlefield while also luring enemies off their positions of strength. Below are some of his main card mechanics.
Poison
Sometimes blades aren't enough. Thankfully, Sota can employ the Ogumo's deadly Poison to damage his enemies over time. If you didn't quite get the kill in the conventional way, your poison can finish the job for you.
Kunai
Sota always has a trick up his sleeve, generally the sharp kind. His Kunai are ephemeral cards (meaning they are removed from your deck when played) that deal a small amount of damage by themselves. Fill your hand with them, however, and you can unleash death by a thousand cuts on your opponent.
Stealth
As a master of terrain, Sota can take his time setting up for the perfect kill by using his Stealth cards to ensure his enemies don't spot him before it's too late. Stealth cards are also great for dealing with groups of enemies, as only the target will aggro onto Sota.
Lure
Using the Ogumo's magic, Sota can place afterimages of himself on the battlefield. Lure cards have tons of potential uses. Use them to lure enemies away from their group, off beneficial terrain, or to cover your escape.
So what are you waiting for? Take control of the master of deception and play the new Mahokenshi demo today! Let us know what you think of Sota on the forums, or join the community on Discord!
