Q1 2021 Development Roadmap
More warbands. Stormsire’s Cursebreakers are making their way to the Mirrored City. Battle-mages with mastery over howling storm magic, they have been sent to investigate the curse of Shadespire! Two more warbands are seen in the distance, though shrouded in thick, magical fog...
More cards. We have a number of Universal cards coming to diversify your card pool, prepare yourselves! As always, these cards come as a **FREE** update to all players.
More features. Emotes to help you communicate with your opponent in real-time. Deck templates for those looking for help with deck-building elements, or those who want to try out some new tactics. Ranked season end, bringing with it lush rewards and an opportunity to really show off your mastery.
There’s even more happening in this period that I can’t discuss right now, but trust me when I say you should be very excited.
What do you think? Head over to our Discord to discuss with other players!
