Characters battle on a grid in Card-en-Ciel.

Developer Inti Creates has announced that the upcoming roguelite card-battling RPG Card-en-Ciel will launch digitally on October 24th worldwide for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. Sadly, only Japan is confirmed to be receiving physical versions on PS5 and Switch.

Peep the latest trailer below, showing how the cards play with the Mega Man Battle Network-esque grid in battles. 

Card-en-Ciel boasts a total of 300 cards, fully voiced characters, 10 challenging dungeons each with boss battles, and tons of replayability — there are new rules and 10 more difficulties to unlock. If you’ve played other games from Inti Creates, expect to see familiar faces in your deck.

Card-en-Ciel Overview

A Card-Battling RPG Through the Eras of Gaming

Card-en-Ciel stars Neon, a gaming detective, as he collects and battles with over 300 cards on a deck-building RPG adventure. Players will adventure through over 10 different dungeons, earning character cards to strengthen their deck and unlock new techniques to use in ever-expanding roguelite card battles.

Special “Muse Cards” add another layer to the card battles, activating powerful abilities with their songs during battle, with 50 vocal tracks included in-game.

Together with the Muses’ song abilities, players will use hidden card “glitches” and even enemies’ attacks against them to perform satisfying, full power combos with their unique decks.
