Culdcept The First announced for PS5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC
Due out on July 30.
City Connection has announced Culdcept The First for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC (Steam). It will launch on July 30. Physical editions will be available for PlayStation 5 and Switch in Japan.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
The pinnacle of board game and card game fusion is back.
The “Book” of the Gods Moves the World
On the continent of Bablashca, where the chief god Culdra once clashed with the neutral god Baltias, humanity—Culdra’s final creation—had long flourished.
However, the world fell into chaos when stone tablets discovered across the land were revealed to be fragments of “Culdcept”—the Book of Creation and Destruction.
Driven by the mythical prophecy that “he who commands the Culdcept shall gain infinite power,” Cepter began to fight one another over the scattered fragments.
As the ravages of war spread, a lone youth finally rises and sets out on a long, epic journey.
A Battle of Offense and Defense for Territory
Players become “Cepter” who wield cards, heading into battle with a self-constructed 50-card “Book” (deck).
Move across the map guided by the roll of the dice and summon creatures using cards on the spaces where you land. Any land where you place a creature becomes your territory.
By using Spell Cards, you can manipulate dice rolls, support your creatures, or sabotage your rivals.
The first Cepter to collect the target amount of Magic Power and return to the Castle (the starting point) is declared the winner.
After a match, you will receive a random set of cards based on your ranking. Incorporate these new cards into your Book and refine your tactics for the next battle.
Incandescent Battles Featuring 180 Types of Creatures
When you land on another player’s territory, you must pay Magic Power as a toll. However, by summoning a creature and winning a battle, you can claim that territory as your own.
In battle, the key to victory lies not only in a creature’s stats and special abilities but also in Item Card effects and support bonuses from the land or allies.
Seize territories and increase your Magic Power to gain the upper hand in the game.

Note: Save data is not shared between languages. Separate save files will be created for Japanese and English.
