Overview

During the event period, “MONSTER CARDS -NEXT DIMENSION-” will be available as a selectable battle option!

What is “MONSTER CARDS -NEXT DIMENSION-”?

A limited-time mode that introduces multiple new game rules, along with a dedicated GameChanger, “Artifactry,” delivering exciting matches that break the conventions of MONSTER CARDS.

  1. Exclusive GameChanger: “Artifactry”

    At the start of the match, a card with this skill appears in the zone. While it generally cannot be replaced, each player can obtain an Artifact every turn.

    With over 80 different Artifacts available, choose wisely based on the situation and gain the upper hand!

    Steam post imageArtifacts offer a wide variety of effects—from enhancing specific races in your deck, to altering card rarities, and even granting new skills to your cards!

  2. Life System

    When you take damage, your Life is reduced instead of your deck! You lose the match when either your Life or your deck reaches 0. Your starting Life is 20.

    Some skill effects behave differently from their normal versions due to the introduction of the Life system.

  3. Turn Skip

    After refilling your hand at the start of your turn, you may choose to skip your turn.

    As a penalty, you take damage and receive attacks from cards in the attack zone unconditionally. However, this allows you to prepare for the next turn without reducing your hand.

    The penalty damage increases each time you skip a turn, so choose your timing carefully.

  4. Defeat Bonus

    If your card’s attack successfully reduces an opponent’s Life to 0, you gain a bonus: you may choose and take 1 card from their hand.
