Genre fans will have to wait a little longer to delve into the depths of Box Dragon’s upcoming strategic roguelike deckbuilder, As We Descend. The game’s Early Access release date has been delayed from 27th March to 28th May to allow for extra polish.
It’s not all bad news though, as the developer has published a new update for the game’s Steam demo, adding 11 new languages. The new languages include: French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Ukrainian. The game will be available in these languages as well as Russian and English when it launches into Early Access.
In As We Descend, players must play their cards right in both the apocalyptic battlefield and the last city of humankind. Hailing from one of the three great factions of the City-Vault, you hold the key to its fate amidst the post-apocalypse. The game features titanic enemies that players must take down strategically, relying not just on strength but on wit.
