Guilty Gear Strive: The Board Game Kickstarter Begins in August

Aug 10, 2023

Level 99 Games is going to kick off a Kickstarter to crowdfund Guilty Gear Strive: The Board Game on August 22, 2023. It will seek $150,000 by September 14, 2023 to fund the project. If funded, the estimated release window is July 2024. There is also a free demo deck people can get from the company while supplies last. These demo decks are also being handed out at Evo 2023.

Players will choose their fighters and place them on the board. They will then need to use the cards in their deck to power up and attack each other. This will lower the health of the fighters on the field, with the last one standing winning the match. The $99 standard edition tier, which will cost $130 when it comes to stores, includes 20 characters and a total of 695 cards. It also includes two silver coins and a neoprene, double-stitched playmat. The $179 collector’s edition tier adds 20 acrylic character standees, four gold coins, and a second playmat. If someone goes up to $499, they also get BlazBlue: The Board Game and Under Night In-Birth: The Board Game, which are both compatible with Guilty Gear Strive: The Board Game.

Here’s how the prototype looks:

As for the free demo, people get one metal coin and a two-player deck that includes two characters. People can test out matches with Ky Kiske and Sol Badguy to see how the fighting system works.

The Guilty Gear Strive: The Board Game Kickstarter will begin on August 22, 2023. Guilty Gear Strive is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Windows PC.
