Wildfrost release date set for April, new trailer
Thanks to Chucklefish, Deadpan Games, and Gaziter, we have a release date for Wildfrost. It’s been confirmed that the tactical roguelike deckbuilder is heading to Switch on April 12, 2023.
Chucklefish originally announced Wildfrost for Switch last May. It was initially planned for the fall, but the project ended up seeing a delay.
Learn more about the game in the following overview:
Take to the frozen tundras of Wildfrost! Players will embark on a perilous journey through the frosty mountains alongside their trusty card deck of charming companions and powerful elemental items, in order to reclaim a world from a mysterious eternal winter. It’ll take determination, sharp strategy and deck-building skills to reach the Sun Temple and banish the Wildfrost once and for all!
Along the monster-laden trek, players will rescue and recruit frozen companions, unearth lost treasures, gift wondrous wobbly charms and spend hard-earned blings with mysterious travelling merchants. The decisions made in each run will help players craft a powerful deck, unique to each playthrough. Players can return to Snowdwell to rebuild the town, unlock more cards and encounter new challenges and events for an endlessly replayable adventure.
