Here’s a full overview:

  • An All-new Game Mode: Brave the new Soul Savior mode to wrest powerful Souls from the clutches of the unstoppable Lifemother and her twisted children
    • Battle a crew of new bosses in any order you wish, enduring curses with each beast slain in exchange for access to boosted rewards
    • Equip the Souls you free from each boss to cards in your deck to earn a huge array of powerful effects
    • Amass power as you unlock Souls, advancing meta progression and strategic possibilities while conquering a challenge wholly unique from the base game
  • Fearsome New Enemies: Soul Savior’s cosmic setting beckons a horde of new monsters keen to wreak havoc in allegiance with some familiar foes
  • New Playable Forces: Available for play in all game modes and existing content, the formidable Railforged Clan that built the very trains you battle on throughout the series is ready to join the battle for the first time through two new playable characters:
    • Lead the clan as Herzal, the renowned blacksmith that personally crafted the Rail you ride and the Boneshaker train featured in Monster Train
    • Realize the might of Heph, the hammer-wielding powerhouse who crafted the Covenant Outpost and the Skullcrusher engine central to Monster Train 2
