Fantasy tactical RPG Skygard Arena makes festival debut in the first ever Steam Turn-Based RPG Fest

Lead your Champions to victory in turn-based skirmishes in solo or PvP

Paris, France, September 30th, 2024 – Independent developer Gemelli Games is proud to announce that their upcoming fantasy tactical RPG Skygard Arena will participate in the debut Steam Turn-Based RPG Fest, running from September 30th to October 7th, 2024. Celebrating everyone that makes, plays and loves turn-based games from all genres, Skygard Arena brings their new demo to the festival allowing players to discover the core mechanics, playable Champions, Personas and arenas first hand and dive into tactical battles either solo or PvP.

Celebrating games that challenge your ability to strategize one step at a time, the Steam Turn-Based RPG Fest will run throughout the week, exhibiting RPGs with combat mechanics on Steam. As part of the festival, Gemelli Games has recently launched their Skygard Arena Demo, allowing festival goers to whet their appetite and try out the new game ahead of its future Early Access launch. 

In the Skygard Arena Demo, get an early look at the game’s Arena mode. After 4 introductory missions to discover the basics, jump into the action with no time or game limit! Play solo against two kinds of AI opponents: the Classic AI, perfect to train over your first games, or the studio’s in-house Experimental AI, inspired by chess engines, for a new kind of challenge. You can also take the fight online and face other players with the demo’s global matchmaking system to climb the leaderboard, or face a friend for a casual game! Playing games online or against AI will make you unlock more Champions, with 7 available in total. You will also unlock an alternate Persona for each Champion, with their own moveset, and over 50 playable items to build your own team and find the playstyle that suits you. This demo is a unique experience designed to showcase the core gameplay of Skygard Arena – the first chapters of the single-player campaign mode will be available when the game launches in Early Access later this year!
