Bristol, UK – September 10, 2026 – Yogscast Games and Save Sloth Studios are thrilled to announce that the hilarious, ruthless and much loved medieval lane-based roguelike deckbuilder The Royal Writ has officially launched on console! The Royal Writ is out now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and Xbox Game Pass.
Combining glorious picturebook visuals, delightfully dark humour and high-stakes tactical card play where permadeath is absolute, The Royal Writ invites players to experiment to unlock perfect synergies and feel the urge to return to the battlefield for yet one more run! And one more run they have definitely done, as players have bestowed The Royal Writ with a Very Positive rating on Steam – a rating fit for royalty!
In The Royal Writ, players enlist a charming animal army and deploy them across one to three lanes to advance turn-by-turn toward the enemy gates. Balance base power with multiplication modifiers to reduce the opponent’s health to zero. But beware: every step brings your troops closer to the frontline and if one of your fighters reaches the enemy base or falls into hazardous perils, it is permanently destroyed from your deck (and your heart!)
