Hold onto your dice! Resolution Games just dropped a sneak peek of its upcoming Dungeons & Dragons spin on Demeo. Yep, you heard right. Finally, after what seemed like forever since the January blurt out—Resolution Games and Hasbro’s Wizards of the Coast—you know, those folks with all the magical, monster-y things, have given us a glimpse of Demeo x DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: Battlemarked. And let me tell you, it’s something.
First impressions? Feels kinda like the Demeo we know, but, like, with a twist. Picture this: you and three buddies diving into monster-packed dungeons. Sounds like a weekend plan, right?
Here’s the deal. If you’ve never dabbled in the original Demeo, it’s this RPG where turn-based battles play out on these gridded dungeons. And, really, you’re rolling dice to decide your fate—sounds wild, doesn’t it? So, in Battlemarked, they’re keeping that same dice: one sword means you hit, double is a crit, and that dreaded skull… well, let’s just say it won’t be your best day.
Cards fly around too—everyone loves a good card play, right? Each card has its own jazz, letting you attack, defend, heal, or buff like some sort of tabletop superhero.
Oh, and here’s a curveball—or maybe not—they’re going hybrid with VR and flatscreen goodness. Rolling this out on Steam, PS5, Quest 3/S, PSVR 2, and PC VR headsets. Basically, it’s a buffet of screens.
The big reveal: late 2025. I know, I know, patience is a virtue they say. Are you ready to wishlist it? Pop it on your list for Quest, PlayStation, or Steam. And keep an ear out for more deets. Where’s Matt Sernett when you need him? He’s the brain behind this storytelling, pulling on his D&D roots—yeah, think Baldur’s Gate vibes. Classic.
Or maybe I’m rambling. Anyway—pick up your gear and keep your calendar marked. Something tells me this adventure’s gonna be quite a ride.
