October 2025 Newsletter

It’s finally happening.

Wildcard is going live at Steam Next Fest, and this time you’re stepping into the arena with us.

Mark your calendar: Monday, October 13

We’ve been working like mad alchemists to bring you our boldest version of Wildcard yet, and every bit of it was made with you in mind.

Here’s what’s in the Next Fest build:

• Free Battle Pass with exclusive Steam Next Fest skins
  
• New Champion - Lily: Ranged Healer / Melee Poisoner / Support
  
• Major Build Overhaul with new summons, better balance, and smoother gameplay
  
• Deck Renting so you can build faster and experiment more
  
• 24/7 Servers because epic moments don’t punch a timecard

And we're not stopping there.

We’re going live all week on Twitch, hanging out, celebrating, and watching your wildest plays come to life.

Oct 10 at 6PM EST: Join Lead Game Designer Brad Weir for an exclusive first look at the Next Fest build.

Then on Monday, Oct 13, ALL DAY from 12PM to 9PM EST: It’s the NEXT FEST KICKOFF on Twitch! Devs, community, and everything in between! Be there. Be loud. Make it wild!

FROM THE WILDCARD TEAM

Wildcard has always been the product of a big dream: a game that feels alive – something fun to play, fun to watch, and even better to share with friends.

This week isn’t just a milestone for us – it’s a celebration of every Wild One who’s believed in what we’re creating together.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

We’ll see you in the arena.

— Paul, Katy, and the entire Wildcard Team
