Starship Warbeasts Unveils JRPG PVP Battles

Fresh indie studio Deploy Starship is developing their premiere title - Starship Warbeasts, an ambitious sci-fi card game slated for PC and mobile platforms as a free-to-play multiplayer experience.

Starship Warbeasts: What makes this sci-fi TCG unique?

Blending mechanics from Hearthstone and Magic: The Gathering with innovative combat systems, Starship Warbeasts introduces dynamic level-ups, real-time ability unlocks, and evolving battle strategies.

Players assume the role of Lumens - interstellar explorers commanding powerful Warbeasts. With over 75 million possible combinations, gamers assemble five-creature teams from diverse alien species, each with distinctive abilities.

The game features extensive customization through spells, equipment, and mid-combat progression that unlocks new tactical options. Success favors adaptable players who master both deck-building and in-match decision making.

Spanning 10 conflict-ridden planets battling for rare resources, Starship Warbeasts delivers rich worldbuilding primarily through live events, with additional narrative elements planned.

Additional gameplay features

Beyond core deck-building, each planet introduces 25 unique Warbeasts ranging from massive titans to psychic entities and exotic extraterrestrials.

Studio founder Matthew Albright hints at potential future campaign content, describing their vision for Starship Warbeasts as capturing the adrenaline of animated sci-fi adventures.

With full crossplay between Steam, Android and iOS, Starship Warbeasts targets a 2026 launch following extensive public and private testing phases.

While the Google Play listing remains pending, interested players can wishlist the game on Steam. For more gaming news, explore our coverage of Poppy Playtime Chapter 4's mobile debut.
