DC Forever Announced

As a seasoned gamer with years of experience under my belt, I’m always on the lookout for new and exciting games to add to my collection. And when I heard about WizKids’ latest offering, DC Forever, I couldn’t help but get excited!


WizKids has unveiled a new deck-building game titled “DC Forever” for 2-4 players, which takes inspiration from the DC superhero universe. In this asymmetrical game, players will face off as either Rogues or Heroes. The objective for Rogues is to accomplish various nefarious schemes, while Heroes aim to save citizens and sabotage the Rogue’s plans. A total of 18 characters are available, with each side being able to choose up to four unique Heroes or Villains for gameplay. Each character comes with its own strategy, allowing players to experiment and find the best team combinations. The roster includes popular figures like Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman, Aquaman, the Flash, Blue Beetle, Cyborg, Green Lantern, Zatanna, Joker, Punchline, Silver Banshee, Black Manta, Cheetah, Reverse Flash, Klarion, Lex Luthor, and Sinestro.

In this game, the initiation sees players selecting two figures from their own collection to formulate an initial deck of cards. The remaining characters are stationed in a holding area on each player’s side of the game board. During each turn, there are three distinct phases: first, the Rogue and Hero figures utilize their resources to activate skills, affix cards, or bring in new characters; secondly, there is a confrontation phase where players compete for dominance over locations and engage in attacking each other’s characters.

At the conflict stage, rogues have the option to further their plans by either recruiting locals or assaulting heroes in a particular spot. Should they opt for the former, rogues attempt to gather locals from that location and add them to the scheme with the goal of finishing it before the round ends. Following the rogue’s departure, heroes are given the choice to save any remaining residents from various locations or confront the villain and make an arrest attempt. A Scheme is considered successful if it amasses the necessary number of locals on it by the end of the round.

On each team, there are distinct objectives to achieve for victory: Heroes aim to seize control over all Rogues or save a collective number of thirty citizens; conversely, Rogues focus on accomplishing five individual schemes or vanquishing every hero in the fray.

DC Forever will be released in 2025.
