Today Iello announced a new title which will make its premiere at this year’s Origins Game Fair. Arena: For the Gods! pits two to six players, representing different mythical factions, in a battle royale to the death. Interestingly enough, there’s no player elimination since the first to fall in combat triggers the end of the game. Arena: For the Gods! is for ages eight and up (Really? An arena combat game for kids?!?!) and will carry an MSRP of $39.99.
In case you’re curious, the Origins Game Fair will take place June 14th through the 18th in Columbus, OH.
From Iello:
Welcome to the Arena of the all-powerful! With Arena: For the Gods!, dive into a universe in which heroes from 6 different mythos fight together for the entertainment of their Gods. Hand-picked by a divine hand for a battle to the death, you’re assuming the role of a powerful fighter.
Use your life points to bid for the best weapons and use the dice wisely to activate the most powerful attacks. The first player who dies puts an end to the game – and the surviving hero with the most life points left wins.
The plethora of equipment and choices in the game will bring a new experience to each replay!
