Read the full game description

Ascension Legends is a standalone deck-building game for newcomers and veteran Ascension players. Each turn converts cards into runes for recruiting heroes and constructs or power for defeating monsters in the center row. New Legendary tracks reward commitment to Enlightened, Lifebound, Mechana, and Void factions with escalating abilities, while defeated Remnants can grant lasting faction benefits. Dual-faction cards widen combo possibilities without changing the series’ quick draw-play-buy-or-battle rhythm. The set plays alone and can integrate with other Ascension releases.
