Resolution Games, in collaboration with Wizards of the Coast, has announced the development of Demeo x Dungeons & Dragons: Battlemarked, an innovative role-playing game designed for extended reality (XR) devices. This game combines the tactical, turn-based combat system of Resolution Games' previous title, Demeo, with the rich lore, classes, and actions of Dungeons & Dragons. The game will feature a dungeon master-less system, focusing on social strategy and communication among players, which aims to immerse participants equally in the gameplay experience.
The game will launch with two story-based campaigns, with additional campaigns planned as downloadable content (DLC) set in various Dungeons & Dragons settings. Demeo x Dungeons & Dragons: Battlemarked is set to be available on PC, console, and other XR devices, supporting up to four players in co-operative play. This collaboration seeks to bring the excitement of Dungeons & Dragons to a new audience while providing a fresh experience for existing fans of both franchises.
