Duelyst is a turn-based multiplayer strategy game that mixes tactical combat gameplay with strategic collectible card depth. Players engage in competitive matches that last up to 10 minutes – that’s 10 minutes of fast-paced high action and exciting decision-making, mind you.
“Counterplay Games brought together creative minds from around the video game industry to create our skill-based collectible tactics game DUELYST,” said Keith Lee, CEO and co-founder of Counterplay Games. “Our goal for DUELYST is to be compelling at the highest levels of play while remaining accessible to brand new players. Part of that strategy is to offer gamers short bursts of play along a smooth skill-curve so that players can invest in the long term metagame for many years to come.”
