Since 2012, deck-building fans have been able to battle their favorite DC superheroes with the stand-alone expansion Dark Nights: Metal, which has been replenished for one of the more unusual crossovers in the DC Universe. The expansion can be pre-ordered via Cryptozic and should be available in August.
Batman traveling through a dark multiverse that exists parallel to the conventional DC multiverse can be enjoyed by fans at Dark Nights: Metal. That is - very roughly summarized - the starting situation for the bat man in the crossover, which appeared for the first time in 2017. Cryptozoic has now taken up the setting for its new expansion to the DC deck building game.
Dark Nights: Metals still available in August
Around 200 new cards come into play with the stand-alone expansion Dark Nights: Metal, as well as eleven oversized superheroes. Central is the super villain "Batman who laughs", a nasty Multiverse bat antagonist and crazy mix of Batman and the Joker.
Based on the Metal comic series, Cryptozoic now brings the appropriate content to the DC deck building game. All of the content of the new expansion can be played on, but it is also compatible with the maps that have been released so far. Two to five players take on the roles of Justice League characters to take down the aforementioned Batman-Joker hybrid. This expansion also introduces a new mechanic into the game: The "Laughing Batman" captures other heroes, who then have to be freed by the remaining team members as quickly as possible. Fans can play, among other things, Wonder Woman, Superman, Flash or Aquaman - and of course Batman.
The focus of the game is also on the illustrations for one of the rather unusual crossovers in the DC universe. It was not until 2019 that the DC Deckbuilding Game: Rebirth, a new offshoot of the deckbuilding game, appeared, in which different iconic locations from the DC universe play central roles.
