Step into the Sea of Fates, where the legendary franchise returns with a tactical twist! Might & Magic Fates has officially launched worldwide as of February 4, 2026.
Whether you’re a long-time fan of Ashan or a newcomer to tactical card games (TCGs), here is what you need to know about Ubisoft’s latest release:
The Gameplay: Strategy Over Luck
Forget standard mana pools. Fates introduces a gold-based economy where your resources are generated directly from the cards in your hand.
Hero-Led Battles: Your hero isn’t just a portrait; they level up mid-match, unlocking new abilities that evolve your strategy on the fly.
Lane-Based Tactics: Positioning matters. Combat takes place in tactical lanes, rewarding players who can outmanoeuvre their opponents.
Total Freedom: No faction locks here! You can mix and match creatures, spells, and artefacts from Haven, Necropolis, Inferno, and Academy to build the ultimate deck.
Where to Play
Mobile: Available now on iOS and Android.
PC: Early Access is currently rolling out on Steam.
Web3 Integration: In partnership with Immutable, the game features an optional marketplace where players in eligible regions can truly own and trade their cards.
Quick Tip: If you held a “Faction Key” before launch, check your wallet! You should have received90 FATES tokens, which can be redeemed for 90 card packs to jumpstart your collection.

Forget everything you know about the classic playground game. Wink Out, developed by Clevergence Games, is a high-octane 1v1 top-down shooter that turns “winking” into a physics-driven duel of chaos and cards.
The Lowdown
In this indie brawler, the goal isn’t just to shoot—it’s to launch your opponent off the stage. Every hit carries massive knockback, meaning one well-timed ability can send your rival flying into the void.
Mirrored Arenas: Maps are procedurally generated but perfectly mirrored, ensuring every 1v1 is settled by skill, not a lucky spawn.
The Card System: Between rounds, you head to a shared shop to buy ability cards. With trillions of potential combinations, you can craft a build that’s totally broken (in the best way possible).
Comeback Economy: Fallen behind? The game’s economy scales to give the underdog a fighting chance to gear up and flip the script in the next round.
Why You’ll Love It
Chaos Meets Strategy: It’s fast-paced like a platform fighter but strategic like a deck-builder.
Physics is Your Friend: There’s nothing more satisfying than using an opponent’s own momentum to “Wink” them right out of the arena.
Party Ready: While it’s a tight 1v1 experience, it’s built for couch competition and “winner-stays-on” game nights.
The Verdict: If you enjoy games where “just one more round” turns into 3:00 AM, keep an eye on this one. It’s competitive, quirky, and incredibly polished.

The moon is under attack, and it’s up to you to pilot the last experimental ship to save humanity! If that sounds like the setup for a high-stakes sci-fi adventure, you’re absolutely right. But what makes Night Machine truly unique is how it delivers that mission: by mashing up the strategic depth of a roguelike deckbuilder with the frantic energy of real-time tactical combat.
The free demo for Night Machine, from indie developer Cooler Game Studios, is now live on Steam, offering a thrilling glimpse into the moon’s procedurally generated, alien-infested core. We took the controls to see how this cosmic experiment holds up!
A Real-Time Roguelike Deckbuilder? Yes, Please.
The first thing that grabs you about Night Machine is the bold combination of its core mechanics. You’re not just playing cards in a turn-based vacuum; you’re actively piloting a 3D vessel, manoeuvring to dodge fire while simultaneously drawing and playing cards that represent your ship’s systems—weapons, shields, movement, and more.
Fast-Paced Action: Forget the luxury of thinking for minutes. Enemies are firing, threats are escalating, and your reflexes are just as important as your card synergy. It’s a rush!
Card-as-Control: Every action you take—from launching a powerful laser to shunting power to your shields—is a card play. This creates an incredibly tactile and engaging layer of strategy where managing your deck is a literal life-and-death systems control.
The Innovation: The Patch Card System
The core gameplay loop is addictive, but the real star of the show might be the Patch Card System. This revolutionary mechanic lets you risk modifying and merging card effects in the middle of a run.
Want to push your basic attack card for a massive, but risky, damage boost? Need to combine a shield card’s defence with a movement card’s speed? The Patch system lets you push your luck, creating temporary, high-risk/high-reward variations of your abilities. Mastering this on-the-fly customisation is key to surviving the deeper sectors.
What the Demo Delivers
The current demo is a perfect slice of the full experience, giving players enough content to understand the stakes and the mechanics:
The First Sector: You get to explore the initial, mysterious sector of the lunar core, learning the basics of piloting and card play.
Two Ships to Master: The demo allows you to try out two distinct ships, each with its own starting deck and playstyle, hinting at the deep customisation available in the final game.
The Core Loop: Experience the full roguelite progression: complete missions, collect new cards, and upgrade your ship’s offensive and defensive systems.
Final Verdict on the Demo
Night Machine is shaping up to be a standout title in the roguelike genre. It successfully fuses high-octane 3D space combat with thoughtful deck construction, demanding both strategy and sharp reflexes. If you enjoy the depth of deckbuilding games like Slay the Spire but crave a more immediate, action-packed experience, you absolutely need to download this demo.
Will you risk a system overload to save humanity? Find out for yourself!
