Gwent: The Witcher Card Game, finally arrives on iOS in October

Gwent: The Witcher Card Game is finally directed to iOS. Fans will be able to see the free game on mobile devices starting October 29th. Most importantly, all progress, including card collections, will be reported from the PC version of the game.

Gwent started life as a mini-game in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunting, featuring trading cards scattered around the game world. Then, at E3 2016, CD Projekt Red revealed that it would be turned into a standalone product. Card-based fights have also inspired a standalone title called Tronebreaker: The Witcher Tales, an isometric role-playing game that uses Gwent to fuel his combat and non-combat encounters.

Unlike other GCCs like home and Magic: the rally, Gwent is played with several lines. Each row confers different offensive and defensive advantages depending on the cards played. autonomous Gwent stumbled initially, partly because of the implementation of this mechanism. This led to a complete redesign of the main gameplay.

"We have never accepted" quite well "in our society," wrote CD Projekt co-founder Marcin Iwiński in an open letter to the community in early 2018. "We have always taken risks and made bold decisions if a better game. "

The end result of this redesign is a more balanced and tactical experience. The results seem to have been well received by the community.

To prepare for the release of Gwent on iOS, fans can "pre-order" the game – which is free – on the Apple App Store. The developer says that pre-orders will help ensure they are ready to go on the first day. To postpone the progress of the PC version of the game, players will have to use their GoG credentials to connect to iOS.
