TL;DR — What changes for players?
Ranked arrives in the demo. Review the new mission options and mulligan information; animation speed, translations and grading visuals are still unfinished in this build.
Origins Tavern’s recap and explanations, based on Koin Games’ announcement.
The changes in detail
New features
- The home screen is redesigned, and new playmats appear on the home screen and match board.
- Ranked becomes playable in the demo. At this date, progression reaches the Grandmaster boundary but entry into that division is still closed.
- Missions can be progressed through PvE in Missions or PvP in Ranked.
- The mulligan shows how many cards the opponent replaces.
- Inspecting commanders displays their nameplate and plays a voice line.
- The board gains clickable interactions with placeholder visuals and audio. A one-time opening cinematic is introduced, with polish still pending.
Fixes and improvements
- Collection searches accept multiple words and also find cards that summon the searched-for card.
- Emote slots can be cleared. Huck Finn and Christopher Robin receive adjusted voices.
- The game attempts to start in the player’s supported system language. Bots play faster, although more work is planned.
- The publisher reports roughly 100 bug fixes without listing each individually.
Known issues at publication
- Game speed and animations still need substantial work.
- Card-grade visuals are not available in this build. Non-English localization contains unfinished and placeholder text.
