It looks like Anderson Han's wish has come true, as one of his eagerly awaited Korean mobile games, Trickcal Re:Vive, is set to launch globally. Bilibili Games made a significant announcement at the Taipei Games Show, where they not only confirmed the global launch but also showcased the game in a big way.
So, what exactly is Trickcal Re:Vive? It's a unique turn-based, card-collecting RPG that breaks away from the often melodramatic genre with its embrace of an absurdist world. In the game, you step into the shoes of a protagonist who unexpectedly finds themselves leading a global religion, recruiting from a roster of over fifty apostles.
While the premise might suggest a serious tone, Trickcal Re:Vive is anything but. It's packed with humor, featuring cute characters engaging in whimsical antics and playful nods to popular titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto, alongside a plethora of both sublime and ridiculous subplots.
**Rev up your engines** The Taipei Games Show was a testament to the game's quirky nature, with Trickcal Re:Vive being highlighted by a specially wrapped Ferrari Itasha that transported guests around Taipei. Alongside heaps of merchandise, this display and the global launch announcement signal high expectations from Bilibili Games and Epid Games for Trickcal Re:Vive's international debut.
As for the release date, details are still under wraps, with only the confirmation of an upcoming global launch. While development continues, a safe bet might be a late 2025 or early 2026 release, though a mid-2025 launch isn't out of the question either. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates as we get closer to the launch date!
