Experience The Witcher universe in an entirely new way with Gwent: The Legendary Card Game. Inspired by the iconic mini-game from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, this official physical edition brings the strategic, faction-based card game to your tabletop. In Gwent, two players build decks from factions such as the Northern Realms, Scoia'tael, Monsters, Skellige, and Nilfgaard, each with its own unique set of cards and abilities. The goal of the game is to win two out of three rounds. The battlefield features multiple rows to which players will deploy their units and special ability cards to battle it out. Players must skillfully bluff, manage their resources, and read their opponent's moves in order to wisely choose when to push aggressively to win a round - and when to hold back and play for the long game.
