Last year we shared details of Chrono Faction, a deckbuilding roguelike from Mojo Bones, the developers of excellent 3DS eShop title Siesta Fiesta. It's now changed name to City Wars: Tokyo Reign, and has an extensive overview trailer that highlights how it'll work.
As you can see it has its own spin on the genre, opting for a timeline UI approach and a battlefield that evolves and keeps you on your toes; it'll also have over 140 cards to obtain and will be a premium title (not free-to-play with microtransactions).
- STRATEGY MEETS ACTION A fresh take on a classic genre. Dynamic track-based battlefield where tactile mechanics meet turn-based card battling.
- FROM BEGINNER TO WINNER CITY WAR’S rules can be learned in minutes, opening the doors for players of all ages and skill levels. Strong customisation and a complex meta provide long-term depth, making it much harder to master.
- ENDLESS CHOICE Design your own COMBAT CASE from over 140 CARDS (across 5 categories), 20 GUNS (with stat modifiers) and over 25 CHARMS (each with battle-altering perks).
- DISTRICT RUN A deep Roguelike single-player mode where you’ll build a collection, make key decisions and battle across 5 procedurally generated Districts. Will you survive the elusive SHADOW DISTRICT and conquer the city?
- DISTRICT WAR A competitive online multiplayer experience where you'll test your COMBAT CASE against other players from across the globe. Can you raise your BOUNTY high enough to become the city's most wanted?
- WAYS TO PLAY Casual and competitive multiplayer. Battle online or utilise CITY WAR'S unique design to fight locally.
It has a Steam page already ahead of an upcoming beta, and is still also coming to the Switch.
Let us know what you think; is this on your radar for Switch?

It change name cause Square Enix still owns trademark for Chrono Trigger. City Wars: Tokyo Reign sounds like a better name for a game like this anyways.
Chrono Trigger? I think you mean Chrono Faction
Anyway I back this on KS and was gutted when it got no traction. Glad to see it back though and i am very much looking forward to it.
No wonder they changed the name, it looks nothing like Chrono Trigger.
Nice !!! it looks it´ll be fun!
"Last year we shared details of Chrono Trigger..."
Did you 😂
Chrono FACTION, it should read. We know, where someone's mind was, lol.
Looks like a lot of fun..
I probably will pick it up at some point
