The base game is a ton of fun, combining D&D thrills with an easy to pick-up game system. But Demeo relies heavily upon fog-of-war, which means that teams must proceed carefully, as rushing blindly towards your goals will result in a dead party surrounded by monsters with full bellies. Each turn consists of two action points, which can be used to move, attack, or use a card to cast a spell. Player teams are essentially trying to work through a dungeon to find the exit, while a devious DM drops a variety of monsters into their path.

The mechanics of Demeo are easy to pick up. Characters and creatures come to life, spells zing through the air, and the edges of dungeons drip with darkness. Players hunch around a living board game in a shared VR space, and with dice and cards, work together to try to survive one of the many devious scenarios Resolution Games has created. For those not familiar, Demeo is a co-op dungeon crawler, played online in VR (or on flat screens, for plebes). And while it shares a lot of the assets and mechanics with the original Demeo, it is indeed different enough to distinguish itself from its parent game. Uncover synergies between a cast of mighty champions and battle it out in fierce grid-based action combat in Demeo Battles video game.ĭemeo Battles is a stand-alone release, rather than an add-on or DLC.

Welcome to the arena, champions! PvP turn-based strategy game for 1-4 players. Available today as a paid release, Demeo Battles sees Resolution Games begin to expand its newfound intellectual property into a budding franchise. Further down the line, however, the team instead pivoted plans towards Battles, an entirely standalone release that would arrive separate to the core Demeo title. Resolution Games initially announced Battles as a PvP game mode coming to Demeo.

The team’s continued commitment to supporting existing players, while also expanding onto new platforms like PC and PSVR 2 (and soon, Apple Vision Pro) is impressive.
