Ubisoft’s web3-inspired tactical strategy game, Champions Tactics: Reforged, has officially entered Season 3, bringing new content, competitive challenges, and a broader audience as the title prepares to launch on Steam. The announcement was shared via the game’s official channels on March 25, alongside a call to players eager to test their mettle in the shadowy world of Grimoria.

Originally designed as a turn-based multiplayer game combining classic board game mechanics with dark fantasy aesthetics, Champions Tactics: Reforged allows players to lead squads of mystical figurines—each representing legendary Champions—into strategic PvP battles. The game has now opened up wishlist access on Steam.

A New Chapter in Grimoria

Season 3 introduces a fresh chapter in the ongoing narrative of Grimoria, the mysterious fantasy realm where lords wield enchanted figurines forged by ancient bloodstone magic. As part of the new season, Ubisoft continues to expand the game’s tactical elements while refining its multiplayer experience, ensuring skill and strategic depth remain at the forefront.

In the game, players invoke Champions—each with unique traits and abilities—and build custom teams from a vast library of available characters. These teams then battle others in turn-based matches that reward planning, counters, and clever positioning. Ubisoft emphasizes that success is based on tactical mastery rather than chance, setting Champions Tactics apart from more luck-driven formats.

Coming Soon to Steam

As Champions Tactics gears up for its Steam release, Ubisoft has confirmed that the game will include online PvP, Steam Achievements, in-app purchases, trading cards, and third-party account integration via Ubisoft Connect. The game will also use Easy Anti-Cheat and require players to agree to a third-party end-user license agreement (EULA).

The title supports 12 languages for interface and subtitles, including English, French, Italian, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese. The launch date on Steam remains unannounced, but the listing indicates it is “coming soon,” with the option for users to wishlist the game and receive updates on its availability.

Gameplay and Features

Champions Tactics: Reforged tasks players with mastering team composition and combat strategy in a rapidly evolving meta. Whether commanding The Grim Rogue, The Ardent Diviner, or The Savage Oracle, players must leverage their Champions’ unique skill sets to adapt and overcome their opponents.

Key features include:

  • Champion Invocation: Harness the power of the Bloodstone to summon unique and powerful Champions.
  • Squad Assembly: Build customized lineups with thousands of collectible Champions.
  • PvP Competitions: Rise through ranked online ladders to earn epic seasonal rewards.
  • Tactical Depth: Victory is determined by planning, ability synergy, and understanding the opponent’s formation.
  • Skill-Based Play: The game minimizes RNG, promoting strategic play-to-win outcomes.

The game is optimized for modern PC systems, with minimum requirements including 8 GB RAM and a GeForce GTX 960, while recommended specs suggest GTX 1660 or higher for smoother performance.

A Strategic Move for Web3 Gaming

While the Steam listing does not mention web3 integrations directly, Champions Tactics has previously embraced blockchain-based gaming elements, including NFT-powered Champion collectibles. Its expansion to Steam reflects a broader strategy to bridge traditional gaming audiences with web3 communities, increasing accessibility without sacrificing core gameplay quality.
