A new expansion called 'Guardians of Elderym' is set to launch in Gods Unchained. This release marks another major crossover with Guild of Guardians, one of the leading web3 fantasy RPGs.
In this set, characters known as Guardians from Elderym are now being summoned to Faenar, the main continent in Gods Unchained. These iconic heroes from GoG are now playable cards, opening new strategies and deeper lore connections between the two games.
The expansion includes 76 cards in total. There are 7 Legendary cards and 6 ultra-rare Mythic Art Variants. These Mythic cards are one-of-a-kind digital collectibles, each with its own unique artwork.
Each card pack contains 6 cards, and players can choose from three different types depending on how they play or collect:
Only 30,000 Booster, 3,000 Premium, and 600 Shiny Packs will be available, making supply limited.
Another major gameplay update with this expansion is the Level Up keyword. This mechanic allows certain cards to unlock powerful effects once players have spent a specific amount of mana over time.
For instance, if a card has "Level Up 5," players need to spend five mana total across their turns for the card's stronger ability to activate. The mechanic carries across turns and even applies to card copies created mid-game.
Six Mythic Art Variants: TianLong, Phoenicia, Oxellus, Kharkuk, Lia, and Ennara stand out as the top prizes of the expansion. Each is a 1/1 NFT, and their art features detailed, high-fantasy visuals that reflect their abilities and stories.
For example, TianLong summons celestial dragons and becomes stronger in spell-heavy decks, while Phoenicia is built around burn damage with a repeatable god-damaging effect. Oxellus, with its rotating protection and ward effects, serves as a utility wall that's difficult to remove.
Each of these Mythic cards has a unique distribution: some appear in Premium or Shiny packs, others are tied to special events or rewards.
Players can buy Guardians of Elderym packs directly from the Gods Unchained website starting June 24 at 11 AM AEST. The sale will last for 28 days or until packs are sold out.
To buy, players need to connect their wallets and be on the Immutable zkEVM network. Supported currencies include GODS, ETH, IMX, GOG, and USDC.
Sealed Mode will also feature the new expansion with four reward tiers. Winning seven matches will get you a Heroic Pack, which offers the best odds at Mythics and Legendaries. Exclusive trinkets, including Skeleton Assassin and Water Elemental, can only be found in Sealed packs, making this mode a key route for collectors.
Lia's Mythic Art Variant is one of the rewards players can earn by performing well in Sealed Mode.
As with previous expansions, there will be a four-week balancing period after launch, during which the team will monitor card performance and make adjustments if needed. After this period, the set will be locked in, and no further changes will be made.
This ensures a stable competitive environment while allowing enough time to fix any issues that arise from the new mechanics.
Guardians of Elderym is shaping up to be a landmark expansion for Gods Unchained. With a rich mix of characters from Guild of Guardians, a new gameplay mechanic, and ultra-rare collector items, it offers both strategic depth and the thrill of collecting. Whether you're a competitive player, a casual collector, or a lore fan, this expansion brings something fresh to the table.
