We’re Sailing into 1.0 This November!

[p]Ahoy Blitzers!

Some great news washing ashore this morning, and we’re beyond excited to tell you that Cross Blitz is officially sailing out of Early Access and into 1.0 on November 24th 2025! Starting on October 24th, Cross Blitz will cost $22.99 on Steam as we batten down the hatches and prepare for the November voyage to 1.0.[/p][p]Since we first weighed anchor on the Early Access back in 2023, Cross Blitz has brought on board a hearty crew of characters, and called into various ports to restock on cards and challenges. But there’s more to come yet, so cast your eyes on today’s freshly-caught trailer and dive into the adventures which await with our November 1.0 launch.[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]In Cross Blitz, heart-felt adventure meets fierce, strategic turn-based battles. Joining a memorable crew of five heroes, Blitzers will guide them through tense conflict and bountiful treasure hunting, weaving highs and lows into your lengthy voyages in the Fables story mode.[/p][p]Ally with Seto, a small but powerful martial artist, on a journey to find his master. Or join Quill to aid in high-stakes heists and support him as he fights to provide for his impoverished family and bring justice to the common folk. In addition, keep your eyes peeled and set your spyglass to the horizon, as a new crew member - Mereena - will be joining the fray very soon![/p][p]Mereena joins fierce pirate Redcroft and the charming popstar Violet in 1.0, adding even more variety to our swelling crew. Players will join Mereena to discover more about this insightful and caring Sprout Elf, and help her to deliver peace and tranquility for all those on Crossdawn Isle. She may be the future ruler of Sproutsvale, but players will need to guide Mereena as she discovers the world outside her sheltered upbringing.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]During each hero’s adventure you’ll explore a  variety of unique locations, and meet an array of colourful characters - all while unlocking a boat-load of  new cards, abilities and relics. Blitzers will need to deploy from a treasure trove of strategic tools to craft the perfect deck to suit the way you like to \sail\ play![/p][p]Test your strategy in the Tusk Tales roguelite mode, charting your own course through the peculiar regions of the Cross Blitz world. On this journey, no two voyages will ever be the same, requiring Blitzers to adapt to overcome and survive. Purchase powerful trinkets to boost your curated deck, rally a crew of trusty mercenaries and face off against foes that grow fiercer with every battle.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Blitzers who joined our crew previously may already know, but for the as-yet landlubbers among us, here’s what you can find on a Cross Blitz voyage![/p]
  • [p]Deep Deckbuilding Strategy: \Swab\ Build unstoppable decks with more than 500 cards, customising and perfecting strategies to meet different playstyles across five factions.[/p]
  • [p]Thrilling Adventure: Sail through 60+ hours of adventures across five different stories as our heroes overcome a variety of trials and tribulations in the Fables story mode.[/p]
  • [p]Endlessly Replayable Challenge: Brave constantly-changing seas on the roguelite Tusk Tales mode to unlock 20 new mercenaries. Face off on four randomised maps packed with unique battles and 12 different bosses to test your tactical prowess.[/p]
  • [p]An Enthralling World: Packed to the crow’s nest with colourful characters, intriguing locations and delightful secrets, making Cross Blitz an exceptional title for those looking for adventure and exploration.[/p]
[p]We’re looking forward to setting sail alongside our incredible community, as we launch into 1.0 on November 24th. Get ready to hornswoggle your enemies and hang ‘em from the yard arm. [/p][p]Prepare for adventure, Blitzers.
