Oh man, so here it is—Resolution Games goes and pulls the curtain back on Demeo with a big D&D twist. Why is this such a big deal? Well, because we’re talking about a mashup involving Dungeons & Dragons, the heavy-hitter of tabletop RPGs. Yep, Demeo x DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: Battlemarked is the latest episode in this crossover saga. I mean, it was only a matter of time, right?
I’m not exactly sure what I expected when they first hinted at this in January, but here we are. They dropped some gameplay goodies that show off the settings, the vibe, blah blah blah. Now, if you’re someone who’s waded through countless monster-infested dungeons before like me, the gameplay probably looks suspiciously familiar. No surprises there.
Oh, right—there’s this picture they shared (thanks, Resolution Games, for that snapshot). No idea why I noticed this, but the lighting in those dungeons gives off this sorta eerie, “we’ll eat your soul if you misstep” glow. Or maybe that’s just me projecting, who knows.
Look, if you’ve never dived into Demeo, here’s a crash course: it’s all about these fast, turn-based scuffles in grid-like dungeons. You get action points to prance around, then there’s this dice you roll. It kinda feels like an odd childhood flashback, y’know? Anyway—wait, where was I? Oh yeah, the dice. They’re still there with their trio of emotional states: sword, double swords, and cruel skulls. And those cards? Yup, they dictate your moves – attack, defend, heal. It’s like picking a card for your destiny.
Oh! And they’re saying it’ll have this hybrid thing going, with both VR and good ol’ flatscreen play. So, whether you’re using a traditional monitor or one of those fancy VR headsets, like on Quest 3 or PSVR 2, you’re locked in. Or, at least, you will be in late 2025 when they claim it’s launching.
And here’s a fun fact—Matt Sernett, the brains behind some of the D&D story magic like Baldur’s Gate, is on board for the narrative. Makes me wonder how much chaos he’ll add to the mix. Should be wild! Anyway, you can wishlist this thing now on various platforms like the Horizon Store, PlayStation Store, or Steam. If that’s your cup of tea, dive in!
