The mobile port of MegaCrit's megahit Slay the Spire is definitely one of the most highly anticipated ones of this year. The roguelike card game originally launched for PC in 2017, where it received tons of praise from critics and players alike thanks to its incredibly addicting gameplay and clever systems.
We have made a list of mobile alternatives for Slay the Spire before, but of course, nothing can compare to the real thing. Luckily, it seems we won't have too long before we can get our hands on that one. In response to a fan’s tweet last week, MegaCrit mentioned that it is already done with the porting and is now only waiting for the game to go through the quality assurance process. It is "solely in [their] publisher's hands at this point.” The tweet was first discovered by a Reddit user who goes by the name paxxlaws.
Before you get too excited, we do have to note this process can last pretty long. Yes, we will probably see Slay the Spire mobile launching before the end of the year, but in all likelihood, it’s still a few months away at the very least. Of course, nothing is confirmed at the moment, so we’ll have to wait for an official announcement.
Nevertheless, that the port is still good shape is still a piece of exciting news, given that Slay the Spire is one of the best – if not the best – roguelike card games available on the market right now. With its massive collection of cards to unlock, several playable characters, and virtually countless ways to experiment, it is the kind of game you can invest a hundred hours into.
Slay the Spire is currently available for PC and Nintendo Switch. As for the mobile port, we will keep you updated as soon as there is more information, so don’t forget to stay tuned!
