If you saw our post about Asmodee Digital’s big Gen Con Announcement in August, then you are probably already aware that Asmodee Digital has a massive number of digital board game releases planned for 2017 and 2018.
Today they’ve used Essen Spiel 2017 to update this list and reveal new details and trailers for highly-anticipated titles like Catan Stories, Catan VR and Scythe, as well as announce an awesome new addition…Onitama!
Listed as “upcoming releases” on the Gen Con info, Smash Up and Ticket to Ride: First Journey have now been released.
Notably absent from this list (compared to the Gen Con list) is Gloom, from Atlas Games, which seems to have been removed. Perhaps this project has been pushed out or it’ll be a surprise release like Harald: A Game of Influence was.
Needless to say, this is an impressive catalog of games that I will be thrilled to have on my digital bookshelf.
I am super-stoked about the addition of Onitama, as I love my two-player strategy games.
Below is all of the exciting the info that we were sent by Asmodee Digital:
To be released in 2017
Catan Stories (Catan GmbH / Catan Studio)
