About the game

What is Battle for Biternia?

Battle for Biternia combines the aesthetic of classic role-playing video games with the gameplay of the wildly popular Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) genre. Take control of a team of four heroes and do battle with your opponent. Take down their defensive towers and destroy their Elemental Crystal to win! Each of the 19 Heroes is different, with unique powers that they can gain over the course of the game. Each turn, you will play cards in secret to determine what each of your heroes will do. If you can anticipate your opponent's moves and play the right cards, you will come out on top. Want to try before your buy? Check out the Battle for Biternia Tabletop Simulator mod!
