We thought that Les Editions Albert René and Microids was crazy love for life, but it seems that there is infidelity in the air. In a press release sent by Nacon, we learn that a new Asterix & Obelix game is coming in the coming months. Her name ? Asterix & Obelix Heroes, scheduled for PC, PS5, Xbox Series, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch for the month of September 2023. It will be a card game with RPG mechanics in which the player will have to collect his heroes favorite Gauls to then prepare his attack against the Romans. A completely new concept for the license which allows you to vary the pleasures and change genre. It’s being developed by Jumpgate studio gameXcite, which is in charge, and it’s not the first time the company has worked with Nacon.
This new partnership between Nacon and Les Editions Albert René seems in any case delighted with the two entities, who are delighted to work together. “We are working closely with Jumpgate AB on different projects. We are delighted to collaborate on this one, which reaches millions of fans around the world and all generations” declares Alain Falc, Chairman and CEO of NACON. “Asterix & Obelix Heroes is the most successful project based on the Asterix license that we have developed so far. Thanks to the hours of combat and card collection it offers, it is the perfect game to please players on consoles and PCs!” explains Harald Riegler, CEO of Jumpgate AB. We are only waiting for the first images and trailer to get a better idea of the game. For now, we only have the logo.
