ReVive Set for Global Launch at Taipei Games Show

It looks like Anderson Han, our globetrotting writer, can give himself a well-deserved pat on the back. One of his top picks for Korean mobile games, Trickcal Re:Vive, is set to make its global launch. Developer Bilibili Games made a big impression at the Taipei Games Show with the announcement that Trickcal Re:Vive will soon be available worldwide.

So, what exactly is Trickcal Re:Vive? This game stands out as a turn-based, card-collecting RPG that offers a refreshing twist from the typical melodramatic releases. It plunges players into an absurdist world where you take on the role of a protagonist who unexpectedly becomes the leader of a global religion. With over fifty unique apostles to recruit, the game promises a rich and varied experience.

Despite the epic nature of its storyline, Trickcal Re:Vive doesn't take itself too seriously. It's infused with humor, drawing from anime tropes of adorable characters and making playful nods to popular titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto. The game also weaves in a mix of sublime and silly subplots, ensuring there's never a dull moment.

Rev up your engines The over-the-top absurdity of Trickcal Re:Vive was on full display at the Taipei Games Show. The game was showcased alongside a specially wrapped Ferrari Itasha, which took lucky guests on rides around Taipei. Alongside this, there were heaps of merchandise and the exciting announcement of the game's global launch. This indicates that Bilibili Games and Epid Games have high expectations for Trickcal Re:Vive as it prepares to hit global storefronts.

As for the release date, it's still up in the air. All we know is that a global release is in the works, with development ongoing. My best guess would be a late 2025 or early 2026 launch, though a mid-2025 release isn't out of the question either.
