Clash of Clans Board Game Sets Kickstarter Launch Date with New Trailer

Earlier this year, Supercell and Maestro Media unveiled their new board game project, Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid. This brand-new tabletop version of the game brings the mobile game’s fantasy world to a new format. And now, the project has finally revealed its Kickstarter launch date. That means Clash of Clans fans will soon be able to back the project to ensure it becomes a reality. Not only that, but they will be able to snag bonus rewards, including a Golden Barbarian King mini!

Clash of Clans is wildly popular as a mobile game. And these days, that means it’s high time for the IP to be reimagined in board game form. Like many board game projects these days, the Clash of Clans tabletop game will take advantage of crowdfunding to get ready for production and release. The project comes from Maestro Media, a company with prior experience bringing pop culture icons like Hello Kitty to the tabletop world. For an early look at the concept for its latest project, check out the Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid trailer below:

Kickstarter Details for Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid

As the trailer reveals in animated form, the board game version of the iconic mobile game will utilize minis to really bring the battle to life. Players will build their defenses, deploy offensive units, and raid one another’s bases in this fast-paced tabletop translation of the Clash of Clans mobile game. The game comes from designers Eric M. Lang and Ken Gruhl. Both have several successful projects under their belt already, with Lang working on Marvel: United and Star Wars: The Card Game and Gruhl heading up Life in Reterra.
