About the Game

Skygard Arena is a turn-based tactics game with a lore-rich single-player campaign and a multiplayer PvP arena mode. Pick your favorite Champions, build your strongest team, and claim victory through smart positioning and ability combos!

Move your Champions to victory

Use your Champions' movement action and dash spells wisely to gain tactical advantages:

  • Find the perfect angle to land devastating spells

  • Capture objectives and use them to redeploy your team

  • Pick up orbs, gain ultimate charges and unleash ultimate spells to turn the tide of battle!

Combine your Champions' strengths

Each of your Champions has a unique set of abilities. Use them in a smart way every turn to maximize your team’s impact.

Adapt your strategy to every situation

The single-player campaign offers a custom scenario for each mission. With large-scale battles, skirmishes to capture objectives, infiltration missions, base-defense challenges and boss fights, you will be challenged as you progress through the story. Adapt your team and tactics to each situation to come out victorious.

Build your own dream team

Pick 3 Champions and a Persona for each. Each Persona comes with a unique set of spells. Equip your Champions with Relics granting game-changing passive bonuses, depending on the role you want them to play.

Create synergistic teams that fit your playstyle. There are over 500,000 different team compositions to experiment with!

Five Factions

Follow the five Factions of Skygard in epic encounters for the future of their world. Katia, bold Elves and Dwarves who united to build a flying city. The Scarlet Empire and their relentless thirst for conquest. The Clouds Clan, an alliance of free nomad tribes. The peaceful Guardians, protectors of ancient magic. The zealots of the Silver Kingdom blinded by their faith in their angel queen.

Conquer the Arena, conquer the world

Bring your best team to the Arena and battle other players in PvP matches lasting 15-20 minutes. Play Ranked mode to climb the global leaderboard or Casual matches with your friends to show them who’s the best tactician!

Challenge a smart AI opponent inspired by chess engines

Test your strategies against an AI which plans their moves several turns in advance. Choose among 4 difficulty levels, with the last level featuring teams built by us for the most challenging experience!

Battle in style

Enjoy custom animations and visual effects for each Champion’s ability. Immerse yourself in the 90-minute soundtrack created by composer Raphaël Joffres and get in the flow as you ponder crucial decisions in the Arena.
