Valiant and Catalyst Games will be debuting a new deck building game at Gen Con 2016 that features an interactive story and collectibles figures. Following the success of the Valiant Universe RPG, the new table-top Valiant Universe: The Deck Building Game has a first series of figures that include X-O Manowar, Faith, Livewire, Bloodshot and Ninjak as well as 200 unique playing cards.

But the game includes the following interactive story:

Deep beneath Alcatraz prison lies a top secret base operated by the paramilitary contractor known as Project Rising Spirit. Known only as "the Facility," P.R.S.'s secret bunker is armed with enough power to change the world—or destroy it. When word of the subterranean facility leaks, the Valiant Universe's most powerful groups, including The Harbinger Foundation, G.A.T.E., and the Harbinger Renegades, race to acquire the deadly possessions and put the fate of the world in their hands! With a cataclysmic confrontation imminent, take control with your warring team and claim P.R.S.'s base for yourself! As the Valiant Universe's greatest heroes fight at your command, move your superhero miniatures through an interactive facility grid to acquire cards for an unbeatable deck and attack your opponents in a world-shaking battle for supremacy!

The game comes with the following items:

5 superhero miniatures
5 Zone of Influence cards
5 Organization cards
25 Basic cards
25 Shutdown cards
15 Power cards
175 Sector cards
1 Facility Durability Tracker
1 six-sided die
1 sheet of cardboard counters
