In a significant announcement for fans of roguelike deckbuilders, Spitfire Interactive and Spicy Koala have revealed their latest project: Hordes of Fate: A Hand of Fate Adventure.
Scheduled for release in Q2 2026, the game will launch first on PC, followed by console versions, including the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2.
This marks the return of the acclaimed Hand of Fate series nearly a decade after it helped define the roguelike deckbuilding genre. Hordes of Fate is being developed by Spitfire Interactive, whose team includes the original creators behind the celebrated Hand of Fate games.
Teaming up with Spicy Koala—the publishing division of Yodo1—the collaboration aims to deliver a compelling new entry in the franchise.
Spicy Koala's resources and expertise are set to elevate the project, ensuring a high-quality experience for both veteran players and newcomers to the series. The game introduces players to a grimdark world where they can choose from four distinctive characters, each equipped with unique abilities and playstyles.
Players will face relentless waves of monsters, with gameplay blending action-packed auto-shooting and deckbuilding mechanics.
The strategic selection of equipment and ability cards offered throughout each run promises deep replayability.
Players can further strengthen their chosen hero by stacking synergistic upgrades and uncovering branching encounters, all while being guided by the enigmatic Dealer. A crucial element of the series, the Dealer is once again voiced by acclaimed actor Anthony Skordi, whose performances in Star Wars Battlefront II, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, and Mass Effect 3 have earned him widespread recognition.
As narrator, dungeon master, and adversary, Skordi's return promises to enrich the atmospheric quality that fans have come to love from Hand of Fate titles. Morgan Jaffit, director at Spitfire Interactive, underscored the significance of this new chapter in the franchise.
He noted that Hand of Fate remains a cornerstone in the world of roguelike deckbuilders.
According to Jaffit, the team is dedicated to channeling the innovative spirit of the original games—enhancing the auto-shooter genre with advanced deckbuilding systems while remaining true to the experience that has captivated millions of players worldwide. The first official trailer for Hordes of Fate: A Hand of Fate Adventure offers a glimpse into its dark fantasy world, robust character variety, and the signature narration style that defines the series.
More announcements are expected as development progresses toward the highly anticipated launch on PC and consoles, including the Nintendo Switch 2 and other major platforms.
