Description: Experience The Witcher universe in an entirely new way with Gwent: The Legendary Card Game.
Inspired by the iconic mini-game from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, this official physical edition brings the strategic, faction-based card game to your tabletop.
Gwent challenges players to engage in a high-stakes battle of wit, power, and tactics, pitting factions like the Northern Realms, Scoia’tael, Monsters, and Nilfgaard against each other.
With an easy-to-learn yet hard-to-master ruleset, Gwent is accessible for beginners but offers deep strategy for veterans, allowing players to create and adapt decks to outsmart their opponents.
Event Format: The format will be a single elimination tournament. 16 players will be split into two pods of 8 people and will face each other, best of three, in full games of Gwent. The winner will progress and will compete against other winners in the pod till we have a victor and then the winners of each pod will form a top cut and will face each other in a final.
