Trickcal: ReVive to get global launch and major fanfare at Taipei Games Show

It looks like our globetrotting writer Anderson Han can give himself a well-deserved pat on the back because one of his top picks for Korean mobile releases is now set to launch globally. Trickcal Re:Vive, which was spotlighted alongside other notable titles, has made waves at the Taipei Games Show, courtesy of developer Bilibili Games. They didn't just announce the global launch; they made a grand entrance with it!

So, what exactly is Trickcal Re:Vive? This game is a refreshing twist on the typical mobile RPG scene. It's a turn-based, card-collecting RPG that dives deep into an absurdist world. You'll step into the shoes of a protagonist who unexpectedly finds themselves leading a global religion and recruiting from over fifty unique apostles.

While epic adventures can often be quite serious, Trickcal Re:Vive brings a playful sense of humor to the table. Expect to see a mix of animesque tropes, with cute characters up to cute antics, alongside nods to games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto, all woven into a tapestry of both sublime and hilariously stupid subplots.

Rev up your engines The over-the-top absurdity of Trickcal Re:Vive was vividly displayed at the Taipei Games Show. Attendees were treated to a ride in a specially wrapped Ferrari Itasha cruising around Taipei, complete with heaps of merchandise. This, along with the announcement of the upcoming global launch, signals Bilibili Games and Epic Games' high expectations for Trickcal Re:Vive as it prepares to hit global storefronts.

As for the release date, it's still a bit of a mystery. All we know is that a global release is in the works, with ongoing development. If I had to take a guess, I'd say we might see it in late 2025 or early 2026, but don't rule out a mid-2025 launch either. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates on this exciting title!
