Wildmagic Frontier shows off three-player co-op as Kickstarter soars

Sky Castle Studios has shared an early look at the multiplayer side of Wildmagic Frontier, its character-driven, deck-building tactics RPG, after the game passed its $100,000 Kickstarter goal. The studio announced the news from San Francisco on September 28, 2026. The three-player cooperative adventure brings tactical battles, handcrafted dioramas, and the camaraderie of tabletop game night directly to a desktop browser.

Multiplayer gameplay reveal

The multiplayer highlight reel features comedian Ify Nwadiwe, Jasmine Bhullar, creator and game master of the tabletop roleplaying series DesiQuest, and gaming video creator Jenna Stoeber. The trio teams up to hunt down the Facet of Calamity, a fragment of the Arcane Intelligence that destroyed the once-great Astaran civilization.

A separate developer interview features Teagan Morrison, co-founder and co-president of Sky Castle Studios. Morrison explores the world of Astara and shares the inspirations and design decisions behind the game. Both the gameplay video and the interview are available on YouTube.

How Wildmagic Frontier plays

Players recruit a colorful cast of Companions, craft cards, and build decks around clever combos before taking on tactical battles across detailed dioramas created through physical and 3D sculpting. Adventures can be played solo or cooperatively with up to two friends.

Between expeditions, players return to their Frontier town. Completing quests and forging friendships there unlocks new characters, mechanics, and adventures.

Kickstarter stretch goals

The Kickstarter campaign has raised more than $127,000, surpassing its $100,000 funding goal. Sky Castle Studios is now working toward stretch goals that would expand the adventure with additional companions, new regions, mechanics, and stories.

The next milestone, $150,000, will unlock an Astaran outfit featuring new clothing and decorative pieces for use in Hero Forge, the studio's custom miniature creator.

In response to backer feedback, the campaign has added Duo Epic Edition and Party Epic Edition pledge options. These include two and three game codes, respectively, alongside Epic Edition rewards, making it easier for backers to bring friends along. Wildmagic Frontier can be found on Kickstarter and runs through October 10, 2026.
