BANDAI Resident Evil Deck Building Game: Mercenaries Expansion – Standalone & Expansion

Mercenaries Expansion Overview

The Mercenaries expansion for the Resident Evil Deck Building Game brings a pulse-pounding twist to your tabletop sessions. It can be enjoyed as a stand-alone experience or used as an expansion for any Resident Evil DBG title, letting your crew dive into new strategic possibilities without interchangeable rules friction.

At the heart of the expansion is a fresh batch of Skill cards. Draft these at the start of the game to nudge your Character toward a dramatically different play style. As you push forward, your team learns from both triumphs and missteps, using collected experience to activate Skills that sharpen your edge in every encounter. This evolving approach invites you to tailor your tactics to the moment, whether you prefer precision strikes, cunning avoidance, or bold, high-impact actions.

Mercenaries also introduces three distinct Mansions, each with its own flavor of challenge. Will you face the unruly Ganados horde, the eerie Illuminados, or the relentless Majini? Each Mansion attacks players in a unique way, delivering a wealth of combinations that boost replay value and keep your campaigns feeling fresh no matter how often you play.
