About the game
What you do in a play session
Prepare for an epic Marvel showdown in Marvel Dice Throne: X-Men! In this electrifying game, you'll step into the shoes of four iconic mutants: Wolverine, Storm, Psylocke, and Iceman. Each hero is meticulously designed to deliver an authentic experience, letting you truly embody your favorite character. With innovative mechanics and asymmetrical powers, these mutants bring an extra thrill to the already beloved Dice Throne series. The game is a whirlwind of fast-paced plays, where skillful card usage and lucky dice rolls determine the victor. You can engage in 1v1 duels, team up for 2v2 battles, face off in 3v3 showdowns, or dive into a chaotic free-for-all. Attack your rivals and unleash special abilities by rolling your hero's unique set of five dice. Accumulate combat points to activate powerful cards that can permanently upgrade your hero, apply status effects, or even influence your opponents' and allies' dice. Best of all, all these new X-Men are fully compatible with any other hero from the Dice Throne universe, opening up endless combinations and battles.
