About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to expand the apocalypse! "Planet Apocalypse: The Void Pack" isn't just another box; it's a supercharged upgrade for those already enjoying the chaos of the base game. If you think you've seen it all, think again, because this expansion brings a brand-new arsenal to the fight against demonic hordes.

What's in this package? We've got new miniatures of demons and infernal lords to give heroes more trouble, plus brand-new hero figures and their respective roles on new sheets. To make the battlefield even more interesting, two new maps enter the fray: the Launch Pad and the Moon Base. Imagine the scene! And it doesn't stop there: a robust collection of cards, including "Gift Cards" (are they gifts from good or evil?), Legion cards for powerful summons, Region cards that change the game, and a bunch of "Trooper" cards with military units and even some "Evangelicals" and "Gang" members for that special touch.

The big kicker for this expansion is that it also serves as an official crossover with Cthulhu Wars. This means the miniatures you get here can be used in that other cosmic horror universe, opening up a world of possibilities for those who collect both games. It's Petersen Games showing how to do a crossover right!

"The Void Pack" elevates the "Planet Apocalypse" experience with more component variety and new ways to face the end of the world. If you're looking for more challenges, more minis, and the chance to mix your favorite universes, this expansion is a treat. Remember that, like many games in the genre, there might be language dependency, so keep an eye out for necessary translations to make the most of it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

6 questions
Do I need the base Planet Apocalypse game to use this expansion?
Yes, absolutely! 'The Void Pack' is an expansion, so it adds content to the base game but doesn't work on its own.
How many players does this expansion support?
The expansion maintains the player count of the base game, which is 1 to 5 players. It's fully cooperative!
What exactly comes in this box besides the miniatures?
Besides miniatures of demons, lords, and heroes, you'll find new maps, hero and demon sheets, and a bunch of new cards (Gift, Legion, Region, and Trooper).
Are the miniatures compatible with Cthulhu Wars?
Yes! This is one of the big features. It's an official crossover that allows you to use the miniatures from this expansion in Cthulhu Wars.
Does the game get harder with this expansion?
The expansion adds more variety and challenges, with new enemies and scenarios, which can increase the difficulty and replayability, depending on how you use the new elements.
Do I need to translate anything to play?
There might be language dependency, especially on the cards. It's recommended to have a translated spreadsheet or translated cards for a smoother experience.
