As I am sure you already know: We’re bringing a brand new single-player mode to Lightseekers, the aptly-named Adventure Mode!

This new mode alongside our brand new Uprising Digital Release AND Draft Mode will be available on May 8th. This is comfortably the biggest update we’ve EVER done for Lightseekers, and it’s right around the corner!

Adventure Mode will be bringing over 200 stages to Lightseekers, and along the way, you’ll meet the creatures of the world; from the stalwart Everok to the playful Mari to the tempestuous Kreebal as you uncover the true secrets of Tantos.

Don’t forget that this update comes with 202 extra cards in Uprising, meaning that not only will there be new features and content, but there will also be a brand-new set of cards to play with too!

We hope you’re ready because hu...

Hey Lightseekers!

The sun is shining, lambs are baaaaaaing – let’s sit inside and play games! To celebrate the Easter holiday period we have a brand new campaign for you, featuring 3 puzzling bosses with 1 unique reward from besting them.

Here are some tips about the bosses and what you can expect: 

*This event includes a new keyword “Stubborn” – This simply means the card cannot be removed, returned or made dormant.*

Boss 1: Lalu the Rascal

Starting fairly simple, Lalu runs a relatively straightforward deck, but every few turns her “Stop for Chocolate” buff may become a problem. While it’s on the fourth corner, anyone who plays a card (so you on your turn too) will heal her for 2 per card played. Don’t feed the greed!

Boss 2: Everok Egg Cracker

Starting to ramp up now, the Egg Cracker has 3 “Lovely Eggs” in play, right next to ...

Hey Lightseekers,

We know you have been waiting for news from us, and today we can finally bring a monumental update to you. We’ve been working hard behind the scenes on what the future of Lightseekers looks like, and now we can share that with all of you.

Our latest expansion, Uprising will be releasing both Physically and Digitally. The digital release of Lightseekers will release early May, and this is going to include all of the new Uprising cards AND 2 massive new modes AND full joycon support for Nintendo Switch.

We’re proud to announce that we are bringing a brand new single-player Adventure to Lightseekers. This massive, completely free story-driven mode will launch alongside the Uprising digital release, bringing a mammoth set of content to you when Uprising launches in May.

And that isn’t all, we’re also bringing Draft Mode to Lightseekers in the same r...

We had plans to make some balancing adjustments to a bunch of cards alongside the Uprising release, when the new Standard format goes into effect. This would include a variety of Classic cards, but also a few cards that would then be reprinted alongside Uprising with their updated text. However, due to the delays to Uprising, we have decided to make these changes in the digital game sooner, as we don’t want these cards affecting the digital game negatively for longer than necessary.

The following changes only apply to the digital game – these are due to go live 21st February. 

These changes will be taking place instead of a dedicated version of the physical ‘Classic Mode’ where you only have limited access to the Classic card pool.

Over the course of the first 6 months of 2019, players will be battling it out for 1st place in the Lightseekers Ranked Ladder for the coveted Player Invitational Invite. As we are already through January’s Ranked Play Season, we would like to share with you how we will be calculating that all important top spot.

To do this, we will be using a points system that is used exclusively for the Digital Ranked Ladder.

-There will be 20 points awarded to first, 19 to second and so on until you get to 20th, who will be awarded 1 point. No further points will be awarded beyond that.

-Each season, we will tally all of your points together and provide a leaderboard for the month, as well as a lifetime total to see who’s at the top!

As of February 4th 2019, we will be introducing a balance change to the card ‘Geode Hatchling’. This change will affect both physical and digital play.

This is a card that has been on our radar for some time, given that it is able to recycle other cards. Typically these kinds of cards include the keyword Burn in their card text to prevent ‘infinite’ card cycling (as seen with Root Singer or, more recently, Storm Calling). With Geode Hatchling, there have been previous instances of this card causing undesirable game states, especially when paired with Stubborn Everok. However, these cases have been sporadic and strategies revolving around such interactions have been difficult to pull off.

As the game has matured and the community has grown, players have been able to put together and refine these strategies much faster, resulting in ...

It’s been a very busy time here at PlayFusion, and we are thrilled at the response to our PC and Switch releases.

Despite fantastic feedback to our Switch launch, we understand a major priority has been for us to develop and release controller support for the Switch. Because of this we are looking to implement Classic mode during next season and thank you all for your patience.

We wish to implement classic mode alongside our Switch controller update – So all our players can enjoy the best and latest experience at the same time.

Today for our Lightseekers community, we have another update that’s now available to download on your platform of choice. This will give you, the players, a better experience with Lightseekers and an update on changes you have wanted to see in the recent discussions.

We start with our “New Tutorial Flow” – this gives the first-time user a smoother introduction to the art of playing Lightseekers. If you’re already a seasoned veteran to the world of Tantos, the option to skip the tutorial and head straight into battle with your chosen hero is available as well.

Next up, we’ve made a change to Lone Shark Reefi, our Storm Hero from the Lightseekers Kindred set.
From this update onward Lone Shark Reefi will now read:

“Reduce the first damage received per turn by 1 while you have no buffs in play. You cannot wield items”

Orders of Tantos,

Today we give you all a preview on some of the cards which have become retired; these and others are now found under the card database legal filter.
Some of these are and will always be fan favourites, but remember just because a card is Retired, it doesn’t mean you won’t see it again.

This will allow new and existing players to build exciting, adventurous decks moving forward in particular, around the upcoming Uprising set.

So here is a small handful of the cards heading towards our Retired list.
