Gods Unchained, the Ethereum NFT trading card game built on scaling network Immutable X, is set to release its latest expansion "Tower of Dread" on October 10, Immutable Games announced Tuesday.
The expansion features 40 new cards, including seven legendary cards with corresponding one-of-a-kind "Mythic" variants. It continues the game's narrative as players face off against the character Thaeriel in what the company describes as "the largest battle to date."
A key addition is a new gameplay mechanic allowing players to "destroy" their cards to earn points toward discounts on expansion packs. The release also includes two new game boards and trinkets themed around gothic horror.

"Tower of Dread marks another step in our continued march to make Gods Unchained into the game we all know it can be," said game designer Bryn Welch, in a statement.

In the shadow of the Tower of Dread 🏰, Narcilla rules the Dreadwood, leading the Pursuers who guard the forest 🌲 and track all who approach.
Like the previous expansion, Dread Awakening, Tower of Dread continues the collaboration between Gods Unchained and another Immutable game, Guild of Guardians. The company has described the crossover as "the first steps towards full interoperability of a gaming ecosystem."

”As we continue to improve card text and refine our processes, our small team is excited to bridge the gap and tie into GoG and future IP collabs,” Welch added.
Gods Unchained is free to play across iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac with optional NFT cards available.
