Unmatched: The Witcher – Realms Fall – Tactical Witcher Fighting Game

Enter the world of The Witcher with Unmatched: The Witcher – Realms Fall, a tactical miniature fighting game featuring powerful sorceresses, the leader of the Wild Hunt and some of the most distinctive mechanics in the Unmatched series.

Play as Yennefer & Triss, Philippa or Eredin, each with a completely different play style, and battle across two Witcher-themed battlefields. With tactical movement, hand management, unique abilities and no-luck combat resolution, every fight rewards careful planning and clever card play.

For 2–3 players, ages 9+, with games taking around 30 minutes, Realms Fall can be played with other Unmatched sets for even more match-ups.

What Is Unmatched: The Witcher – Realms Fall?

Unmatched: The Witcher – Realms Fall brings four major Witcher characters into the Unmatched system through three playable hero decks.

Choose Yennefer or Triss as your hero, with the other becoming your sidekick, command Eredin and his Red Riders, or take control of Philippa, a powerful sorceress who always seems to have another plan.

Each fighter has their own cards, abilities and tactical approach, making every match-up feel different. Realms Fall also introduces a distinctive map mechanic across its two battlefields, Streets of Novigrad and Naglfar.

How to Play

Unmatched is built around tactical movement and card-based combat.

On your turn, you normally perform two actions, choosing from manoeuvre, attack and scheme actions. Move your fighter into position, launch attacks, play powerful schemes and use your character's unique abilities to gain an advantage.

When combat occurs, both players secretly choose cards and resolve the fight according to their effects. There is no dice rolling, so positioning, timing and knowing when to commit your strongest cards are crucial.

Every hero deck works differently, so learning how your fighter operates — and understanding what your opponent is trying to achieve — is a major part of the game.

Who Is It For?

The Witcher fans will find plenty of character-specific abilities and thematic touches, while Unmatched players get three very different fighters to add to their collection.

It's particularly suited to players who enjoy tactical two-player games, asymmetric abilities, hand management, miniature combat and competitive card games.

Because it plays with 2–3 players, it works particularly well for head-to-head battles while also supporting three-player games.

Meet the Fighters

Yennefer & Triss

Yennefer and Triss introduce a unique Unmatched mechanic: choose who will be your hero and who will be your sidekick.

If you choose Yennefer, her magical abilities allow her to boost attacks by discarding cards from her hand, making her a formidable offensive spellcaster.

Choose Triss, and her schemes can deal additional damage to an adjacent fighter after resolving their effect.

The decision changes how the pair plays, giving you two distinct approaches from the same deck.

Eredin

Eredin, King of the Wild Hunt, commands his Red Riders into battle.

His Riders are more than simple support. Once they have all been defeated, Eredin becomes Enraged, increasing the value of his attack and defence cards and improving his movement.

The result is a fighter who becomes increasingly dangerous as the battle develops.

Philippa

Philippa combines powerful sorcery with careful planning.

Her ability lets her replenish her hand at the end of her turn, helping her maintain access to cards and giving her plenty of options as the battle unfolds.

She rewards players who enjoy having answers available and controlling the flow of the game.

Main Mechanics

Each fighter has a completely different deck, abilities and tactical identity.

Card-Driven Combat

Position your hero carefully to control spaces, pursue opponents and avoid dangerous attacks.

Hand Management
Deciding which cards to play and which to save is essential to success.

Unique Hero Abilities
