Restoration Games has opened pre-orders for Unmatched: Hellboy, an expansion of the combat game that brings Hellboy, Abe Sapien, Liz Sherman, and Baba Yaga into new scenarios. The basic edition is offered for $50, while the deluxe version reaches $100 and includes additional miniatures and promotional cards. For fans of the character, it represents a tabletop leisure alternative, although there is no confirmed release date yet. In short, an opportunity to enjoy Hellboy, but with patience for its debut.
Asymmetric mechanics and quality components in the expansion 🎲
The expansion maintains Unmatched's asymmetric combat system, where each hero has their own deck and specific abilities. Hellboy offers an offensive style with heavy-hitting attacks, while Liz Sherman manages fire with area effects. Abe Sapien focuses on mobility and board control, and Baba Yaga introduces summoning mechanics with her hut. The new scenarios include thematic elements that alter the terrain layout. The deluxe edition adds more detailed miniatures and exclusive cards not found in the standard version. The balance between characters seems carefully considered, although it will need to be tested on the tabletop.
Pre-order now and wait patiently like a patient monster ⏳
If you pre-order today, you'll have plenty of time to clean the house, learn to cook, or even finish that pending book. Restoration Games hasn't given a date, so you can start getting your wallet ready and a calendar with plenty of margin. Meanwhile, Hellboy fans can debate whether it's worth paying double for miniatures that, in the end, will end up on a shelf gathering dust. But hey, the excitement of pre-ordering is free. Patience, on the other hand, comes at a high price.
