Full Details on Wingspan Asia Expansion

The upcoming Wingspan Asia Expansion promises to add stunning new elements from across Asia. Players will encounter beautifully illustrated birds from countries like India, China, and Japan, each boasting unique abilities and intriguing trivia. This expansion isn't just about the birds; it also introduces 13 new bonus cards, including two specifically tailored for the Automa mode, enhancing the solo play experience.

Visually, the expansion will feature four new backgrounds, each inspired by diverse Asian landscapes, and eight new player portraits that reflect local cultural influences. These additions will not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also deepen the cultural immersion of the game.

A major highlight of the Asia Expansion is the introduction of the Duet Mode, offering an intense one-on-one Wingspan experience. Players will compete on a special Duet Map, vying for habitat spaces and striving to meet different end-of-round goals, adding a new layer of strategic depth to the game.

Audio enhancements are also on the horizon, with four new relaxing music tracks composed by Paweł Górniak. These tracks are designed to complement the serene yet strategic atmosphere of bird-watching and planning your next move.

Tried the Game Yet?

Wingspan, the video game, is an adaptation of Elizabeth Hargrave's acclaimed card-based board game, which first hit digital platforms on PC in 2020, followed by mobile versions in 2021. In the game, players work to attract the best birds to their wildlife preserve, leveraging each bird's unique abilities to create powerful combinations within a limited number of turns. The gameplay mirrors nature, with hawks hunting, pelicans fishing, and geese forming flocks.

While waiting for the Asia Expansion, players can explore the existing European and Oceania expansions, available on the Google Play Store.
