Trickcal Unveils 'ReVive' at Taipei Games Show

Trickcal Re:Vive, the absurdist, turn-based, card-collecting RPG from Bilibili Games, is heading for a global mobile launch! This follows its successful showcase at the Taipei Games Show, where it made a significant splash.

Anderson Han, a gaming writer, correctly predicted this global launch, highlighting Trickcal Re:Vive among his top picks for Korean mobile games. The Taipei Games Show announcement wasn't just about the global release; Bilibili Games made a broader impact.

But what exactly is Trickcal Re:Vive? It's a unique departure from typical melodramatic RPGs. Set in an absurdist world, players recruit over fifty apostles and lead a surprisingly successful global religion.

Despite the epic scope, the game boasts a strong sense of humor. Expect cute characters, anime tropes, and references ranging from Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto to a plethora of quirky subplots.

A Grand Entrance

The Taipei Games Show saw Trickcal Re:Vive showcased in spectacular fashion, including a Ferrari Itasha (a car decorated with anime-style artwork) transporting lucky attendees. This, along with a large amount of merchandise and the global launch announcement, signals high expectations from Bilibili and Epid Games.

A precise release date remains unconfirmed. While a global release is planned, development continues. A reasonable estimate would be late 2025 or early 2026, though a mid-2025 launch isn't impossible.
