Upcoming Games Like Slay the Spire
The upcoming deckbuilders and tactics-heavy runs that best scratch a Slay the Spire-style itch.

On this page
Looking for upcoming games like Slay the Spire usually means you want more than cards on a screen. You want the pleasure of reading a run, steering a build, and discovering that a weird combination suddenly became the whole plan.
Right now that means starting with Echo Generation 2, Moonsigil Atlas, and Heroes of Magic and Steel. These are not the only relevant games in the lane, but they are the ones that already feel easiest to explain, easiest to remember, and easiest to act on.
These are the upcoming picks that already sound most promising for that kind of decision-rich replay loop.

Echo Generation 2
Embark on a sci-fi deckbuilding RPG odyssey.
Embark on a sci-fi deckbuilding RPG odyssey. Gather your crew, craft powerful decks, and battle across the stars to find your way home. That is why it makes sense for Slay the Spire players: the appeal lives in adaptation, rerouting, and the pleasure of seeing a run sharpen into a plan.
It should make the most sense to players who care about synergy, risk, and the little tactical pivots that make each run feel authored in real time. Echo Generation 2 is also already pinned to 2026-05-27, which gives the follow decision a little more weight than a vague future-window promise. It is also a good example of the kind of follow value this page is trying to reward early. If it still feels like your lane after that, the full Echo Generation 2 page is the best place to keep tracking it before widening back out through Games like Slay the Spire.

Heroes of Magic and Steel
Build a team of 3 heroes, prepare your deck and dominate tactical battles on a hex grid.
Build a team of 3 heroes, prepare your deck and dominate tactical battles on a hex grid. A tactical deckbuilder on a hex grid where every run demands a different strategy. Build a team of 3 heroes, face unique enemy factions, and master a system where every card matters: there's no recyling. That is why it makes sense for Slay the Spire players: the appeal lives in adaptation, rerouting, and the pleasure of seeing a run sharpen into a plan.
