"Battle Realms Zen Edition" Full Release Out Now - Devs Introduce Trading Card System

Greetings, Warriors! This week marks two significant milestones for Battle Realms: Zen Edition—our official full release and the long- awaited introduction of Steam Trading Cards (profile badges, backgrounds and chat emojis)! Collect cards featuring iconic original Battle Realms artwork, craft badges, and unlock BR themed profile backgrounds and emoticons.

For this collection, we decided to honor Battle Realms' original artwork that has defined the game's unique identity over the years. Thanks to Steam's ecosystem, these classic designs are now preserved and made accessible to a wider audience, allowing both new and veteran players to collect and showcase pieces of Battle Realms history. We hope these additions will add another layer of enjoyment to your experience with the game.
All the mentioned items are also available in the Steam Points Shop.

Note: We've spotted an internal error within Steam that prevents displaying the animated Ronin sticker in the chat, we'll be working on fixing it shortly. Don't hesitate to grab it if anything!

About the Launch Delay
The release was delayed from January 20th to today due to unforeseen circumstances that required our immediate attention. While we couldn't provide updates during this period, we want to thank you for your patience as we worked through these challenges.

As previously announced, with our transition from Early Access, the pricing has changed as follows:
  • Early Access Price: $9.99 (previous)
  • Full Release Price: $14.99 (from January 28 onward)
Regional pricing remains available across all territories that Steam allows it for.

About Badge Creation
If you're new to Steam's Trading Card system, here's some important information about our badge design. We've created unique clan-themed badges (except for Level 1 and Foil badges). However, due to Steam's badge progression system, there are some things to keep in mind:
  • Each time you craft a badge, it automatically progresses to the next level
  • You cannot display previous badge levels on your profile
  • Once you craft a higher-level badge, you cannot go back to display earlier versions
  • This is how Steam originally handles it, and we have no way of changing it.
This means you should consider which clan's badge design you want to display before continuing to craft higher levels.
Note: Foil badges are separate and work differently - they're a special single-level badge that requires foil cards to craft. For more details about the Trading Card system, please check out the FAQ.


Moving Forward
As we transition out of Early Access, our focus will remain on ensuring Battle Realms: Zen Edition provides the best possible experience for our community. We're grateful for the incredible journey we've shared with you all, and we thank you for helping shape this game into what it is today.

Thank you for being part of the Battle Realms history! Stay tuned for more updates!
