UNLIGHT:Revive is a free-to-play card game that launched on December 6, 2024 and has been receiving continuous updates ever since. New character cards have been added on a roughly bi-weekly to monthly basis — including Ariane (May 26, 2026), Clovis (April 28, 2026), Hugo (April 14, 2026), Tyrell R5 (March 31, 2026), Noella (June 30, 2026), and Rudia R5 (July 14, 2026). The game also runs rotating limited-time campaigns and events, such as "UNLIGHT Fes. 2026" and the "Neo iComic Echo2" participation campaign (which ended August 18, 2026, with serial codes valid through December 31, 2026). On April 10, 2026, the developer published "Development News Vol.1," and followed up on June 26, 2026 with "Development News Vol.2&3," both explicitly stating that various new features are actively in development and promising future updates. The most recent developer communication was on August 18, 2026 — just one day before today's date — confirming this is an actively operated game with no indication of any planned conclusion to its content cycle.

About this game

The witch known as the "Goddess of Fire," who resides in the "Mountains of Madness," is attempting to create an army of the dead to exact revenge. The players are doll-like beings created by the "Goddess of Fire." They gather warriors who died with regrets in the real world and aim to use them as a fighting force to invade the surface world.

In a world full of war, the dead with various pasts are gathered. Some took their own lives, some were murdered; nobles, poor people, and outlaws—all have different pasts and origins. They cooperate with the witch and her servants to return to the real world once more.

The story revolves around various mysteries such as "the Goddess of Fire's true purpose," "Can she return to the real world?" "What is the relationship between the player and the warrior?" and "The appearance of a new force."

This is a story-centered competitive training card game. Players explore and conquer quest mode (single player) with character cards to obtain treasure chests, train and customize their character cards, and explore deck construction that suits their strategy, such as focusing on preemptive action, attack, defense, or overall balance. Not only do trained character cards increase their HP and attack/defense stats, but they also learn special moves unique to each character, which, when conditions are right, can deal significant damage and battle effects to enemies.

Deck construction is also a crucial factor when battling other players in Duel Mode (PvP), so build your deck carefully yet boldly.
