It looks like our globetrotting writer Anderson Han can give himself a well-deserved pat on the back. One of his top picks for Korean mobile games, eagerly anticipated for a global launch, is now set to make that leap! Trickcal Re:Vive, alongside other highlighted games, has been making waves, especially after developer Bilibili Games made a significant impact at the Taipei Games Show with the announcement of its global release.
So, what exactly is Trickcal Re:Vive? This game is a refreshing twist in the mobile gaming scene, offering a turn-based card-collecting RPG experience that stands out from the often melodramatic releases. Set in an absurdist world, players will step into the shoes of a protagonist who unexpectedly finds themselves leading a global religion, recruiting from over fifty unique apostles.
While the premise might sound serious, Trickcal Re:Vive is all about injecting humor into its gameplay. From the charm of anime-style characters engaging in adorable antics to clever nods at popular titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto, the game is packed with both sublime and hilariously absurd subplots.

Attendees were treated to a specially wrapped Ferrari Itasha, which not only turned heads but also ferried lucky guests around Taipei. Coupled with an abundance of merchandise and the announcement of the global launch, it's clear that Bilibili Games and Epid Games have high expectations for Trickcal Re:Vive as it prepares to hit global storefronts.
As for the release date, we're still in the dark. All we know is that a global release is on the horizon, with development still underway. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say we might see Trickcal Re:Vive launch sometime between late 2025 and early 2026, though a mid-2025 release isn't out of the question either.
