Publisher The Four Winds Entertainment has officially announced the launch date for their upcoming indie title. NeoDuel: Backpack Monsters, a thrilling PvP auto-battler that merges strategic inventory management with monster taming, is set to launch on Steam on September 30th.

Developed by the Turkish indie duo Rogue Duck and DiceHit Games, the game introduces a unique concept with Cosmions — cosmic monsters that players must strategically place, evolve, and fuse in their backpacks to create powerful and distinct duel builds. The game promises a fresh take on the auto-battling genre by offering endless possibilities for strategic gameplay.

"NeoDuel: Backpack Monsters is our ode to the strategy and auto-battling genre. We wanted to create a game where players could experiment with builds, create unique combinations, and play on their own time. The Cosmions add a layer of depth, allowing for a plethora of possibilities in every duel," explains Bahadır, lead developer at DiceHit Games.

Accompanying the announcement is a new trailer that offers players a first look at the Cosmions in action, highlighting what makes this game a unique and engaging experience. The vibrant visuals and dynamic gameplay aim to draw in strategy enthusiasts and casual players alike.

Launching on Steam for €11.99, with a 10% discount at release, NeoDuel: Backpack Monsters is poised to capture the attention of players eager to dive into its strategic depths.
