Enter the futuristic universe of Red Rising, based on the book series by Pierce Brown featuring a dystopian society divided into 14 castes. You represent a house attempting to rise to power as you piece together an assortment of followers (your hand of cards). Will you break the chains of the Society or embrace the dominance of the Golds?
Red Rising is a hand-management, combo-building game for 1-6 players (45-60 minute playing time). You start with a hand of 5 cards, and on your turn you will deploy 1 of those cards to a location on the board, activating that card’s deploy benefit. You will then gain the top card from another location (face up) or the deck (face down), gaining that location's benefit and adding the card to your hand as you enhance your end-game point total.
If you enjoy Fantasy Realms (combo-building), Libertalia (hand management), and Gugong (removing and gaining cards), we think you’ll enjoy Red Rising.
This is the 2026 version of Red Rising, which has the following component changes: smaller box (20x16x6cm), non-linen cards (including 21 gold foil cards), a natural rubber playmat (instead of a cardboard board), wooden influence tokens (instead of plastic), and 2 metal tokens (Sovereign and first player).
PLEASE NOTE: This is an English-language product. See our website for more information on localization partners.
