Designers Rob Daviau, Noah Cohen, and Justin D. Jacobson have built four asymmetric decks around each character's strengths. Hellboy's Right Hand of Doom should make for some devastating hits, while Baba Yaga's folklore-driven abilities promise something unlike anything the series has offered before.
Rob Daviau co-created the Unmatched system and is the mind behind the Legacy game genre (Risk Legacy, Pandemic Legacy). Under his direction, the series has grown to include Jurassic Park dinosaurs, Marvel heroes, and Bruce Lee. Hellboy has been one of the community's longest-standing requests.

Unmatched: Hellboy is set for 28 October at $49.95 (roughly 40 quid). That's a four-fighter set at a price that undercuts many comparable licensed games. For Hellboy fans who've never tried Unmatched, this is a natural starting point. For Unmatched collectors, the wait is nearly over.
