Mythic Battles: Ragnarök is a board game released in 2024 for 2–4 players, 60–90 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Benoit Vogt and its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Hand Management, and Player Elimination.
Take control of Norse divinities and command their forces in the ultimate conflict! While gods and mortals wage war on mighty giants and living dead, strange runes of fire materialize in the Nine Worlds. For centuries, these remnants of primal forces remained out of reach, but now those who dare to wield this awesome power may tip the balance of these world-breaking battles in their favor. The realms are crumbling, the end draws near, and only the mighty shall be remembered. The Bifrost Bridge has collapsed, trapping Odin and his armies in Asgard. The resulting war in Midgard will be a devastating clash with no assumed victor. Will Ases and Vanes save the Nine Worlds from destruction, or will chaos shatter these realms and reduce Yggdrasil to ashes? Mythic Battles: Ragnarök is a 2 to 4 player legendary adventure, playable as a pure skirmish game, or as an epic saga comprised of numerous scenarios and campaigns. Glorious miniatures and stunning game boards set the scene, decks and dice decide the combat, and the draft mechanic ensures you field a mighty force, destined for glory and victory!

The catalogue lists Mythic Battles: Ragnarök for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
