TEPPEN Tells �The Tale of Amatsu no Kuni�

The Okami and Sengoku Basara series join TEPPEN in latest expansion

TOKYO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Kneel before the Goddess of the Sun! Today, TEPPEN launched its latest expansion �The Tale of Amatsu no Kuni,” introducing new cards, abilities, tribes, skins, and the game’s latest Hero – Amaterasu.

Watch the trailer here.

The Okami and Sengoku Basara series make their debut in TEPPEN with new cards featuring characters from both games, including Wood Sprite Sakuya, Sun Goddess Amaterasu, Divine Spear Yukimura, and Oshu Lord Date Masamune. Among these cards are two new Tribes: Kami and Spirit, as well as the new ability Crush. Crush bestows you with the power of the Goddess, allowing you to deal high damage when attacking without taking damage from counters.

Also new to TEPPEN is the “white wolf,” the Red Hero Amaterasu, who has been gifted three powerful Hero Arts straight from the Celestial Plains:

• Great Divine Intervention grants +2 HP to all friendly units and 3 damage to all enemy units. Using her powers as a protector deity, any enemy units that are destroyed will not trigger Death abilities, and will be removed from the game
• Thunder Edge gives <Agility> and +1 Attack to a friendly unit
• Celestial Envoy’s Miracle gives +1 Attack to all friendly Red units to aid you in your fight to free the lands from evil’s hold

This “tale” begins when Gods and humans existed peacefully in Amatsu no Kuni – but no peace lasts forever. In one burst of fury and darkness, the evil eight-headed serpent god Orochi returns, along with the evil king Nobunaga Oda. Faced with the quickly-spreading darkness, a lone wood sprite looks to the heavens and prays—prays for salvation from this impending evil—and the heavens answer. The legendary sun Goddess Amaterasu appears, summoning heroes from across the realm to aid her in the battle to purge the darkness. In one final stroke of divinity, a celestial warrior strikes Orochi down with his empyrean blade, shattering the night which had fallen upon the realm. Although the battle was won, the war is still to come—where will this mystical sword guide them next? Follow Ameraterasu and her allies through “The Tale of Amatsu no Kuni.”
