Mattel is planning to releases its DC Battleague Game in July. DC Battleague is a fighting figure game in which players attempt to knock their opponent's figures down. The game can be played in a very basic way by simply using the various features of the figures like Batman's 'batweapon' or Robin's catapult to knock down the opposition, but it can also be played more strategically using scenarios and power chips. Power chips get inserted into each base and contain special powers. This way a player will be able to try to make combos of figures and chips to get extra power out of their force. Battleague, which is targeted at boys ages 7 and up, offers several different games in one, including mission play, last man standing, and first-to-score 10 battle blows.
Battleague Boosters (MSRP $5.99) expand the play of the Battleague game by adding new heroes and villains to the mix. Each blind-box-packaged booster includes two surprise figures, a mission card, four power chips and two tokens. Like the other packages, the booster box can be configured into a building to use in the game.
The Battleague Deluxe Set (MSRP $10.99) contains a detailed miniature Batmobile vehicle with disc-launching action. The Deluxe Set includes a mission card, four power chips and two tokens. The package also converts into a gaming zone and holds other game pieces for use during play.
