From Magic: The Gathering creator Richard Garfield and the team at Popularium comes an autobattler-royale called Chaos Agents. The game arose from Garfield’s desire to present an “unsolved metagame” to players. The team loved the accessibility of the autobattler genre, but wanted better multiplayer features that encouraged more engagement and prevented what felt like a long wait for an inevitable conclusion. The solution Popularium found was to inject that autobattler genre into the battle-royale space.
Inside Chaos Agents, Popularium’s upcoming ‘auto-battler royale’

The post-alpha version of Chaos Agents showcased at GDC demonstrated the core philosophy behind the upcoming game — Garfield’s belief that optimized play patterns make for less-fun gameplay. The game is an “auto-battler royale” in which players control a single champion, or “agent,” giving them directions and leveling up their skills and abilities as they face off against other players’ agents in a virtual environment. To ensure a variety of play patterns, Chaos Agents features three vastly different win conditions and plenty of unexpected skill combinations to keep the metagame wide open.

Accord Wars Trophy Trial #3 Recap
From the moment the first pods fired, it was clear that this was the culmination of months of rivalry, refinement, and coordination. The Accords were ready, and their Chairs and Council even more so. This author has watched a great many Trials unfold across the Firmament, but this one carried a different weight. Every Accord arrived organized. Every chair was present. Every decision felt intentional.

The Cunning Champions, it turns out, were simply busy last week and needed a moment, and they have returned from that moment with 2587 points and absolutely zero interest in discussing the previous Trial any further.

Richard Garfield Works His Magic
by Ryan Britt Oct. 11, 2024
Three decades later, can Garfield repeat this success? With Popularium, a new gaming studio founded by Garfield and three other industry veterans (Jon Bankard, Skaff Elias, and Arka Ray) he is about to find out as he launches the game Chaos Agents. Instead of being set in a fantasy world, this one exists in a space-opera-esque science fiction world, a kind of mish-mash of some of the more celestial Marvel comics but also at home with the texture of Larry Niven’s “Known Space” shared stories and novels.
