FOUNDER’S WAR SAGA & FINAL EIDOL CHASE BEGINS

The final Eidol chase is upon us! Kabam has introduced a series of brand-new original characters called Eidols throughout the year to MCoC, each central to the game’s new “Founders” storyline that dives into the powerful characters behind the history of The Battlerealm. Artificial lifeform ISOPHYNE arrived first, followed by the assassin LUMATRIX, and the Wolf of the Stars SOLVARCH. Soon IMPERIOSA–the pinnacle of Eidol creation, but also the combined genius of every Founder who ever lived—shall arrive and the fate of the Founders, Eidols, and Battlerealm itself shall be revealed. The chase for Imperiosa kicked off September 17 and ends December 7. Throughout the Founders’ War Saga, players can collect “Invade Essence” in order to acquire Imperiosa.

★      Saga - Founders’ War [Oct. 8 - Jan. 7, 2026]: An eternal midnight has fallen as the first sign of the approaching dangers. Soon Imperiosa shall arrive and the fate of the Founders, Eidols, and Battlerealm itself shall be revealed. Check out the all-new Motion Comic trailer featuring Imperiosa here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xpbn9dNZww.

THE BATTLEREALM JUST GOT SCARIER

Sorcerer, warrior, and stalker of the night.. Count Vlad Tepes DRACULA is entering The Contest, along with the undead and unstoppable FRANKEN-CASTLE! Players will have the opportunity to obtain Dracula on October 16, and Franken-Castle on October 30. Are you ready to embrace the darkness and battle against some of the baddest in The Battlerealm?

Dracula (Mystic)

Cut down in a battle that should have meant his end, Vlad Tepes Dracula was infected with vampirism and rose again with darker powers. Growing in power over the centuries, Dracula now rules as the Voivode of the Vampire Nation. Though he plays the role of a refined leader, his thirst for blood and violence will never truly be sated.

Franken-Castle (Skill)

The Punisher met a grisly end and was finally allowed to rest in peace. Unfortunately his rest is cut short as he roars to life on Doctor Michael Morbius' operating table. Frank was re-assembled to help The Legion of Monsters protect Monster Metropolis and its denizens from would-be monster hunters. Franken-Castle now continues his crusade for vengeance deep into his undeath.
