May 2026- Arkham Horror The Card Game Chapter Two

10 years ago, Arkham Horror the Card Game released. The second cooperative Living Card Game by Fantasy Flight Game, their first being the Lord of the Rings Card Game, Arkham Horror quickly became a hit. Now after 10 years, they have taken the step to do a "reset" with Chapter Two.

At its core, Chapter Two is both a continuation and a new entry point. Set after the events of the Drowned City Campaign, that released in 2025, it introduces a new campaign (Brethren of Ash), five investigators, and a largely refreshed card pool. It remains fully compatible with all previous content, meaning veteran players don’t lose their investments, but is the perfect point for new players to join the community.

Onboarding for new players is more approachable with the new core set. Cards have been rebalanced at level 0, and the campaign's structure has been adjusted to feel more in line with larger campaign releases. They have also taken the opportunity to release premium accessories, including a premium token bag, location connection arrows, playmats, and a premium game chest!
