Blastcast

An arena shooter where every gun is a spell. Recharging shields, tomes to fight over, and far too much glowing magic.

How it plays

Fast, loud, ridiculous magic

The maps don't sit still. Timed events keep opening new things to fight over, so the battle keeps moving to wherever the map sends it.

Two wizards trading lightning in Sanctum

Spells instead of guns

Chain lightning between two players, snipe someone mid-jump with a lance of ice, or drop a black hole into a crowded room. Every kill looks like a cartoon.

First-person view holding a fire staff

Break almost everything

Crates burst into planks, crystals shatter, and arches, pillars, stairs and bridges crumble under fire. Drop the bridge your enemy is crossing, or blast open a new way in. When the dragon walks through a room, it flattens it.

Wizard, Reaper and Dragon characters

Events you fight over

Charge Sanctum's conduits and the vault opens on the Reaper's relic. On Rival Academies the dragon pad wakes up a minute in. Whoever gets there first becomes a monster with three times the health, and everyone else has to team up to bring them down.

Every element hits differently. Learn the spells, then fight over the tomes.
