The third expansion for Riftbound has been announced, and the newest card list is already packed with exciting new cards for players to collect. This includes a Bonus Action exclusive reveal for a powerful Unit card.
Riftbound: Unleashed has entered its preview season, which, according to the newest breakdown from the Riftbound official website, will run from March 16, 2026, through March 26, 2026. During this time, cards will be teased, and new information about the upcoming set will be released to players.
The Riftbound: Unleashed English edition is set to release on May 8, 2026, roughly a month after the Chinese April 10, 2026, release date. Unleashed will focus on the Champion cards Master Yi, Diana, Vi, and Pyke, as well as a variety of options designed to build up powerful strategies during a match.
To make the most powerful decks, players will need strong units like Atakhan, the exclusive reveal that we at the Bonus Action team have the opportunity to unveil.
Atakhan Card Debut for Riftbound: Unleashed
Atakhan is a powerful Order Rune card that won’t be cheap to get out. However, those who choose to run it in an Order deck will have some powerful options for their strategies.
Atakhan offers players an acceleration option at a cost. Killing a friendly unit in play costs one less Energy and one less Order Power to play. This allows players to get Atakhan out onto the field earlier in the game.
This is a dangerous gamble, as wiping out too many units early on can create major strategy issues for those with complex decks. That said, the ability to take an opponent by surprise before they have the chance to get their best cards out could clinch a win early in a match.
Cards like Atakhan show that gameplay in Riftbound is starting to heat up. The introduction of gear in Spiritforged has set decks up with numerous new builds, and the power that Unleashed appears to be packing will turn certain builds into powerhouse monsters.
With preview season just heating up, there are sure to be plenty more amazing reveals in the weeks to come for Riftbound: Unleashed.
