Description

Get ready to take your Nemesis: Retaliation experience to the next level with the Xyrians Expansion, designed by Adam Kwapiński and released in 2025. This new expansion introduces a mysterious and technologically advanced race that operates independently, creating dynamic scenarios that can shift the tide of your mission. The Xyrians are a game-changer, bringing unpredictability and strategic depth to the game. They can be your ally or your worst enemy, and their goals will create exciting situations that will keep you on your toes. With their advanced blending technology, they can hide in plain view, making it difficult to determine whether their tokens represent an old trace or an actual Xyrian threat. As you navigate the unknown facility with 1 to 5 players, the Xyrians will introduce new challenges and narrative depth to your missions, which can last anywhere from 90 to 180 minutes. They can deal unique attacks, such as catching you in a net or poisoning you with an unknown substance, making each encounter feel fresh and challenging. Successfully defeating a Xyrian is a rare and challenging feat, but those who manage it will be rewarded with exceptionally rare artifacts. The Xyrians also introduce strategic manipulation to the game, as their goals can conflict with other alien races, creating opportunities for you to use to your advantage. With simple game rules that can be explained quickly, you'll be able to dive right into the action and experience the thrill of exploring the unknown facility with the Xyrians.
