The independent project Backpack Battles was released on Steam in the summer of 2025 and offered an unusual combination of inventory manager, card "roguelike" and PvP autobattler. The game quickly became a viral hit, collected over 17 thousand reviews, of which 91% are positive, and showed a peak online of 36,567 players.
Players have long asked the authors to release a mobile version. Prior to this, fans launched Backpack Battles through a mobile browser on Itch.io. Now the project page has appeared in the App Store: the premium version for iPhone and iPad will be released on February 4 and will cost 899 rubles. Judging by the description, the content will not differ from the PC version, but will only be adapted for touch controls, which the browser version had problems with.
There is no information about the release on Android yet — the game page is missing in Google Play, and the developers have not given official comments. There are no technical obstacles to the release on Android, so it is possible that an official appeal will appear soon, and users should just wait.
