MONTREAL--()--In anticipation of the nationwide release of Underworld: Blood Wars, in theaters January 6, 2017, Ludia launched today on iOS and Android, a fast-paced gaming experience based on the latest 2 installments of the popular Underworld film franchise. The war between Lycans and Vampires is raging and it’s time for you to gear up, build your deck and fight the fight to end it all.

Will you fight for the Lycans, Vampires, or both? Battle live as your Champions, and those loyal to them, cross multiple Battle Zones, attacking nearby opponents with brutal close and long range strikes.
