Kabuto Sumo: Swarm

About this expansion

Kabuto Sumo: Swarm is a 2–4-player board game with approximately 35 minutes of play time, released in 2024. In this insect-wrestling showdown, you draft three Kabuto Sumo wrestlers and lead them through a multi-match swarm competition.

The Sumo-beya are crumbling, and new factions have risen within World Insect Wrestling. Powerful insects and arachnids are joining the league, bringing new teams and tournament formats to the beginning of the Era of Swarms.

Each match requires a different wrestler to enter the ring. Although only one wrestler competes at a time, your selected team can work together through the unique swarm moves provided by their ringside partners. Choosing the right combination of wrestlers and moves is central to your strategy.

• Draft 3 Kabuto Sumo wrestlers.
• Use a different wrestler in each match.
• Combine unique swarm moves from ringside partners.
• Set up powerful combos to overwhelm your opponents.

Kabuto Sumo: Swarm focuses on team selection and tactical combinations across a sequence of matches. Your wrestlers are not simply individual competitors: their ringside support can help create powerful effects and shape how your swarm performs.

Build your faction, plan your matchups, and look for opportunities to connect your wrestlers’ abilities. With powerful insects and arachnids entering the league, every showdown becomes part of a larger struggle for dominance in World Insect Wrestling.
