About this expansion

Here to Slay: Banner Quest is an expansion for 2–6 players with an approximately 60-minute play time, released in 2025. It adds new effects, new mechanics, and a fresh way to win to the Here to Slay experience.

Throughout the game, players strategically build their Parties to claim valuable Banner cards. The first player to end their turn with at least 3 Banners in their Party wins. Alternatively, a player can win by Slaying 3 Monsters.

Each Banner provides an effect that can be used on every one of your turns while that Banner remains in your Party. Banners cannot be stolen, destroyed, attacked, or returned to your hand, but another player can still seize one under the right circumstances, keeping control of these advantages in contention.

  • Class Banners: Claim one by being the first player to reach 3 Heroes of its corresponding class in your Party, including your Party Leader.
  • Hunter’s Trophy Banner: Claim this Banner by being the first to Slay a Monster. Whenever any player Slays a Monster afterward, they seize it.
  • Class-changing effects: Certain cards can change a Hero’s class, helping you pursue Class Banners or improve your chances of Slaying Monsters.

The expansion includes 10 Class Banner cards, one for each of the 10 classes found across the Here to Slay base game and expansion Packs, plus the Hunter’s Trophy Banner. Double-sided class tokens make it easy to track a Hero’s current class during play.

With Banner ownership offering ongoing benefits and opponents able to seize the Hunter’s Trophy, Here to Slay: Banner Quest creates a tense race between Party building, Monster hunting, and tactical class changes.
