About this expansion

Fate of the Elder Gods: Beasts From Beyond is a Lovecraftian expansion for 2–4 players, with games lasting about 120 minutes. It brings a menagerie of sinister creatures and four new Elder Gods into the world of cults, forbidden magic, and terrifying possibilities.

With this expansion, your cult can use new spells to summon classic creatures from Lovecraftian lore and make them do your bidding. The monsters emerge from places filled with twisted growth, darkened angles, and the unsettling atmosphere of Arkham and its withered homes.

The creatures available to summon include:

  • Mi-Go and Dark Young
  • Deep Ones and Byakhees
  • Goat Spawn and Hunting Horror
  • A Hound of Tindalos
  • The terrifying, unpredictable Shoggoth

Beasts From Beyond also introduces four new Elder Gods: Shub-Niggurath, Ghatanothoa, Dagon, and Yig. Together, these additions give cults new horrors to bring forth as they explore the expansion’s darker challenges.

The publisher recommends playing a few first games of the base game before adding Cult Cards or Beasts From Beyond. Once players know the ropes, this expansion offers more to discover and new challenges to tackle.

Released in 2017, Fate of the Elder Gods: Beasts From Beyond is designed for groups ready to push their cult into more dangerous and unpredictable territory. Summon familiar nightmares, call upon new Elder Gods, and see what waits beyond the edges of sanity.
