Scythe: Duel of Meloch is a standalone two-player game released by Stonemaier Games in July 2026, in which one player commands a Scythe faction and the other leads an Expeditions crew. It plays in about 45 minutes on a compact double-sided map of ten locations and two lakes, with both sides racing to place four stars on a shared Triumph Track. Every star you place lets your opponent draw a Meloch card and choose a reward, keeping finishes tight. It also introduces Constantinople — the first new Scythe faction in years — and the eighth player mat, Adventurous.
