Season 12
Season 12 is here!
A new season of RISK has begun and our Global Leaderboards have been reset.
You'll temporarily see '0' for your profile rank (this is your position on the Global Seasonal Leaderboard).
Complete one ranked Global Domination game to see your updated profile rank. You'll be placed back on the Global Leaderboard as soon as that game is finished by all players.

Be excited - and best of luck!
New Map Pack:
Get ready to rumble, a new RISK map will be entering the game!
Say hello to the Viking Conquest map pack! Art is designed by Ryan Lee: https://www.ryanleeart.com/
To celebrate the release, here’s a Viking pun which I may or may not have just Googled 👀.
Did you hear about the Viking who was reincarnated?
…..
He was Bjorn again. 😂
Ok I’ll stop.
Some Viking History for you: Björn Ironside was a Norse Viking chief and Swedish king. According to the 12th- and 13th-century Scandinavian histories, he was the son of notorious Viking king Ragnar Lodbrok and lived in the 9th century, between 855 and 858.
Although, I’m sure many of you know Bjorn from a certain tv show 😜.
Here's a sneak peek of one of the 4 maps:
You can expect to see this map pack in the game in August!
New Troops:
We also have new Viking themed troops coming as well! Earlier this month we gathered feedback from the community to see which Viking themed troops you’d like to see in RISK.
Here’s an early preview:
On behalf of the RISK team, I would just like to thank the community and its content creators for the support you have shown towards the game. You’re the reason the game is as big as it is!
