Project ELITE Zombicide Invader Crossover Promo Pack Explained

What the Project ELITE crossover promo pack adds, who it's for, and whether you need both core games. A clear FAQ for Zombicide Invader and Project ELITE owners.
Quick answer
Buy it only if you own both Project ELITE and Zombicide: Invader and want to mix their heroes and aliens. The pack contains 60 cards and 6 HERO dashboards, and it requires the Project ELITE core game or the matching Zombicide Invader core set to use.
What the crossover actually changes at the table
The pack is a two-way bridge: it lets Project ELITE aliens and heroes appear in Zombicide: Invader, and lets Zombicide: Invader aliens and heroes appear in Project ELITE. That means new matchups and team compositions rather than a new campaign or a standalone game.
Because the content is cards and dashboards, it slots into games you already own. It does not add miniatures, tiles, or a rulebook of its own, so the variety comes from mixing existing components.
When it is not worth adding
If you only own one of the two games, the pack cannot be used as intended. The catalog notes require the Project ELITE core game or the matching Zombicide Invader core set, so a single-game owner would be paying for half a crossover.
It is also a poor first purchase for someone curious about either system. The pack assumes you already know how each game plays; it is an expansion for established collections, not an entry point.
Crossover promo pack FAQ
- Do I need both core games?
- No. You need at least one: the Project ELITE core game or the matching Zombicide Invader core set. The crossover works in either direction, so one core is enough to use the pack.
- What exactly is in the box?
- 60 cards and 6 HERO dashboards. There are no miniatures, tiles, or separate rules included; the dashboards let you field crossover heroes, and the cards handle the rest.
- How many players does it support?
- The pack supports 1 to 6 players, matching the six HERO dashboards. Solo play is possible if your core game supports it.
- Is this a pre-order?
- Yes. The listing is a Kickstarter pre-order special with an expected delivery date of 2026-09-30. Plan around that date rather than expecting immediate shipping. Confirm the delivery date fits your gaming schedule before you commit.
- Who should skip it?
- Skip it if you own neither core game, if you only play one system and do not plan to buy the other, or if you want new scenarios rather than crossover components.
