Players will be able to create their very own avatar and battle players around the world. By adding cards to your collection, you can refine your strategy and prepare to face anything. Cards can be added by completing quests, scanning code cards or purchasing booster packs in-game. When the game launches, it will support various languages like English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese, making it easy to find an opponent to battle, no matter where you are in the world.

There's no word on the game's release date, but we'll be sure to keep you updated. The game will be free-to-play and is set to release on Mac, iOS, Windows, and Android.
