Bandai has shared some details about its upcoming One Piece Card Game, set to release later this year.
One Piece will be a trading card style game, with cards featuring artwork taken from the original manga series as well as all-new artwork created for the game by One Piece artists. The game will include cards depicting characters from the series as well as special “Don!!” sound effect cards that can modify the costs and powers of other cards in the game.
The first wave of releases will launch in Japan in July followed by the rest of the world later in the year. It will include four different starter packs, each featuring a different set of characters from the series: Straw Hat Crew, Worst Generation, The Seven Warlords of the Sea, and Animal Kingdom Pirates.
A booster pack set called Romance Dawn will also be available, packaged in 12-card booster packs.
Total card counts and MSRP have not been announced.
Bandai has also announced summer releases for its Dragon Ball Super Card Game and Digimon Card Game (see “Recreate Iconic ‘Dragon Ball Super’ Scenes in the Card Game” and “Bandai Reveals New ‘Digimon CG’ Booster Set“).
