The release of Tekken Card tournament on mobile devices has been overwhelmingly successful with over 4 million downloads. So to mark such a monumental occasion, Namco Bandai Games have produced physical game cards that can be used with the smartphone game application.
Cards are available to buy from trusted retailers such as GAME and Amazon – starting this week. Card are sold in packs – with each pack containing 5 cards – and there is a grand total of 191 cards.
Each will add new bonus in-game features such as valuable power ups, collectible art, new cards via the card fusion system, augmented reality characters, plus extra chances to get super rare powers for Heihachi.
Olivier Comte, Senior VP of NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe had this to say.
“The support of the Tekken fans for Tekken Card Tournament has been incredible, and with the launch of the physical cards we’re giving them even more exciting possibilities to enjoy the game. These cards bring so many extra features, not least of all is the ability to take the mighty Heihachi and its rare powers into battle.”
It will certainly take some time to collect all 191 cards. As expected, QR codes are used to scan these cards so their features can be unlocked in the game application.
Those that have yet to try Tekken Card Tournament can do so from the App Store, Google Play store or Amazon store. It’s also possible to play it in a browser. It’s free to play, but it also contains the typical in-game purchases(completely optional) for those that want to make the most of the game.
