Blue Dragon gets its trading card game too
When a series in Japan gets popular, whether video game or anime or manga, it’s bound to get a huge variety of merchandise. Blue Dragon, developed by the same dream team that created the very popular Chrono Trigger, also got its following of different items that fans would be churning out money for.
Capsule toys (gashapon), accessories, soundtrack CDs – you name it. Mystwalker also included a trading card game to their wide inventory of stuff with Blue Dragon on it. Half of Xbox 360 owners in Japan have the game in their libraries, so it’s no surprise that this would sell pretty well. Since Viz Media licensed television, home video, and non-video game merchandising rights of the title, expect these to reach the US.
There’s still quite some time to wait for its August and September release in US and Europe territories respectively, so you might want to check this TCG out (if you can find a way to import, of course).
