According to Rolling Stone Magazing, Wizards of the Coast will be releasing a new Transformers trading card game, Next fall 2018. The card based game will offer special graphics on what are being called an "oversized" format. The game made for younger fans, uses two decks and was designed to be easy to play. It may also be offered as a digital format. Read on to see the images and more details from president Chris Cocks.
The game hasn’t been formally announced yet, but Cocks says it’s a title aimed both at young teens and the collector and toy audience. It will come out in September or October. “We think Transformers are cool and the game has interesting, unique mechanics,” he says. “All cards are two-sided, over-sized and feel bigger, weightier in your hand.” Cocks says the game has a relatively light learning curve, but a lot of depth. “It should take one or two times to understand how to play,” he says.
The game, which has a unique rule set, is built around two decks. One of the decks is a hero deck and the other is a powers and abilities deck used to “amp up heroes.” The strategy around play, he says, is to choose the right hero with the right abilities and powers. They’re also considering making a digital version of the game, once it launches, depending on how it is received. “Transformers will be brand new to Wizards.
