Hasbro and Kayou are teaming up for a new My Little Pony project, but this time around, not only will it be a fully playable new trading card game, but it will also be taking the game outside of China to a global audience. Hasbro has announced that the My Little Pony Card Game is debuting in China first with two launch tournaments, and will then later be released in multiple languages alongside a global tournament system. You can get your first look at the new game below.
The new game will expand upon the previous trading cards from Hasbro and Kayou, and will feature original card illustrations from a bevy of Hasbro artists and talented illustrators from around the world. Thanks to Double_Dove (via equestriadaily), we also know some of the artists bringing those cards to life, which include Andy Price, Amy Mebberson, Tony Fleecs, Sara Richard, (Celesse) Samantha, and Brenda Hickey, and you can see their gorgeous cards below.As you can see in the new cards, a host of your favorite characters have made it into the game, including Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy.
The Mane 6 will make up the first six starter sets, which you can see in one of the images, and you can also see the official playmate for the game that shows the cards laid out for battle.There’s not much in the way of actual gameplay details, though the official description does say it will blend charming elements from the My Little Pony animated series into the mechanics to create an engaging, social, and uplifting experience. There is also a narrative element, and writers are already working on new adventures and a new story arc that will be exclusive to the card game.
