Cyberpunk 2077 has been setting the video game landscape on fire since the release of its Phantom Liberty expansion several years ago. Based on the iconic tabletop RPG Cyberpunk, created by Mike Pondsmith, the game, and its anime expansion Cyberpunk Edgerunners, featured legendary characters gamers identified with, and many of us have longed for a way to return to Night City in 2077. That return will come on the form of the Cyberpunk TCG.
Once launched, this officially licensed TCG will release in booster packs similar to games like Magic: The Gathering and will feature cards with the art and likenesses of many of the iconic characters from the iconic video game. So how do you play this game? Here are the rules:
If you’re interested in learning more about the game you can check out their official website. If you’re interested in funding the game, you can back it on their Kickstarter page!

It’s no secret we’ve been absolutely obsessed with Dragon Quest since the release of Dragon Quest VII Reimagined’s demo a few months ago. The guys at Square Enix have announced the next game in the Dragon Quest franchise, Dragon Quest Smash/Grow, is coming to mobile, and you can pre-register for it right now on your mobile platform of choice!
I was an enormous fan of Dragon Quest Tact when it was operating here in North America, and was very disappointed when support for the game was ended. It is nice to see that a new DQ game is coming to mobile while we wait patiently for the inevitable release of Dragon Quest XII. At this time, you can find the game ready for pre-purchase on either the Google Play store or the Apple App Store. It is free to play.
Dragon Quest Smash/Grow is coming this Summer to Android and iOS mobile devices.
