Gotta collect 'em all: Pokemon Trading Card Game Online for iPad is now officially out
After a brief soft-launch period in Canada, the long-awaited iPad edition of Pokemon Trading Card Online, or simply Pokemon TCG Online, is now officially available on the App Store worldwide.
Unveiled by The Pokemon Company at the Pokemon World Championship last month, Pokemon TCG Online is the free-to-play iPad version of the Mac and PC game of the same name. As its name suggests, it’s a collectible card game based on the hugely popular Pokemon video game series.
Pokemon TCG Online has the following key features:
- EASY TO START: Choose from Grass, Fire, or Water decks, step right into a game, and learn as you go in an easy play experience.
- EXPAND YOUR COLLECTION: Earn cards, open booster packs, trade with other players, and build the perfect deck around your favorite cards. Your collection grows with you!
- CUSTOMIZE YOUR EXPERIENCE: Build your own decks, customize the look of your cards, deck boxes, and avatar, and join your friends online.
- HONE YOUR SKILLS: Play against the computer until you are ready to challenge other players.
- CHALLENGE THE WORLD: When you feel your deck design is ready, challenge other players or join a tournament to show your skill and knowledge.
Pokemon TCG Online is available now to download from the App Store for free.
The game is optimized for third-generation iPad, fourth-generation iPad, iPad Air, and iPad mini with Retina display running iOS 7.0 or later. Of course, Pokemon TCG Online requires an Internet connection to play.
Pokemon TCG Online is one of only two official Pokemon titles currently offered by The Pokemon Company on the App Store, the other being the Pokemon cartoon streaming app Pokemon TV.
