Trading Card Game Based on New Action-Adventure Property; Launch Events Set at Hobby Stores throughout North America!
North Las Vegas, NV February 18, 2009) – It’s finally here! Upper Deck is pleased to announce that the Huntik Trading Card Game (TCG) has launched nationwide! This brand new game is closely tied with the popular Huntik: Secrets & Seekers animated series, currently airing Saturday mornings on The CW4Kids Network. Visit Huntik.com for more information on this exciting action-adventure brand!
Magic, mystery, mythology and adventure come together in Huntik, and the Huntik Trading Card Game brings all the excitement of the TV series right to your table top. In the animated series, young Lok Lambert and Dante Vale travel the globe with their group of amazing Seekers, exploring exotic locations and seeking to unlock ancient secrets. Lok and his friends search for powerful spirit-warriors, called Titans, to use in battle against the evil Organization. The Huntik TCG lets players direct their own Seekers to complete missions by using amazing powers and controlling mighty Titans. Plus, one in every three Huntik TCG card packs includes a password that unlocks Titans and other great content on the Huntik website. Visit Huntik.com for more information.
