KONAMI DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT WARMS-UP WINTER WITH THREE NEW Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME PRODUCTS

El Segundo, Calif. (February 11, 2016) – Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. (KONAMI), the manufacturer of the multiple world record-holding Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME (TCG) has the antidote to the winter doldrums with three new Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG products to be released this month.  

KONAMI kicks-off February with the Wing Raiders special booster set hitting store shelves February 12. Wing Raiders contains brand-new Xyz cards and cards from the new Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V series, including several cards to help players power up a current Deck, or build a whole new Deck! With the Wing Raiders booster set, Duelists can power up their Xyz strategies, like Raidraptors, with new powerful cards like Raidraptor – Satellite Cannon Falcon, an Xyz Monster that devastates your opponent’s Spell & Trap cards and uses the power of fallen Raidraptors to sap the power of an opponent’s monsters!. Duelists can also try their hand at commanding two new monster themes that’ll take their Xyz strategies to the next level – the spectral Phantom Knights and the Super Quantum mecha pilots! The Wing Raiders booster set contains 60 cards; each 9-card pack is $3.99 MSRP.

Duelists who have amassed a collection of new cards during the past few months can now show off their stash in style with Yu-Gi-Oh! Chibi Card Sleeves also releasing February 12. These glossy, premium quality tournament-legal sleeves feature the iconic Yugi – in all his super-deformed glory!  Naturally, the Chibi Sleeves go great with the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist Kingdom Chibi Game Mats and the  Yu-Gi-Oh! Chibi Card Case, both released last year – collect all of them to complete an awesome Chibi set.  Each pack contains 50 card sleeves specifically designed for the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG for $3.99 per pack.

Rounding out the month, Breakers of Shadow Special Edition releases on February 26.  Breakers of Shadow Special Edition comes with three booster packs of Breakers of Shadow, one of two Super Rare preview cards from the upcoming Shining Victories booster set plus one of two Super Rare Cards – either Beast-Eyes Pendulum Dragon or Number 23: Lancelot, Dark Knight of the Underworld! Breakers of Shadow includes brand-new support cards for the legendary warrior Buster Blader plus exciting new Deck themes like the Shiranui, Twilight Ninjas, and Dinomists. In addition it includes several other popular themes like Melodious, Goyo, Majespecter, Odd-Eyes, Performapal, and Kozmo. With two guaranteed Super Rare cards in each Special Edition box plus the 27 cards from three booster packs, at $9.99 per box, Duelists can power up their Decks for less than it would cost to buy three individual booster packs!

Duelists can watch all-new Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL episodes every Tuesday as well as all of classic Yu-Gi-Oh!, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, and Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s on www.yugioh.com in the United States. In Canada, Duelists can watch episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V every Friday and Saturday on Teletoon! For more information on KONAMI or the Yu-Gi-Oh!
