In a “State of the Game” posting on the Fantasy Flight Games message board, FFG VP Steve Horvath sounded the death knell for the UFS (Universal Fighting System) Collectible Card Game, stating unequivocally: “the time has finally come to stop.  This means that we will not be printing anymore UFS and that the OP kits we are shipping out his month are going to be the last.  All OP will end with these kits... Not only have we cancelled UFS, but we also announced that the Kingdom Hearts CCG is cancelled as well.  FFG is now out of the CCG business as the category has declined beyond the point where we can make it work for us.”

Fantasy Flight Games will instead focus its efforts on “the LCG category,” which, according to Horvath, “has beaten our most optimistic expectations.”  In his lengthy post, Horvath, who was the former CEO of Sabertooth Games, the company that developed the UFS CCG, and is now FFG’s Vice President of Marketing and Communication, chronicled the last two years of releases for the UFS CCG, noting FFG's numerous efforts to breathe life into the game.  He detailed how tough economic times have adversely affected a game that, in spite of everything, managed a four-year run through a highly competitive and declining marketplace where now “only Magic and a small handful of CCGs are still viable.”  Horvath also explained that since it involved multiple licenses, the UFS CCG was not a good candidate for conversion to an LCG.
