Bushiroad will release Absolute Judgment, the eighth booster set for the Cardfight!! Vanguard G trading card game, on October 7.

The focus of Absolute Judgment is the on-going Cardfight!! Vanguard G Stride Gate storyline from the animated series.  It features new trump cards used on the show by the main characters and their enemies, as well as the return of Genesis Dragon, Amnesty Messiah, with new artwork.

This expansion will be packaged in five-card booster packs, sold in 30-pack displays.  The total set will include 104 cards with these rarities:  2 GR, 8 RRR, 12 RR, 22 R, and 60 C.  There will also be 2 SGR parallel and 12 SP parallel cards, packed randomly in some boosters. 30 of the cards in the set will be reissued cards from the Glorious Bravery of Radiant Sword SP Clan Packs.  Each booster will have one R rarity or above rarity card.

Retailers that want to hold pre-release events during the weekend of September 30 – October 2 can order Absolute Judgment Sneak Preview Kits.  Each kit includes 48 booster packs (enough for eight players), 9 promo cards, and 2 premium rubber playmats.

Absolute Judgment will follow the Genius Strategy booster set, releasing in August (see “New ‘Genius Strategy’ Booster for ‘Cardfight!!  Vanguard G’”).
