Ultra PRO Entertainment is releasing two new card games on Halloween: Overkill: Halloween Slasher Party Game and Dia de Los Muertos.

The Overkill:  Halloween Slasher Party Game challenges players to create the most ridiculous way to kill horror movie victims, assuming the role of classic movie monsters such as werewolves, vampires, or Frankenstein’s Monster.  The player who racks up the most valuable victims by sunrise wins.

Overkill:  Halloween Slasher Party Game includes 129 cards packaged in an Ultra PRO deck box with divider art card.  The game will be sold in 6-piece POP display boxes.  MSRP is $15.00 per game.

Dia De Los Muertos is a trick-taking card game for three to six players featuring cards with unique special effects.  The card artwork features the iconic symbolism of the Mexican Day of the Dead holiday, and all game information is communicated in a non-linguistic way so the game can be played without knowledge of any specific language.  Each game includes both English and Spanish language rules.

Two versions of Dia De Los Muertos will be available.  The basic version includes 63 cards packaged in a tuck box, packaged in POP display boxes with 6 copies.  MSRP is $10.00.  A Deluxe Box Edition is packaged in a standard game box and includes a coloring book, and stickers with artwork from the cards, along with the game components.  MSRP is $20.00.

Ultra Pro has been expanding its game offerings over the last year, acquiring four game development studios (see “Ultra Pro Acquiring Playroom Entertainment”).
