Media Blasters and Dex Entertainment have created an American version of Alteil, the number one online fantasy card game in
Media Blasters plans to launch the Alteil game in the spring of 2008 at which time online card packs will be available for purchase (the price of the virtual cards has not been set yet, but a Media Blasters spokesperson told ICv2 that the cards 'should be significantly less than $1 per card... and people could potentially get several cards for $1).
The Alteil cards, which are entirely 'virtual' rather than physical objects, nevertheless feature art from leading Japanese creators including designer Katsuya Terada (Hellboy, Tekken 5), illustrator Hitoshi Yoneda (Phantasy Star, Xanadu II), and monster maven Yuji Kaida (Godzilla) to name just a few.
