Decipher has announced that it will release .hack//Enemy TCG Gift, featuring alternate images on six new premium cards, on July 21st.
Gift features a different, very stylized, look for the property, as portrayed in a DVD short given away in Japan and included in the videogame .hack//Quarantine--Vol. 4 in the States. Decipher TCG designer Chuck Kallenbach said the Gift versions, '...almost look like characters from South Park.'
The premium cards will be Gift versions of the 'xtra-rares' from Contagion, the game's first release. In addition to the cards of BT, Crim, Sora, Subaru, Mimiru and Bear, this package will contain two eleven-card booster packs of .hack//Enemy TCG Contagion and two booster packs of .hack//Enemy TCG Distortion.
All this will be packaged in a plastic art-covered card box designed to hold a standard sized deck, produced by Max Protection.
The suggested retail price will be $19.95 for this limited print run product, which includes a numbered certificate of authenticity. Only 8,000 will be manufactured.
