Digimon Card Game Unleashes Liberator Hype With New Trailers Despite Release Delays

Digimon Liberator cards bring epic visuals in release trailers. Bandai Card Games provides hype to the new decks and booster as delays affect players.

Bandai Card Games have unleashed trailers for the Digimon Card Game’s latest releases for Digimon Liberator. These include trailers for the ST18 and ST19 structure decks featuring Pteromon and Shoemon, along with the new EX07 booster. These are the first releases that add the cards seen in the Web Comic and Web Novel to the Card Game. Although these trailers hype up the products, fans may have to wait as delays are still in effect that change the release date for various regions. 

Liberator started as the new Digimon Card Game project that followed after the conclusion of the Web Novel, Digimon Seekers. The Web Comic premiered with Chapter 0 and Chapter 1 Part 1 in April 2024, with the Web Novel premiering in May with the first 4 installments. The story follows TCG players as they enter a VR world that allows them to experience real battles with the Card Game. The series also introduces new Digimon such as Ptermon, Shoemon, and Elizamon, along with brand new evolutions for renowned Digimon from past releases.

We are extremely excited to obtain our booster box and both Liberator starter decks when they are finally available. However, we have also been affected by the delay, which means waiting until the 20th for the US and the 27th for the UK. These are going to be exciting packs to open Digimon Liberator is such an amazing series, but all these cards could seriously create powerful new decks. It will be interesting to see how they shape the tournament scenes once they are released for everyone. 

Fans can find a rewarding challenge by trying out these new cards. Once a box is obtained, a battle for the Legend Pack 2024 will commence to obtain that rare card. It will be exciting to see what cards will come out on top as we will be only using new cards featured from these decks and the booster. Till then, fans have a bit of hype to get them through the last few days until they can finally obtain the Liberator power themselves. 

Liberator releases for the US will be released on September 20, 2024, with UK release now scheduled for September 27, 2024. The releases will include Pteromon’s ST18, Guardian Vortex, Shoemon’s ST19, Fable Waltz, and EX07, the Extra Booster Digimon Liberator.

Long time fan of Tokusatsu fan since Power Rangers was first released in the 90s. Whereas most Superhero fans grew up with DC Comics and Marvel, my childhood was surrounded by releases from Saban Entertainment such as Beetleborgs, along with anime, and other various fads of the generation. Anime is also a great passion with Digimon, That Time I Was Reincarnated As A Slime, and Demon Slayer being significant favorites. It was the love of both Power Rangers and Digimon that led to the path of becoming a Senior Writer for The Illuminerdi.
