The Pokémon Trading Card Game is getting an official free-to-play mobile app, TCG Live, which will let you play the venerable card game for the first time on smartphones.
TCG Live will soft launch in Canada and then launch globally for PC and Mac later this year, with cross-platform play possible.
This version of the TCG will let you build decks to take part in daily challenges and online battles against other players. But you won’t be able to trade cards with other players.
The long-running Pokémon TCG has been available in a digital format before, such as via the Pokémon TCG Online app for iPad. Indeed, you can log into the new TCG Live app with the same Pokémon Trainer account and your TCG Online content will carry forward.
