Palworld TCG Bushiroad Release Date Set for July 2026: The Survival Sensation Goes Physical

The "Pokémon with guns" phenomenon is officially leaping from your PC to your tabletop. Pocketpair has announced a major partnership with Bushiroad—the powerhouse behind Weiss Schwarz—to launch an official Palworld Trading Card Game later this year.

Palworld TCG Bushiroad Partnership and Launch Details

According to reports from The Verge, the new card game is slated for release on July 30, 2026. By teaming up with Bushiroad, who also manages Shadowverse: Evolve, Pocketpair ensures that their breakout IP is in the hands of seasoned TCG veterans. The game promises "strategic and tactical" battles, moving beyond simple collectibles into a competitive ecosystem.

Gameplay Mechanics and Fan-Favorite Pals

While the official card art hasn't been unveiled yet, the game will focus on 2-player duels using customized decks. Players can expect to lead their favorite creatures into battle, with several iconic Pals already confirmed for the initial set.

• The fire-breathing powerhouse Blazamut
• The agile, manta-like Celaray
• The heavy-hitting mascot Grizzbolt

The timing is particularly bold, as it lands right during The Pokémon Company's massive 30th anniversary celebrations. While pricing remains TBA, the collaboration suggests a global rollout aimed at capturing the tabletop market currently dominated by established titans.
