Check out the latest news of UNION ARENA English ver.

Greetings to all UNION ARENA fans!

Hello, I’m Akari Fujimoto, the producer of UNION ARENA English Ver.
Thank you for your continued support of UNION ARENA!

It's been half a year since the launch of UNION ARENA English Ver.
Thank you so much for all your support and enthusiasm!
We truly appreciate your feedback and passion for UNION ARENA — your voices have reached the team and continue to inspire us every day!

Now, the long-awaited details for the North America Championship have been announced!
We’ve prepared a roadmap showing how you can enjoy UNION ARENA in a more competitive environment—so we hope you’ll join us!
To bring even more excitement than 2024 and encourage competition using decks from a broad range of titles, the UNION ARENA Championship 2025 will begin this August.
Until then, sharpen your skills by playing with friends and rivals at shops and Large-Scale Events.
We’re preparing special Championship prizes featuring exclusive designs and items only available in North America—so watch out for that update!
Side events will also be held at each Regional venue, so we encourage you to try out different tournaments.
I’ll be attending some of the events myself, and I’m really looking forward to meeting all of you!

UNION ARENA still has plenty of excitement in store for the rest of the year! Of course, we’ll continue announcing new titles on a regular basis. In fact, we’re planning to reveal two new titles joining UNION ARENA sometime in May! We believe they are titles that many of you will be thrilled about.
As a reminder, from the very beginning of the English version's launch, we've been actively making adjustments to the game environment specifically for North America to ensure that players can enjoy UNION ARENA with peace of mind. For example, in titles like BLEACH, some cards were intentionally left out of the English version in order to maintain a healthy gameplay environment. These decisions are made so that all players can enjoy a fair and balanced experience.
In the future, as more products are released and the environment evolves, we’re considering ways to introduce these previously unreleased cards through special opportunities. We’ll continue working to make sure that fans of each series can enjoy UNION ARENA to the fullest.
Starting with the Black Clover Starter Deck releasing on May 30, we will begin including the “Promotion Rare Pack,” which has already been introduced in Japan. This special pack contains four rare cards from two colors that are different from the color of the Starter Deck. One of the four will be an alt-art design card. These cards can be used to expand your deck when combined with Booster Packs, and they also make great collectibles. Be sure to pick one up!

This year, UNION ARENA will also be featured at major events such as conventions and Bandai Card Game Fest (BCGF). We plan to distribute exclusive promotional cards available only at these venues, so if possible, we’d love for everyone to attend in person!
For those who are far away and may not be able to make it, we hope you’ll look forward to the event reports and photos showcasing the exhibits and activities. More details will be announced at a later date—look forward to it!

We will continue working to develop even better products in the future. Your feedback is incredibly helpful in shaping product development and future releases, so please make sure to fill out the product surveys!

We look forward to your continued support.
See you next time!
