The game was previously released in other countries before making its debut in the United States. The game features exclusive artwork from all 3 anime series (Dragon Ball, Z, and GT) never before seen in the US. In the 2017 relaunch of the card game, Bandai plans to introduce characters from Dragon Ball Xenoverse. The game has similarities to the other CCG created by Bandai, the Naruto Collectible Card Game.

Card Types and Rarity (2008 Version)

The original release of the game includes four different types of cards: warrior, technique, event, and wish. Warrior cards are the characters who fight in the game, such as Goku, Gohan, Piccolo, Vegeta, Frieza, and Cell. The technique cards are various attacks that can be used against the opponent in battle, such as the Kamehameha and the Genki Dama (also referred to as the Spirit Bomb). Various events in the series are also used in the game to change the dynamics of a battle. The wish cards are cards based on wishes made in the series that can be used when the seven Dragon Balls are collected.[2]

There were different types of cards by rarity: common, uncommon, rare, super rare, and starter-exclusive super rares. There are also gold cards and holographic cards in booster packs.
