Devsisters said on the 4th that its trading card game (TCG) "Cookie Run: Braverse Card Game" will enter the European market in January next year.
According to Devsisters, the Cookie Run card game will enter the European market with the release of its 13th booster pack in late January next year. At the same time, it will officially launch the sanctioned play program "Brave League" at local card shops.
Since entering North America in July last year, the Cookie Run card game has expanded its local distribution network, including joining TCGplayer, the world's largest single-card transaction platform.
European distribution will be handled by three TCG-focused distributors: Blackfire, Cube Golem, and Bliss Distribution. Among them, Blackfire is part of the Asmodee Group, a global board game publisher and distributor, and supports distribution of major TCGs and operation of sanctioned events.
According to global market research firm Straight Research, Europe's collectible card game market last year is estimated at about $4.28 billion (about 5.8 trillion won). That is about 40% the size of the U.S. market. There are currently about 5,000 TCG specialty stores operating across Europe.
The Cookie Run card game will participate in the "Essen Spiel" in Germany in late October to introduce the game in earnest. It plans to run various on-site programs while building a partner network for future sanctioned play operations in Europe.
It will also expand its U.S. distribution network. Devsisters will newly partner with local TCG distributors Peachstate Hobby Distribution (PHD) and Universal Distribution US. Including existing ACD Distribution, it plans to increase the number of U.S. distribution partners to three and expand sales channels.
