Bushiroad opened a teaser website for a Future Card Buddyfight Nintendo 3DS game titled Future Card Buddyfight: Yūjō no Bakunetsu Fight! (Future Card Buddyfight: The Exploding Hot Fight of Friendship).
The "card game simulator" game will be released in Japan sometime this spring, and will a one-player game with 2-player compatibility through the game's wireless function.
The Nintendo 3DS game is part of a franchise inspired by Bushiroad's trading card game of the same name. Crunchyroll is streaming the English-dubbed version of the currently-running television anime's episodes via its media service. Bushiroad is also streaming the English dub on YouTube and Hulu. The series is continuing for a second year.
The Future Card Buddyfight takes place around the year 2030, in Japan's new capital city of Chō Tokyo. Humans intermingle with beings from the parallel worlds of "Affinity Dimensions." The "Buddyfight" game chooses humans ("Buddyfighters") and partners them with Buddy Monsters from Shinkinkai, and the duo fight against other Buddyfighters. The battles in these games can sometimes even influence the fate of nations.
Gaō Mikado is a sixth-year student at the "Aibo Academy" elementary division who longs to be a Buddyfighter and to be partnered with a Monster. One day Gaō notices a young boy being bullied by delinquents, and he helps him out using his AIKI-jujutsu skills. Drum Bunker Dragon, a Monster and the son of the hero of Dragon World, watches Gaō's actions, and decides to form a pact with him as his buddy.
