Love Tekken? Love card games? Well, now you can play both with Tekken Card Tournament. What makes this game special is that it is a cross-platform game meaning those on iOS can play those on Android as well as PC through a web browser.

Now I’ve never really been into card battling games, nor do I really know how to play them, but I think I’ll be giving this a try. Tekken has always been a pretty decent fighting game so I’m kind of curious to see how it translates as a card battler. You can pick up the game now on iOS and Android. See the press release below for links.
