"TEPPEN" is the ultimate card battle created through a powerful tag-team collaboration between GungHo and Capcom-a collaboration that has culminated in a game featuring a comprehensive set of techniques and multiple popular Capcom characters. This battle game features an original story that unfolds with brand new, impressive illustrations for each of the TEPPEN heroes, and is a fusion of real-time gameplay that makes you feel as if you're right in the action and turn-based strategy that plays out in a quick-paced battle of the minds. These features along with TEPPEN's intuitive, easy-to-control battles result in a totally new experience for players.

TEPPEN will be on display at events such as the PAX West gaming convention taking place in the U.S. as well as the Tokyo Game Show 2019, and in addition to running various e-Sports events, a World Championship to decide the world's No.1 player will also be held. This game was launched in North America and Europe on July 4, 2019, and it has exceeded 1 million downloads on a cumulative basis on August 3*3, 2019, and starting today, a commercial entitled "The Beginning of the Ultimate Battle" will also be broadcast on Japanese television in order to further expand the game's user base.

With the launch in Asia and Japan, we will have begun providing services globally, including in North America and Europe. In addition, we are aiming to actively hold e-Sports events on a global scale for TEPPEN, and we will provide services that can be enjoyed by as many users as possible.
