TCG Card Shop Simulator 1.0 Release Date
September 15, 2026. That's when the two-year Early Access run ends and TCG Card Shop Simulator becomes a full release on every platform at once.
1.0 launches Sep 15, 2026 — free update for current owners.
The update drops the same day the game debuts on PS5, Switch, Switch 2, Xbox Series, and Xbox One. PC players who bought in during Early Access just get the update on launch day.
What's in the 1.0 update
- Playable Tetramon TCG: the headline feature. The cards you've been collecting become a real deck — build it, and battle CPU opponents. This was the most-requested feature in the community for months.
- First PlayStation and Nintendo release: the game has never been on PS5, Switch, or Switch 2 until now.
