You can’t go wrong with the Pokemon Trading Card Game
If you’re trying to figure out holiday gift options for someone who loves trading card games, Pokemon Trading Card Game never goes out of style. Especially since there have been some interesting expansions lately. Scarlet & Violet 151 expansion that focuses on the original Kanto Pokemon could be a fantastic pick too.
Magic the Gathering is typically a good time
Getting into the game could open up your horizons. Especially as there have been a lot of crossovers that can welcome you into the TCG. For example, the Magic: The Gathering The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth Final Fantasy set.
Are there other video game-related trading card games I should consider for gifts or wishlists?
Absolutely! For starters, consider Yu-Gi-Oh! The Structure Deck: Fire Kings is coming out on December 7, 2023, if you want to get something you’re sure someone doesn’t already own yet. The Valiant Smashers also only just debuted in November 2023, so that’s another good option for building up decks.
There’s also the Final Fantasy Trading Card Game. If someone is a newcomer, Square Enix sells two-player starter sets with two decks to help you immediately jump in and begin playing. Those tend to cost around $25, and you can get versions like on February 16, 2024, so you could pre-order the $59.99 pack for them.
