TCG Card Shop Simulator leaves early access on September 15, 2026, launching simultaneously on PC, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 5. The full release adds a playable Tetramon mode.
TCG Card Shop Simulator, a card shop management simulation from OPNeon Games, has been in early access on Steam since September 15, 2024. The game lets players run a store selling trading cards, and early access has built a large audience. As of June 2026, it had sold over 3.5 million copies and earned an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam, with 96% of roughly 47,000 reviews positive.
The full release, set for September 15, 2026, arrives exactly two years after early access began. The update makes the in-game trading card game Tetramon playable, letting players battle with cards they have purchased or opened. This turns the simulation into a two-layer experience where players both run the shop and engage with the product they sell.
The console versions launch the same day as the PC release, on Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 5. The game is currently in early access for PC (Steam and Microsoft Store) and Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, and is on Xbox and PC Game Pass. A sale in June 2026 offered the game at 40% off for 900 yen, which the developer called the last big sale before the price increase at full release. Pre-orders for the PS5 version include a 15% discount for PS Plus subscribers.
