The ‘Ender’s Game’ board game by Cryptozoic Media finally has a release date. The board game will be released on November 15, 2013 – just in time for Christmas sales. This is a UK release date, but we’re working with Summit Entertainment to confirm whether this release date holds true for the United States. You can pre-order the ‘Ender’s Game’ board game here.
Ender’s Game: Battle School is a two-player game set in the zero-gravity arena of the International Fleet’s Battle School. Players take the role of either Ender Wiggin and the Dragon Team or Bonzo Madrid and the Salamander Team, and then use Commander cards with special abilities (some for the whole team, some that only help the commander) to attempt to capture the other team’s gates or freeze opposing team players with laser-light guns. The player who completes either of the goals first (capturing all the gates or freezing the opposing commander) wins.
The suggested retail price is $25.00 and has a suggested user age of 13 and older.
The ‘Ender’s Game’ film will be released in U.S. theaters on November 1, 2013.
