Pokémon Trading Card Game Live limited beta now available for players in Australia and New Zealand

The Pokémon Company International has announced that the limited beta of Pokémon Trading Card Game Live is now available for players in Australia and New Zealand. These are the third and forth countries respectively to be given access to the limited beta. The beta initially opened to players from Canada on February 22nd, and was later opened to players in Mexico on May 24th.

Pokémon Trading Card Game Live (TCGL) is a free-to-play app that will serve as a replacement to the current Pokémon Trading Card Game Online (TCGO), allowing Trainers to enjoy the Pokémon Trading Card Game in an updated digital format. The current beta version of Pokémon TCG Live is available for both Android and iOS mobile devices, as well as PC, and Mac, and features cross-play across all supported platforms. System requirements for the app can be found here.

Players of the existing Pokémon TCGO app are able to migrate their account and game data to the new app, using their Pokémon Trainer Club accounts. Please note however that migrating account and game data is a permanent decision, and will result in Trainers losing access to Pokémon TCGO. Existing Pokémon TCGO players can however choose to play Pokémon TCG Live during the testing period without losing access to the Pokémon TCG Online app, simply by not migrating their accounts. Players who initially opt-out of migrating their accounts will be able to change their mind at any time, and perform a migration from the settings menu.
