A revival collaboration event between Eiketsu Taisen: Kogen Soukoku no Hasshou (hereafter, Eiketsu Taisen), the competitive card action game currently running at amusement facilities, and the TV anime "The Elusive Samurai" began on October 21, 2026 (Wed).
Eiketsu Taisen is a competitive card action game played by manipulating physical cards. It features warriors from the Three Kingdoms and Sengoku eras, familiar from the long-running arcade series Sangokushi Taisen and Sengoku Taisen, alongside warriors from the Edo/Bakumatsu, Heian, Spring and Autumn Warring States, and medieval eras.
"Ver. 3.5.0," which began operating in May, added the new "Ancient" era, bringing in heroes such as Carthaginian general Hannibal, Macedonian king Alexander the Great, and Taigong Wang, the forefather of strategists. It is the latest installment in the Taisen series and is billed as its culmination.
In this revival collaboration, popular characters from the TV anime "The Elusive Samurai" appear as physical warrior cards, including protagonist Hojo Tokiyuki (北条時行), Kojiro (弧次郎), Ayako (亜也子), and Suwa Yorishige (諏訪頼重). They fight on the same battlefield as the warriors of Eiketsu Taisen.
