Screenshots are in for the trading card game Hototogisu Tairan 1553: Ryuuko Aiutsu, which was just announced for Switch via this week’s issue of Famitsu. View them below.

We also have a few more tidbits:

– Collect cards drawn by various popular illustrators, assemble a deck, and use that deck to battle
– Two phases
– Tactical Phase: use any card from your hand, such as a strategy or promotion card, and manifest its effect onto the field
– Battle Phase: the units deployed onto the field will move and attack
– The order of movement is based on how high a unit’s stats are for both enemies and allies
– Players can enjoy strategies such as making the first move with fast units, or surrounding the enemy for a formation effect
– eShop title
