GameCentral looks forward to a new year of board game and trading card releases, with news on Warhammer, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Dungeons & Dragons, and more. 2025 is the year of the trading card game. In every gaming café across the country you have to fight through swathes of One Piece players just to get to the counter, while social media is rife with rumours of the new League Of Legends Project K. The trading card game calendar is filling up with big events, such as The Pokémon World Championship in Anaheim, California and there’s plenty of desperate Disney fans keen for Lorcana to announce the date of their World Championship event.

The Pokémon Company has also had huge success with the Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket mobile app, which continues to top the mobile game charts and is due to introduce online trading at the end of this month, which will completely shake up the meta. UK trainers are also hoping that the McDonald’s X Pokémon happy meals will make their way to the UK, as they have codes for Pocket digital currency.

If card games aren’t your thing don’t worry, as there’s plenty of other interesting tabletop games coming out this year, with many more to be announced in the months to come, but for now these are the most exciting new releases that have been confirmed so far.

The Las Vegas Open tabletop convention in January had a lot to get excited about, including some shapely new Eldar figures, but what I can’t stop thinking about, now the paint has dried on Hera the Bride of Death’s questionable features, is the new Soulblight Gravelords miniatures. The new miniatures showcase some stunning new sculpts, reinforcing the faction’s undead dominance with a mix of fresh characters and units. These models are impressively creepy, with sharp details that capture an eerie, otherworldly vibe.
