Grand Archive TCG is an English-language trading card game published by Weebs of the Shore LLC, an American studio, with its first commercial release on October 6, 2023. The game blends anime-inspired artwork with design conventions drawn from competitive Western TCGs, aiming to correct common pain points found in earlier games. Its defining mechanic is the Memory system: any card from a player's hand may be placed face-down as a resource, eliminating the mana-flood and mana-drought problems endemic to resource-based card games. Each player brings two decks to a match, a 60-card Main Deck and a smaller Material Deck containing champion and regalia cards. Play begins with a spirit form and progresses through materialization into a champion; the goal is to reduce the opposing champion to zero life. The first standard set, Dawn of Ashes, launched April 28, 2023 (with an Alter Edition following in October 2023) and introduced 275 unique cards. Subsequent releases include Fractured Crown (August 2023), Alchemical Revolution (January 2024), Mercurial Heart (May 2024), Mortal Ambition (October 2024), Abyssal Heaven (March 2025), Distorted Reflections (July 2025), and Phantom Monarchs (December 2025), with further sets announced into 2026. The game is actively in print.
