Kazuma Kaneko’s Switch card game will include 3,600 AI-generated cards

Kazuma Kaneko, the legendary “Demon Designer” behind Shin Megami Tensei and Persona, has a new card game called Kazuma Kaneko’s Tsukuyomi coming to Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 on April 23. Colopl announced the release during a livestream; the standard game is priced at $24.99 and a special Shinma Artist Box edition is being sold for roughly $640.

Colopl told Gematsu that the Switch version will port a curated set of AI-produced cards from the previous mobile title: "The Switch version takes a curated amount of those AI generated cards from the previous game and includes them in the new game. The Switch version does not include the generative AI model to create new cards beyond the cards that the team has put into the Switch version." That curated set totals 3,600 cards.

The new title follows Colopl’s earlier free-to-play partnership with Kaneko, Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter, which allowed players to create their own AI artwork cards via an "AI Kaneko" mechanic. In that game an in‑game Kazuma Kaneko would analyze playstyles and gift AI-generated cards drawn from a library of Kaneko’s work; the new Switch game similarly features Kaneko appearing in-game, or at least an AI recreation of him.
