The many legendary films are hidden behind the new trading card game, which is the result of the cooperation between Ravensburger and Disney. There is also a lot of film history behind Lorcana.
Disney films are a highlight. It doesn't matter whether it's classics like Alice in Wonderland or modern animated films like Frozen. For 100 years now, viewers have grown fond of the countless Disney characters. Write life story. So it's no wonder that the Lorcana trading card game is proving to be a bestseller worldwide. And if you want to know whether your favorite character or film has already found its way into the Lorcana Great Illuminary universe, you've come to the right place.
One hundred years of Disney film history provide a lot of material for the Lorcana trading card game. And this despite the fact that in the 1930s hardly anyone could imagine that Mickey and his friends would become a worldwide cult in the future. Today, Disney and its studios produce film hits in various genres every year. But even classics, such as The Little Mermaid Ariel, rarely lose popularity and can easily compete with modern film titles à la Frozen.
Lorcana Cards: Lots of Disney film history
Already now, in the first chapter of Lorcana, some of the most popular Disney films can be discovered on the playing cards. Modern and classic titles are balanced. Thanks to the many Disney studios, the future chapters of the trading card game give players hope for something strange. Lucasfilm and Marvel, among others, belong to the Disney Studios. Can fans look forward to duels between Dr. Strange and R2D2 are happy? It seems possible, but it hasn't been officially announced yet. However, as Filip Francke, head of games at Ravensburger, told the Los Angeles Times, a large repertoire of exciting characters is possible. At least in theory, any animated short or film could serve as inspiration.
“Anything in a Disney animated short or film is fair game, and it will need to be”
Filip Francke (Ravensburger) in the LA Times
Disney Lorcana is not only packed with timeless memories of our favorite childhood films, modern titles also appear on the playing cards in the form of the game characters. A great mix, in our opinion. Because let's be honest, even today, long out of our infancy, animated films like Moana (Moana) or Frozen (Frozen) are catching up with us. If your personal favorite film cannot be found in the first chapter of Disney Lorcana, there is a chance that the corresponding cards will be waiting to be used in the game in a future chapter, in one of the booster packs.
