"The STARGATE franchise has an impressive legacy and we've put a lot of effort into making the game an authentic and engaging experience that captures that legacy both in online and tabletop formats," said Scott Martins, Director of Development for SOE-Denver. "SG-1 lays the foundation for several planned expansions, including sets based on STARGATE ATLANTIS. Expansions will not only incorporate familiar content from the show, they'll offer players a multitude of new strategic options."

The STARGATE Online TCG challenges players to assemble teams of their favorite characters and send them on missions throughout the galaxy. Players learn from their successes and enhance their abilities as the game progresses.

With three unique ways to win and nearly 300 cards in the initial set, players have an endless supply of strategies available as they take on alternating roles of both heroes and villains from the STARGATE universe.
