The Latest World of Warcraft^®

Trading Card Game Expansion Set:

Blood of Gladiators

Eighth WoW TCG booster set launches Today!

North Las Vegas, NV (March 24, 2008) – The arena gates open. The crowd roars. The Gladiators emerge. Even in death, a Gladiator’s legacy lives forever. Dare you risk everything for such glory? The Upper Deck Company is pleased to announce that the next World of Warcraft® Trading Card Game expansion, Blood of Gladiators, launches worldwide on Tuesday, March 24, 2009. Blood of Gladiators, the eighth booster set in the World of Warcraft® TCG, continues the third year of the award-winning trading card game with all-new content including three characters from the World of Warcraft® comic book with art supplied by world-renowned artist Jim Lee!

Hitting store shelves this week, Blood of Gladiators expands upon the game’s current PvP action and new Arena theme. Building on the Arena cards from Drums of War, Blood of Gladiators offers new Arena location cards including the much-contested Gurubashi Arena. Also featuring a new card type, the Duel Faction Ally, Blood of Gladiators allows players to engage in colossal one-on-one battles or to team up for the most intense multiplayer action you can find in a TCG!

On top of all this, Blood of Gladiators also contains new Loot™ cards, giving World of Warcraft® fans access to exclusive online items! More randomly inserted Loot™ cards mean more opportunities to open cosmetic upgrades for your World of Warcraft® online character. The new Loot™ cards include: “Sandbox Tiger,” a super-common Loot™ card that brings out the kid in everyone, offering playground-like rides on an adorable Spectral Tiger; “Center of Attention,” an uncommon Loot™ card that’s sure to capture every eye as you don an epic purple shirt and strike a pose; and “Foam Sword Rack,” a rare Loot™ card that lets you break out a big foam sword and battle anyone near you. Once you bring out the rack, anyone can pick up a sword and start swinging!
