The second series of Kid Icarus AR cards will be shipping as of today and will be distributed by Nintendo.

The new series of cards will bring different characters, enemies, weapons and items that appear in Kid Icarus: Uprising. For the first time, players will find AR cards that represent locations found within the game.

What's more, an environment card alongside two character cards will allow a battle to commence in the location that is on the card. Pretty cool huh?

Unfortunately there are no plans to retail these cards so they will be available exclusively at retail events. Sadly, all these events are based in the US for now so there's no joy for European players just yet...
