Hasbro has partnered with Wizards of the Coast for a new franchise entitled Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters. The property will launch across multiple platforms, including an online game, trading card game and a television series produced by Hasbro Studios that will air on The Hub TV network in the U.S.
