The new animated series Chaotic will preview this weekend on 4Kids Ent.’s four-hour Saturday morning programming block on Fox affiliates nationwide. Created by 4Kids Ent. and Chaotic USA Entertainment Group, and produced by 4Kids Prods. and Bardel Ent., the show is based on a trading card game coming out early next year. The series premieres on Saturday, Oct. 7, at 10:30 a.m. but viewers can catch the special preview this Saturday, Sept. 30, at 10:30 a.m. (ET).
Chaotic centers on two teenage boys who discover that the Chaotic Trading Card Game they’ve been playing is more than a game. A secret portal transports them to Chaotic, a parallel universe where the game comes to life. The boys realize that the unique codes on their trading cards are actually scans of real, living creatures with unique powers from the realm of Perim. They then use these fierce beings to help further their gaming skills as they capture the codes of new creatures, new battle gear and new locations in which to compete.
The TV series will reveal battle strategies that will help kids master the Chaotic Trading Card Game, a multimedia experience that will allow kids to upload their personal card collection and trade online at www.chaoticgame.com after the game’s early 2007 launch. Following its debut on Satuday, the series premiere will be immediately available for viewing at www.4kids.tv/chaotic.
