TGN Studios is Proud to Present the
Summoner’s Nexus TCG

Summoner’s Nexus has been in development since 2021, built from the ground up to offer a truly unique, player-first experience. I hope players will love it as much as we do.

T.S. Babayemi

  • Drawing inspiration from beloved games like Yu-Gi-Oh and Marvel Snap, it blends familiar mechanics with innovative elements to create something entirely fresh. Scheduled for release in 2025, Summoner’s Nexus promises to bring an exciting and immersive experience to players everywhere.
  • The game is based on a fantasy novel of the same name, written by TGN Founder T.S. Babayemi, adding depth and lore that enriches the gameplay. With a small but deeply passionate team behind it, every aspect of the game has been crafted with care and dedication to ensure that players feel truly connected to the world and its characters.

As we approach the release, we can’t wait to share the results of our hard work with players around the world.

The Minds Behind the Fantasy

The Gaming Nexus Studios Ltd

Founded in 2022, our indie game studio has focused on bringing creative and innovative gaming experiences to life. Summoner's Nexus, our flagship trading card game, predates this, and has been in development since 2020.

We’ve put years of planning into the game's future, with multiple expansions and in-game events already mapped out to keep the experience fresh for years to come. The game has been developed using personal resources, freelance talent from platforms like Fiverr, and outsourcing to Nigeria, where the company has deep roots.

Originally envisioned as a Yu-Gi-Oh! fan series for YouTube, Summoner’s Nexus quickly grew into a webtoon, and from there, into a full-fledged original series that inspired the TCG. Our small team is deeply committed to keeping the game alive for a long time, and we plan to manage the community directly through our Discord server.

In addition to Summoner's Nexus, we have other exciting gaming projects currently in development. Having successfully raised £3,000 through our first Kickstarter, we plan to do more crowdfunding in the future and are always grateful for the support of our growing fanbase.
