2018 Board and Card Game Releases: The Complete List

The following is a list of all board and card games released in 2018 in alphabetical order. The list only includes titles that are already available on store shelves or for purchase online. All upcoming 2018 games are omitted from this list (but are included on our list of Upcoming Board Games). This list is as complete as possible (since board game release dates are very hard to find) but if you notice I am missing a game on this list (that is actually available right now), feel free to let me know in the comments section and I will make sure to add it. I will update this post whenever more 2018 board games are released.

If you are planning on purchasing any of these board games on Amazon, ordering through this link (or any other Amazon links on this post) will give us a small cut of the sale price to help keep the blog running.

If you have any board or card games you would like us to cover on this blog (whether they are on this list or not), feel free to contact us.
