The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was first released in Japan on March 4, 2000, in North America on October 26, in Europe on November 24, in Australia on November 30, and other regions thereafter.
- It is the successor to the original PlayStation as well as the second installment in the PlayStation brand of consoles.

Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The PlayStation 2 article was read about 890,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 87 and blocks with 97: each hit it takes is cut by 39 %.
How to get PlayStation 2
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
