There's a small catch that Gazillion wants to keep players abreast of though, so nobody can call shenanigans. First, the order you see the characters listed doesn't reperesnt the order in which they'll arrive. Likewise, the fortune cards will be added as they arrive. No release date has been set. Similarly, retcon devices will be added as each character arrives, which could be anytime in 2014 or even as late as 2015.
Anyone still interested in bulking up their roster can order their advance pack here.
