Dinosaur King is a 2005 card-based arcade video game from Sega that uses similar gameplay mechanics to Mushiking. The game was revealed in JAMMA 2005. A Nintendo DS version was also later released.

In the fall of 2008, Upper Deck Company released a Dinosaur King Trading Card Game. This card game is likely to be confused with the cards used for the arcade machines.

The series has been adapted into an anime television series produced by Sunrise, Ancient Ruler Dinosaur King DKidz Adventure that aired between February 4, 2007, and January 27, 2008, in Japan. A second series called Ancient Ruler Dinosaur King DKidz Adventure: Pterosaur Legend aired between February 3 and August 31, 2008, in Japan.
