The next Yu-Gi-Oh video game is here with the much-anticipated Yu-Gi-Oh Cross Duel. After months of waiting, we finally have a release date for this intriguing new trading card game.
When is Yu-Gi-Oh Cross Duel releasing?
Revealed in a press release from Konami, hardcore Yu-Gi-Oh fans won’t have to wait long to play the new video game. With the recent Master Duel still going strong, this new release aims to add something new to the field.
Releasing on Android and iOS on September 6th, Cross Duel will give you wild four-player duels. Never before seen in a Yu-Gi-Oh game, this four-way game mode offers a unique take on the TCG genre.
Not only will you be able to take place in four-player versus matches, but also co-op games. Furthermore, there’s single player content to play through if the idea of online makes you wet your deck.
Even better, fans of the anime will be able to battle alongside their favourite characters. Faces from all seven series of Yu-Gi-Oh will turn up. Hopefully, we’ll be able to play alongside that hottie, Seto Kaiba. He’s rich, but he’s sensitive, aw.

Is it too different?
Some hardcore fans may end up disillusioned with Yu-Gi-Oh Cross Duel. The four-player multiplayer game does take some liberties with the classic TCG to the point that it may be off-putting.
Nevertheless, it’s fun that Konami is willing to experiment with the series. After all, experimentation is what gave us the fantastic Duel Links speed duel format. We think that’s one of the best Android card games out there!
Sure, the introduction of skills may alter the game in massive ways, but so did links and pendulums. If anything, these skills will be a splash in the bucket.
