A new and free-to-play Yu-Gi-Oh! game has been stealth released. More specifically, as of tonight, Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X users can download Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel for free. As you may know, the highly-anticipated Yu-Gi-Oh game was announced last year but had no release date, which is why today’s release is considered a stealth release.
According to Konami, Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel is the definitive version of the card game, which is why so many fans of the series are excited for it after a saturation of variations and spin-offs from the core experience. The way Konami has described the game, it’s going to be the premier Yu-Gi-Oh! video game going forward, which means players should expect tons of support, but for now, this is just an assumption.
