Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel is a free-to-play with in-app purchases, digital collectible card game developed by Konami for the iOS, Android, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch platforms, based on the "Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game". It was released January 19, 2022 to positive reviews and rapidly climbed to the top of the Steam charts. On February 6, Konami announced the game had been downloaded over 10 million times. Development. Development of the title began in 2019 as a follow on from Yu -Gi-Oh! Duel Links, released in 2017. Konami wanted to develop a new game that would appeal to more experienced players, as opposed to Duel Links which was for more casual players. During the development of the game, the idea arose of implementing a game mode that could be played alone, participating in duels against the AI. This eventually led to the implementation of Solo Mode in Master Duel. Reception. "Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel" received "generally favorable" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.
