This recent announcement also came with news about an update coming to the Switch version in 2020 as well.įor anyone looking to get into Yu-Gi-Oh, either for the first time or returning, Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution's newest platform releases should be a great introduction to the series. At the moment, only the Japanese release has been confirmed, and an exact date still hasn't even been announced for this release.
However, players will soon be able to try out Link Evolution on their gaming platform of choice, thanks to the game spreading out onto PS4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. Players can build decks from a list of over 9,000 cards and duel AI combatants as well as online players, giving Yu-Gi-Oh pros a chance to test metas long before searching online for specific cards. Taking a similar approach to the Trading Card Game as Magic: The Gathering Arena, the Link Evolution title gives players a chance to use and learn about the massive collection of cards currently available in the series before buying the cards. Since the game launched, Link Evolution has enjoyed a fairly positive response from the still thriving fanbase for Yu-Gi-Oh inspired video games. Konami went on to confirm the new platform releases on the company's official website, claiming that the game will be available at some point in 2020 in Japan. The announcement for Link Evolution no longer being a Switch exclusive comes from straight from publisher Konami at Jump Festa 2020 this past weekend. The relatively well-received title managed to duck under the current fad of review bombing Switch exclusives long enough to earn itself ports to PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Some gamers might be surprised to know that the Yu-Gi-Oh series is still pumping out games to this day, and some might even have been excited when Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution launched on Switch earlier this year.
