At Jump Fiesta 2021 Online this weekend, Konami announced Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel was in development for the Switch.
This latest take on the card game series first appeared in Japan alongside the Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS anime earlier this year, and is the seventh Yu-Gi-Oh! show. Gematsu provides a little extra insight about what players can expect from the Switch version:
Players can Normal Summon any number of monsters from their hand in one turn, as well as draw until at least five cards are in their hand.
In the Switch game, players will be able to battle against the characters that appear in the Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS anime.
The anime itself hasn't even been localised yet, although a trademark for an English version was filed in June this year. If this goes ahead, perhaps the Switch game will follow.
If you want a Yu-Gi-Oh! fix sooner rather than later, why not try out Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution which is available on the Switch eShop right now.

I loved yu-gi-oh at some point If it whent on sale I would pick it up.
Are those the new rules of the actual game or just a variant for this specific videogame?
Like... they may sound like a small changes, but gosh... that will dramatically change the game's pace and strategies. Can't deny I am at the very least interested to hear more.
@BakaKnight Rush Duels are a different style of Yugioh with it's own cards & ruleset. But we don't have Rush Duels in the West so I assume we're not getting this game so...
I kind of get obsessed when playing Yu-gi-oh video games. So this is good news for me.
Still waiting for an Igavania collection on Switch. :’)
Truthfully I'd like them to remaster Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom. After playing so many of the card games, I'd like some Varity.
Though I'd also like to play Duelist of the Roses too. What a Great plot.
Loved Yu-Gi-Oh on NDS, why they dont release a classic game with old characters? i don't know the new kids
@dimi The Link Evolution on the Switch has all of them. The main campaign is literally going through the story of every single anime. You can also use the character deck if you want to (that is, use Yugi's deck when playing as Yugi and Joey's deck when playing as Joey).
It's a very good game for those who left along the way and aren't interested on catching up with the latest.
The only games I want to hear announced from Konami are Silent Hills and Metal Gear Solid, even if it is just the remastered games of past entries.
I love to collect Yu-Gi-Oh games! The GBA 2006 GX tournament ones are amazing! The DS ones are very good as well!
My favorite one is the one on the Switch! I love the story mode!
And contrary to most people the GX seasons are my favorite! The only one I couldn't watch is the last one as it was not dubbed in English. I dislike watching in Japanese
We do have rush duels here. You can even buy the precons for it. I have the blue eyes one. Its a damn shame though, I really liked legacy of the duelist and its extensive library. Would be the literal perfect duel simulator if it just had the bug fixes to stop it from crashing
@Snatcher
Its been $20 = 50% off physical for the past few weeks in the US
I guess the series isn't dead after all. 😐
I really shouldn't be upset about this since I don't have to play any of these games. I guess hearing announcements of new games reminds me of the cartoon which I thought was utterly ridiculous and overly melodramatic.
I really crave for a TGC game that I got sucked into with a lot if collecting, events and (yes I say it) mtx and boosters.
But I just can't get into the looks of YGO. The cards look terrible in my opinion.
Hopefully Magic Arena will come at some point. But seeing how long they took to even get it going for Mac ...

You have a typo, it's "Festa" not "fiesta".
Escalation has really made this and MTG unplayable. Gotta get them to buy the next set, so the next set has to wipe the floor with every card already out there. Rinse and repeat for a few decades and a good hand from a perfectly constructed deck can defeat anyone on the first round. I have a deck that summons a 2800/3000 card on the first round on 15% of all possible draws.
But if you want to use the cards you actually like or remember from growing up your lucky to have a single summon with over 1400 on your second turn.
I love Yu-Gi-Oh. I have my own Blue Eyes White Dragon deck. In an online website where I can make a deck and start dueling, I made a deck of 2 of my favorite Dragons each: Blue-Eyes and Red-Eyes.
I have decided to start trying Red-Eyes because I feel like it can surpass Blue Eyes in many ways and I think it is more fun to play as Red Eyes.
Nevertheless, I love both Red Eyes and Blue Eyes. Excited for this game to come out
Wait there are different protagonists? Hmm starting to feel my age a bit.
(It’s a joke)
@Ryu_Niiyama
Probably a language thing more then an age thing. I think only one series was ever translated or officially in the west. So most of us only know the one protagonist from Dual Masters, not the ones from the like ... 9 other series of Manga?
I'm the same. I loved Yu-gi-oh, but by the time my Japanese was anywhere NEAR able to read a manga I lost interest, So I only know anything at all about the English series and I have no clue what is going on in the games.
@Ryu_Niiyama Yugi, Jaden, Yusei, are the only ones I remember, that's when I fell off the YuGiOh train. Still have my deck from my youth though!, And my God Cards!
