Konami has announced a new title in their series of Yu-Gi-Oh! games — Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution — and it is coming to Switch.

While details are light at the moment, Gematsu has translated and confirmed some early details from the game’s official website.

It is understood that the game will adapt the popular and long-running game into a console format, but will allow players to face off against characters from the anime series as well as other players around the world. In addition, the game will feature the “New Master Rules”, which are the latest rules adopted within the card game.

More information will be shared when it is known.

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. For the second week in a row, Animal Crossing for Switch holds on to the second spot.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between January 17 and January 23.
