The Digimon franchise is getting a new entry on 3DS in Japan, and Bandai Namco has provided some more details by opening their official site. The game bases itself (logically) around the fact that, with smartphone apps becoming very popular in the world, new Digimon have come into existence. These special Digimon, called Appmon (short for Appli Monsters), are the basis of the game. Players will build decks around Appmon, which can then grow, fight, and link with other Appmon. New Appmon can also be acquired via QR code. Furthermore, Appmon can be combined via a process called Appfusion to create new Appmon (for example, the website shows that fusing Gacchimon and Navimon will create Dogacchimon).

Though the game is due out on the Japanese eShop this fall, neither a localized release nor a retail release have been announced or dated.
