Yu-Gi-Oh!: Legacy of the Duelist keeps the basics intact. Despite later seasons addressing these obscene errors, breaking the rules secured Yu-Gi-Oh! its fame. Many characters – Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey chief among them – routinely summoned high-level monsters without tributing weaker ones, or disregarded the actions written on trap and spell cards. For those not in the know, the Duelist Kingdom saga – the show’s original story line – adhered to its own laws. That means harnessing the strength of Yugi’s Dark Magician or Joey’s Red-Eyes Black Dragon on occasion, though hardcore viewers will spot compromises to the anime’s formula elsewhere. The decks you encounter contain the exact cards the protagonists used. As a bonus, decks that stockpile overpowered cards – Mirror Force, Monster Reborn, and Pot of Greed to name a few – ensure wins come early and often. How will you fare with Yusei’s Stardust Dragon versus the Dark Signers? Developer Other Ocean fleshes out each campaign through roughly 30 duels, so fans old and new should find a few fate-of-the-world clashes they remember. Is it time for Jaden’s Elemental Heroes to throw down against the Sacred Beasts? Always.

Can you overcome Maximillion Pegasus and his Thousand-Eyes Restrict? Prove it. That includes Duelist Kingdom’s debut, Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal ’s ridiculous climax, and every iteration in between. Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist carves out a piece of that sentimental pie as well, though the skin-and-bones presentation undermines the card game and anime’s spirit.įour campaigns (and one duel from Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V ) present Legacy of the Duelist ’s primary appeal: reliving classic battles from the original anime and its spinoffs.

Sony made rumors a reality thanks to an official Final Fantasy VII remake trailer The Coalition earned brownie points with Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, which pleased fans with its remastered features and the upcoming Lego Dimensions wrings childhood memories from Back to the Future, Scooby-Doo, Doctor Who, The Simpsons, plus a dozen more films and television series. No avid gamers could deny that nostalgia shaped the industry’s summer announcements and releases.
