Following the worldwide rollout of Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel (Free) on iOS and Android after the initial launch, Konami has begun the first in-game event for the game on all platforms. This event is the XYZ Festival that arrives alongside a new solo mode ‘gate’ and more. At launch, Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel crossed 260k concurrent players on Steam, and it has been doing well ever since with more than 160k players on Steam right now. The Yu-Gi-Oh!
