For the first time ever the Yu-Gi-Oh series, which was well welcomed as an anime and even more welcomed as a trading card game across various platforms such as the PSP and the Ds (to name a few) has finally made its way to the Xbox 360 as an XBLA title. Konami has done a great job with the Yu-Gi-Oh series, having spanned past ten years. Konami will again be behind this one. With a fan base of ten years plus there’s plenty of people who have left the card based strategy game and come back, so for those of you who have been away for awhile, I’m happy to announce that Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds Decade Duels will include cards from Yu-Gi-Oh the original series, Yu-Gi-Oh GX and 5D’s. So if you’re not too familiar with the most recent cards you can easily still compete with what you know.

Yu-Gi-Oh 5D’s Decade Duels boast to take advantage of next gen tech by introducing XBL voice chat and text chat for everyone to socialize, and a leader board for those who would like to track their progress and also their friends progress. This game will support 1- 4 players in the form of tag duels (2v2). Aside from tag duels Yu-Gi-Oh will offer 3 modes, rank matches which will lock you up with another duelist of similar rank and skill, and for those looking to just get in and go Yu-Gi-Oh will offer quick match, which will match you up with anybody on XBL regardless of skill and rank. Last but most interesting Yu-Gi-Oh will offer custom matches which will allow you to duel against your friends with any type of custom rules that you set. In the past there has been various ban lists that have come out every year stopping you from playing with particular cards that were dubbed to powerful, we can assume this was part of the motivation for custom matches, now duelist will be able to put together killer decks and use strategies that they couldn’t use on previous Yu-Gi-Oh titles.

This new feature should become very popular insuring that that the community will continuously be creating custom games, custom rules from you and your opponent’s life point down to how many cards you can hold in your hand. Konami said the game will have a single player, most likely built around your race to the fortune cup, and will allow you to collect new cards as you progress through the games storyline, and if you don’t have time to play the single player to collect more cards then you can always purchase cards, decks and deck recipes through the Xbox live marketplace.
