Bandai Namco is set to launch Digimon Alysion, a digital rendition of the beloved Digimon Card Game, on Android and iOS platforms. This free-to-play game, announced during Digimon Con 2025 on March 19th, promises exciting new features, though an exact release date remains undisclosed. Alongside this announcement, Bandai Namco shared updates on other projects, including the continuation of Digimon Liberator into a new arc in April 2025. They also celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Digimon anime with a special video and unveiled new ventures like Digimon Adventure: Beyond and Digimon Story: Time Stranger, an RPG for consoles and PC.
If You Play Digimon Card Game, Alysion Isn’t the Same
Digimon Alysion isn’t just a direct port of the physical card game. It introduces innovative 'DigiAly' cards, designed specifically for this digital version, alongside the original cards. Bandai Namco is also expanding the universe with new Digimon and characters. The game's character lineup features an all-female cast, a unique choice for a digital card game that has sparked some skepticism among fans expecting a more traditional adaptation of the physical game.
This isn't Bandai Namco's first foray into Digimon mobile gaming, with previous attempts falling short of expectations. Consequently, there's a mix of anticipation and caution surrounding Digimon Alysion's potential success. Despite this, excitement builds as a closed beta test is planned, though details are yet to be revealed. For the latest updates, fans can visit the official website or follow their X account.
