Following the phenomenal success of Pokémon TCG Pocket, Digimon is entering the mobile card game arena with its own exciting title: Digimon Alysion. Bandai Namco has announced this free-to-play online card battler, destined for iOS and Android devices.
Currently, details are limited, with only a teaser trailer and a few snippets of information available. Unveiled during Digimon Con, Digimon Alysion promises to faithfully recreate the thrill of the physical Digimon card game in a digital format. Expect the familiar excitement of pack openings and charming pixel art depictions of your favorite Digimon.

A glimpse of several characters and Digimon suggests a potential story element, setting Digimon Alysion apart from the narratively lean Pokémon TCG Pocket. While specifics remain scarce, the inclusion of named characters hints at a more involved narrative experience.
Although a release date is yet to be announced, Gematsu reports that a closed beta test is in the works, with further details promised soon.
Given the immense popularity of Pokémon TCG Pocket, Digimon Alysion presents a compelling alternative for fans seeking a Digimon-themed card battling experience. Meanwhile, the developers of Pokémon TCG Pocket have acknowledged and are addressing concerns regarding its trading system, although significant changes may take time to implement.
Digimon Alysion appears poised to expand the accessibility of the Digimon card game to a wider audience. This could potentially reignite the classic Poké-Digi rivalry, or at the very least, provide a welcome addition to the world of collectible card games featuring beloved monsters. We eagerly anticipate further updates as Digimon Alysion progresses towards its launch.
