Bandai Namco Unveils Digimon Alysion: Digital Card Game

Bandai Namco is set to launch Digimon Alysion, a digital rendition of the Digimon Card Game, on Android and iOS platforms. This free-to-play game, announced at Digimon Con 2025 on March 19th, doesn't have a confirmed release date yet. During the same event, Bandai Namco shared exciting updates including the continuation of Digimon Liberator with a new arc in April 2025. They also celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Digimon anime with a special video and unveiled new projects like Digimon Adventure: Beyond and a console/PC RPG titled Digimon Story: Time Stranger.

Digimon Alysion: A Fresh Take on the Card Game

Digimon Alysion isn't just a direct port of the physical card game; it introduces innovative 'DigiAly' cards alongside the traditional cards, designed specifically for this mobile version. Additionally, Bandai Namco is bringing in new Digimon and characters to enrich the gameplay. Notably, the game features an all-female character lineup, which has sparked some debate among fans who were expecting a more faithful adaptation of the original game.

This isn't Bandai Namco's first foray into Digimon mobile gaming, and their previous attempts have met with mixed results. With two prior unsuccessful launches, there's understandable skepticism regarding the success of Digimon Alysion. Despite this, anticipation for the game remains high, and a closed beta test is currently in the planning stages, though specifics are yet to be disclosed. For the latest updates, keep an eye on the official website and their X account.
