Release Date: February 27, 2025
A collection of 14 classic games from the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga universe. Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection primarily features various card games, however we can also find turn-based strategies or RPGs. This package also offers new features, including rewinding time, browsing manuals or having online multiplayer.
Yu-Gi-Oh! The Early Days Collection is a compilation of fourteen classic games set in the universe created for the manga titled Yu-Gi-Oh!, which began in 1996. The compilation was developed by Digital Eclipse studio, known for refreshing older games, while its release was handled by Konami, the company overseeing the brand.
This compilation consists of the following games:
In most cases, we are dealing with card games, in which we engage in duels, playing cards that represent specific monsters, spells, and traps, trying to reduce our opponents' life points to zero.
There are exceptions, though. Yu-Gi-Oh! Monster Capsule and Yu-Gi-Oh! Dungeon Dice Monsters are turn-based strategies. Yu-Gi-Oh! The Sacred Cards and Yu-Gi-Oh: Reshef of Destruction are RPGs. Yu-Gi-Oh! Destiny Board Traveler is a social board game.
As a standalone position, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 6: Expert 2 is available only in the Japanese language version. In other languages, we can check it out under the title Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition: Stairway to the Destined Duel.
Compared to the original versions, individual titles from Yu-Gi-Oh! The Early Days Collection stand out due to new features, led by the ability to fast forward or rewind time, as well as saving the game state at any moment.
Additionally, the package offers a range of options that allow us to customize the gameplay to individual preferences. We can unlock hidden characters and cards, remove the deck limit, remove the level of duel and cards from the list of banned or limited items, as well as remap original buttons.
There is also a digital gallery that allows us to take a close look at the packaging and instructions for each game.
Although most of the games that make up the compilation can only be played locally, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 4: Battle of Great Duelists also offers the possibility of conducting multiplayer duels over the Internet.

Game Ratings for Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection Video Game.
Siliconera: 7 / 10 by Cody Perez
The Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection is one of the most impressive sets of value and nostalgia with a handful of excellent games. Admittedly, many of the games are filler, but there are around 5 or 6 games like The Sacred Cards that are worth your time and still hold up well even today.
Niche Gamer: 8.9 / 10 by Matt Kowalski
At the end of the day, if you are looking to play The Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection to just relive or experience some of the beloved early games then it is worth picking up. If you are looking to battle against other duelists, then it might be better to hold off on picking up this collection until there are more multiplayer options.
ZTGD: 7.5 / 10 by Anthony Mann
It’s a good collection, but it could be even better. It could be great.
