Trading Card Game
editIn the main-line card game, Illusion-type monsters were introduced in April 2023 with the release of the set Duelist Nexus. No new summoning mechanics or Master Rules were added.
Rush Duels
editA new monster Type for Rush Duels was introduced with the advent of the anime, named Galaxy. It is used by the protagonist, Yudias.
In August 2022, a new mechanic for Rush Duels debuted in the anime, known as Equip Spells.[14] They were later released in October. These function similar to Equip Spells from the main game.
Following a rule update in January 2023,[15] unofficially called "Rush Master Rule 2", players are now allowed to use one Legend card per Card Type in a deck (one Spell, one Trap, and one Monster).
The Rush Duel format was added worldwide to Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links beginning September 28, 2023.[16] A world based on Go Rush!! was added to the game in late 2024.[17]
