While Yu-Gi-Oh’s Yugi Moto was revealed a few weeks ago for the upcoming manga fighter Jump Force, we haven’t really seen him in action yet. Thankfully, Bandai Namco has provided a new trailer for the game showing exactly how the card-slinger fights.
While it’s been sometime since I have familiarized myself with the card-battling story of Yu-Gi-Oh, my understanding is that Duel Monsters’ eponymous monsters were holograms created by the weird thing they wore on their arms, which is clearly not the case here. Yugi fights using corporeal versions of Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl and finishes enemies with a certain legendary monster.
It’s unclear if Yugi will have different monsters to play with, but for now his bread and butter seems to be the two Dark Magicians in his deck.
Jump Force releases on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in February.
