Bandai Namco Announces Digimon Alysion, Digital Version of Digimon Card Game

Bandai Namco is set to launch Digimon Alysion, a new mobile game that brings the excitement of the Digimon Card Game to Android and iOS devices. This free-to-play title was officially announced at Digimon Con 2025 on March 19th, though an exact release date has yet to be disclosed.

During the same event, Bandai Namco shared additional 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 such as Digimon Adventure: Beyond and a new RPG, Digimon Story: Time Stranger, slated for release on consoles and PC.

Digimon Alysion: More Than Just a Card Game

Digimon Alysion is not merely a digital replica of the physical Digimon Card Game. It introduces a new feature called ‘DigiAly’ cards, alongside the original cards, designed specifically for this mobile version. Additionally, Bandai Namco is set to include new Digimon and characters, diversifying the game's roster.

The game's character lineup, predominantly featuring an all-girls cast, marks a unique direction for a digital card game. This choice has sparked some skepticism among fans, particularly those who were expecting a more faithful adaptation of the physical game.

This isn't Bandai Namco's first foray into Digimon mobile gaming. Their previous attempts have not been successful, leading to some reservations about the potential success of Digimon Alysion. Despite this, anticipation for the game remains high, and a closed beta test is currently in the planning stages, though details are still under wraps.
