Bandai Namco is set to launch Digimon Alysion, a mobile adaptation of the popular Digimon Card Game, available on Android and iOS as a free-to-play title. While an exact release date remains undisclosed, anticipation is building for this new venture into the digital realm of Digimon.
The announcement came during Digimon Con 2025 on March 19th, where Bandai Namco also shared exciting updates, including the continuation of Digimon Liberator with a new arc in April 2025. The event featured a special video celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Digimon anime and unveiled a new project, Digimon Adventure: Beyond. Additionally, fans can look forward to a new RPG, Digimon Story: Time Stranger, coming to consoles and PC.
If You Play Digimon Card Game, Alysion Isn’t the Same
Digimon Alysion isn't just a digital replica of the physical card game. It introduces unique 'DigiAly' cards, complementing the original set with cards designed specifically for this mobile version. Alongside these, Bandai Namco plans to introduce new Digimon and characters, adding fresh elements to the game.
The character lineup featured on the website leans heavily towards an all-female cast, a choice that has sparked some curiosity and skepticism among fans. Many were expecting a more direct adaptation of the physical game, and the new direction has raised questions about how well it will be received.
This isn't Bandai Namco's first foray into Digimon mobile gaming, and their past attempts have met with mixed results. With two previous unsuccessful tries, there's a cautious optimism surrounding Digimon Alysion. Despite this, the community remains eager to see what the game will bring.
A closed beta test for Digimon Alysion is on the horizon, though specifics are still under wraps. For the latest updates and more information, fans are encouraged to visit the official website or follow their X account.
