October 2024 App Update: New Features & Leaks!

October 31st Update

Happy Halloween! KONAMI has released v2.1.0 of Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel - and it's a reasonably sized update, clocking in at ~320mb on Mobile and 1GB on PC (with consoles somewhere in the middle).

There's a bunch of new features, and a few small hints/leaks as to upcoming content so here's the quick recap (more information available in-game patch notes)

Upcoming Cards?

The new Master Duel splash screen features Loading... , whilst the mobile app icon now features Loading... from The Infinite Forbidden, hinting as Yugi's Loading... series of cards may be arriving sooner than later!

IDs

• Auto-Build Deck (This seems to be the same feature from DUEL LINKS)
• Replay Slot: Increases the maximum number of replays you can keep saved by 1.
• Loading... added as Match Finisher (doesn't mean it's releasing soon, they also added early code support for Ryzeal, Maliss etc as they do every core App Update)

Mission Tutorial Leaks

• Increase your Dan ranking: *Increase your Dan ranking with the MD test
• Publish your replay: View other users' published replays

Notable New Features

You can find a full change list in-game, but here's the cliff notes of the major new features you can find live right now!

• Boost Generate now allows you to target Glossy/Royal Finishes instead of wasting extra resources.
• Replays has a new UI, allowing you to Tag each replay as well as edit the featured cards for each players deck - perfect for sharing with friends!
• Like in DUEL LINKS, you can now see your Main and Extra Deck mid-game from the settings menu, just incase you forget whether you actually added that game-determining card!
• You can designate up to 50 cards that you want to prevent from being dismantled.
